Each controller is using its own model which is based on the BaseViewModel but as a subclass. Will it work?

This is in the web.config:
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.5.1">
<assemblies>
<add assembly="System.Data.Entity, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=B77A5C561934E089"/>
</assemblies>
</compilation>
<httpRuntime targetFramework="4.5"/>
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
