Once you have the basic components installed on your computer, follow these instructions to setup the MSVS project:.
Open the openFrameworks Project Generator and click import to load the existing project directory. You should see the following addons selected: ofxGui ofxNetwork ofxOneEuroFilter ofxOsc DO NOT add ofxKinectForWindows2 yet ... we'll do that next manually. Hit Update and Open in IDE to bring up the MSVS solution.
Add ofxKinectForWindows2 project dependency to your solution. Follow the Usage instructions from the ofxKinectForWindows2 README to properly add the addon: Open the solution, and add the ofxKinectForWindows2Lib.vcxproj to your solution (right click on the Solution and choose Add > Existing Project...) In Property Manager (open it from View -> Other Windows -> Property Manager), right click on your project to select Add Existing Property Sheet... and select the ofxKinectForWindows2.props file. Go back to Solution Explorer, right click on your project (e.g. 'mySketch') and select 'Add Reference...', and add a reference to ofxKinectForWindows2Lib. In Project Properties > C/C++ > General > Additional Include Directories, add the following: $(KINECTSDK20_DIR)\inc;..\..\..\addons\ofxKinectForWindows2\src

Add the body.pb.cc and body.pb.h files from the C:\vcpkg\installed\protobuf\x64-windows\tools\protobuf\body directory.

At this point, you should see no linker or include errors in your MSVS solution. If that's not the case, double check your Project Properties file names.
