Thanks for reporting! I haven't used the NaCl path in ages unfortunately :/ , I have been mostly focusing on working with Emscripten. This sounds like tool paths have changed around in the NaCl SDK since I wrote the plugin support for it. You could try checking if editing this works:

Alternatively, or perhaps preferably, you might want to use the official NaCl Visual Studio add-in that the NaCl team develops (this didn't exist when I first hacked on the support in vs-tool), see here: https://developers.google.com/native-client/devguide/devcycle/vs-addin
