Missing .dll's - Don't know what to do!

Post by hihou »

Running Windows 10 64 bits, VS 0.5.1.r1 doesn't launch (no error messages).

SVN version 0.5.2.13657 (from the vegastrike.exe properties) gives error [missing MSVCP100.dll] (1x) and [missing MSVCR100.dll] (3 times in a row) and nothing launches.

I tried installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 to fix the missing .dll files (as suggested on most search results) but they are still missing. It doesn't seem to be supported beyond Windows 7, maybe that's why.

I used the 64bit version of TortoiseSVN to get the files. Not sure if relevant?

Could someone help me find a way to fix those error messages and get the game running? I can't find mentions of VS being either compatible or incompatible with Windows 10. Surely I can't be the first to try? I don't know where to look at this point :(

Appreciate the ongoing efforts with the project, keep it up!

Hi hihou I use 32-bit win10 but rarely boot into it and I have not tried running it there but since I updated from win7 I should not have a problem there have been some changes in the Windows API that may be the problem which means that a complete new build for windows built with the latest Visual Studio may be needed,you may get a better answer from the guys on github here https://github.com/vegastrike

Enjoy the Choice :)
