I actually based myself off of that code sample to create the one I shared.
Also, I used to use the prebuilt 3.1.1 version, but it has one bug that isn’t particularly awesome : The 32-bit version of the library references assimp.exe instead of assimp.dll, so you can’t really use it for 32-bit.
Also, this isn’t really much longer to do than using the prebuilt, when you know how to do it.
