AyaBambi Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) Hello! I'm trying to launch this game on clear Win7 and it shows to me some .dll error. Can you tell me, do this game needs now some additional libraries such as MS VC++ packages? Because, as I remember, alpha 24 was launch without any additional 3-rd party installations. If game need them now, can you please include all right redistributable (standalone versions) packages into installer?

AyaBambi Posted August 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) Clear Win7x64, SP1 with just downloaded 0 A.D. here: Sounds like: "Launch of program is imposible, because there is no api-ms-win-crt-string-l1-1-0.dll on the computer. Try to reinstall program." Admin launch also brings this error. Neither game, nor Atlas working. Reveal hidden contents I hope the game will be fixed and autonomous from any redist. packages or it will be very-very sad news... P.S: I know Win7 already end-of-support, but maybe you also should test your game at Win7x32 without any SP.

Silier Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 Hi, you say you have clear win 7. Did you have a24 on exactly this one windows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyaBambi Posted August 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) No any previous alphas, no any DX, VC++ or dotNet. And it's clear system from MS official site. I would write here because of daily limits... UPD: 0ad-0.0.24b-alpha-win32 have the same problem.

The map editor depended on it in A24 too. https://trac.wildfiregames.com/browser/ps/trunk/binaries/system?rev=24937&order=date The game doesn't use DX or dotNet.

FixYourForum Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Oh, my gosh... Fix your forum already. It's works like lottery. Back to the our installers: Alpha 24b is not working and pop-ups the same error. Even if I use admin rights to launch installer. I'm noticed that only alpha 23b works at clear Windows 7. I think, you really should make "virtual-boxed" sandbox with Win7 or another clear versions of other systems to test this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I mean, that I can't login sometimes and sometimes I must log-out and log-in to make "send" button works. The verification message is also sometimes bugged and button can't be "pressed". BTW, did anything heard about redistributable packages dependencies in 0 A.D. installer? Because, I'm sure by 99% it is VC++ error.

AyaBambi Posted August 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Yes, it is works with update but if your PC is kinda "computer for villge" where no internet, after reinstall OS you will not be able to play if you don't have VC++ on flash stick.
