    I would very much appreciate if someone could briefly describe or point me to a resource on how to setup Visual studio to run as my default scripting program, how to add the required libraries and dll's so I can use it instead of mono develop.

    Mono Develop currently lacks a lot of features that make coding easier, less time consuming and easier to read that more of the advanced IDE's. I am used to visual studio for the most part so any help would be appreciated.

    It's very easy to install and find. Only need place visual studio for unity3D.

    Well to make more easy here you a link, depends of the version you have or want install. VSU for 2015, 2013, 2012, 2010

    https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/8d26236e-4a64-4d64-8486-7df95156aba9

    Here are the docs explaining all the funcionality of VSU.

    Well The VSU is a unitypackage that need import into your project, when was imported need generate the VS project files. And you can start using VS for unity.

    Any doubt, ask.

    Cool got it working exactly how I wanted. I had to upgrade to VS Community as I was using VS Express and apply the tools package. Yay I'm happy now ;)
