Thanks for the explanation Jani, so I'll switch everything to MSVC2013
directly and hope for the best :)

Cheers,

Idea is to offer all 4 versions for latest msvc compiler (32 bit & 42 bit OpenGL & Angle) + couple for older ones as well. Based on requests & discussions current ones (MSVC 2010 32 bit OpenGL & MSVC2012 32 bit OpenGL) are most needed/requested ones and that's why those were selected. It hasn't anything to do with which one is saver bet than another one.
