Linker error LNK1104 when trying to compile a .dlu plugin

#1

I have this problem I have the following error the plugin doesnt build since it says it cant open C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2019\plugins\CopySkin.dlu

${OutDir} is
$(ADSK_3DSMAX_x64_2019)\plugins\SkinTools.dlu

the linker output directory is
$(OutDir)$(TargetName)$(TargetExt) (C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2019\plugins\CopySkin.dlu)

so i wonder how could I fix this linker error

#2

some suggestion?

#3

just for clarification is this your own plugins or a sample from the max sdk ?

I had it on ym respos folder for visual studio, but I had solved this. I had to give a correct route to the SDK folder I think
