I did it, it costed me a week: SDKbox V2.3.2.0 for Visual Studio for cocos2d-x-3.13.1 : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwFbYJJmjqIkR1RraWJ0djE4eUE/view?usp=sharing
How you can play with it:
- Create Cocos empty cpp project;
- With console=cmd import into project sdkbox AdMob;
- Merge project with “sdkbox-sample-admob” example (google for it);
- Make sure you can successfully build and run it on the device - (test) advertising should appear;
- Then you can add unzipped
proj.visualstudio_sdkbox_for_cocos2d-x-3.13.1(make its name shorter) folder into project.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwFbYJJmjqIkaEZaOTNIRXZONDQ/view?usp=sharing - here is very short zip with key differences, with test AdMob id.
Upd: but my AdMob sample doesn’t work on my Android 2.3.6 devices… 
Hello, I’m tying to add fmod precompiled library. I’ve added the libfmodL.so and libfmodstudioL.so libraries to linker addtional dependencies, also updated the include paths and everithing compiles fine but hangs after deploy because libraries are not installed in the system.
Also added fmod.jar to the project and project libs folder, same place android-async and other .jar
dlopen("/data/app/com.CocosVisualStudio-2/lib/arm/libcocos2dcpp.so", RTLD_LAZY) failed dlopen failed: could not load library "libfomdstudioL.so" needed by "libcocos2dcpp.so"; caused by library "libfmodstudioL.so" not foud.
FATAL EXCEPTION: main
So my quiestion is wich Android.mk and or Application.mk or whatever have to edit to deploy the library with my project. I’m not Android expert at all and really struggling with this. Thanks a lot.
Is there some sort of android simulator like when using eclipse? I mean right now it is just making a window that has the design size…
Answered myself in a new thread think is big enough:
@IanHu: Could you (or someone else) please help us to add Google Play Services into VS-2015 project (to debug it on Android device from VS)? I’ve tried but no success.

@IanHu In the template for v3.13.1 from your blog, we have to copy all the resources to the “assets” directory inside the “Cocos2d” directory , or else the project will throw the segmentation exception.
I made a small change, the project is now linking all resources in Resources folder when loading projects, so it would be much easier to use.
Beside that, I created a small python script to rename to dedicated project name also. You can check it here:
Is it posible to use this with cocos 3.14.1? Thanks for such a great work.
I am not sure. I haven’t tried. I can email Ian at Microsoft and ask him if he can ensure compatibility.

Well, if not i’ll try it myself in a few weeks when i start the services side with sdkbox, hope can integrate it with relative ease using the info on this thread. I’m already using another precompiled library, fmod, and integrating it was a bit of a pain. (see my post in this same thread).
By the way, in my opinion, the andorid visual studio project is super useful and should be part of the official cocos releases.
Can I +1 the request to make this work with 3.14.
Thanks
am having setup and build issues could anyone help please.
Can anyone share a how-to of Visual Studio project VC++, Linker etc. settings ? I have never got it built using Visual Studio 2015. Not a single time.
Hi all !
A long time ago, I helped to make the VS solution, based on cocos2d-x 3.13.1, to work on VS 2015. My game project were in “StandBy” but since last week, I tried again to make it work… But I don’t succeed in making it working again 
!
I updated my environment : I use VS 2019 (Community), android NDK R15c, Java JDK V12.0.2 and ANT 1.9.3.
So with this configuration, if I compile the solution downloadable for version 3.13.1, I have this error
2>-compile:
2> [javac] Compiling 2 source files to C:\oponsinet\Development\MobileApps\Download\proj.visualstudio-3_13_1\proj.visualstudio\Cocos2d\ARM\Debug\Package\bin\classes
2>EXEC : [javac] error : Source option 5 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.
2>EXEC : [javac] error : Target option 5 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.

2>C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools\ant\build.xml:730: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
To prevent this error, I found this solution : add these 2 lines in build.xml :
But, problem, when I add these 2 lines, I no longer have this error, but I have some new errors :
2> [dx] -Djava.ext.dirs=C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\build-tools\23.0.3\lib is not supported. Use -classpath instead.
2>EXEC : [dx] error : Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.

So I don’t know if somebody has seen this error, but when I tried different solutions found on different forums, there is no solution wheich works !
Could somebody help me ? 
Many thanks 
The 2 lines I added to prevent the first error did not appear in my last Post, I put them again, here :
I hope this will permit to understand my problem ! 
Last try :
L1:
L2:
Sorry 
Try putting them in enclosed string or tags
Hi, does it support for visual studio for mac?
