Unable to convert T4 text on assembly server

We have a build server without installing Visual Studio 2013, but we installed the MSBuild and VS SDK tools, which include all the necessary T4 conversion files (DLLs and targets). But still, when I try to create a project containing transformations on the build server, I get the following error:

"... TextTemplating \ v12.0 \ Microsoft.TextTemplating.targets (396.5): error: there was a problem getting the AppDomain to start the conversion from the host. The process cannot continue. Line = - 1, Column = -1"

Everything works perfectly. I copied everything that, in my opinion, MSBuild should run the assembly. The last solution is to install Visual Studio on the build server, but I do not want to do this, I would like to keep the highlight of the installation.

After frequent sweats and curses, I finished installing VS 2013 on the build server, and this solved the problem. Not the way I wanted, but at least and finally it works.
