Hi David, Do you mean the BB10 PVRTools project isn’t building on your machine? We tested the BB10 SDK before release and hadn’t seen any issues with it. Thanks, Joe ---

All plateform build well as you know , but your Version of BB10 miss the build script or even better the BB10 project with the bar.xml file updated. Doing it by hand make me hit some problem with gles 2 extensions. i may say that i have good extensive pratice of deploying the sdk on other plateform, following the doc or not, it just work.but here, on bb10, i meet an issue. Kind regards david ---

Hi, I've just checked the installer on Windows and the Tool's .cproject and .project are present. Are you by chance trying to build on Linux or OSX? If so, these files will be hidden from view as they begin with a full stop. Cheers, Scott ---
