How do I install Allegro 5 in Visual Studio 2013 ? All I can find is how to install it on the older version of visual studio like 2010,2012.I want to know exactly the proper method to do this.

First of all download Allegro5 from: http://cdn.allegro.cc/file/library/allegro/5.0.7/allegro-5.0.7-msvc-10.0.zip
then extract the files from the downloaded Archive.
copy the folders "bin","lib" and "include" to c:\program files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\
now create/open a project and in the menu bar, click on "Project", click on " ** Properties" in the drop down menu.
Now navigate to "Linker->Input", now in the "Additional Dependencies field enter "allegro-5.0.07-monolith-md-debug.lib". and save the settings.
and you are done. just remember to include Allegro header files therein.
