Okay. Maybe there is something errenous in the build. I need to check out the settings and rebuild it, see if that helps.

There is lots of info if you look up the german version of this message, unfortunately I am not really literate. One site seemed to suggest that it might be a problem with the Express Edition of VC2005, another that there was a missing DLL...
Anyway, some programmer literate in German should track it down and give us a report!!! |

Hmm. I built it using VC2008. It runs fine on my pc. I'm testing it on a different pc now.

Ah god. I found out why this error occured.
If a manifest is present in your application but a required Visual C++ library is not installed in the WinSxS folder, you may get one of the following error messages depending on the version of Windows on which you try to run your application:
* The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135).
* This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling application may fix this problem.
* The system cannot execute the specified program.
If no manifest is present in your application, the error you get depends on whether the Visual C++ library your application depends on is deployed in the application local folder or in a shared folder such as the System folder or WinSxS folder.
Installing the VC++ 2008 redistributable package should fix this problem.
Download
I quote from microsoft:
| Quote: | | The Visual C++ Redistributable Package (VCRedist_x86.exe, VCRedist_x64.exe, VCRedist_ia64.exe) has to be executed on the target system as a prerequisite to installation of the application. This package installs and registers all Visual C++ libraries. |

LOL.
That darn microsoft!
You should be able to build the project without requiring any .net, manifest, or any of that mess, right? Maybe not. I'm not sure what they sis with VS 2008...  |

Got the package. Uninstalled Egoboo. Installed the package. Reinstalled Egoboo. Ran it. Got the exact same error message as with 2.7.5b.
...the only difference to before is, there is now a log output. It says:
| log wrote: | Starting Egoboo 2.7.7...
INFO: Initializing high-performance counter...
INFO: Frequency is 3579545 hz |
That's all. SIGH.

I read on their page that the Express editions require the redistributable package installed on any pc that you want to run your c++ applications on.
Maybe compiling applications the way you mention only works for non-express editions.

Sounds like it stops before completing the INFO: Initializing clock services...

I have a "full" version of VS 2007. I could do the compiling for you if this is the case.
Is this the same for the installer? |

It is either that or we put the redistrebutable package with every install. I am also currently trying out VC++ 2008 Proffesional Edition, see if that helps with anything.
About the DEV Package: I'll see when. Uncompressed it is over 200 mb. I'm not sure if there are that many things in it, making it worth a release. But it contains a lot of the work of members and more half-finished stuff (Modules, centaur, models, etc.)

...well, it doesn't.
It still doesn't even go to the menu - however, I get a different error message.

Wow, am I behind the curve  ... Here are my results:

 Wow. I don't think it will be implemented for a while, I'd say 3 releases at most...or least, if development is full of bugs like it is now...
EDIT: I just installed it *over* the current Egoboo installation, and it's quite something! I like the new look...sorta. It really makes the game look less in-development! Here's a screenshot for those of you who can't get it to work:

P.S. The life bars are pretty messed up, the Gonne doesn't seem to work, and one of the gun-wielding Lumpkins seems unresponsive to everything including attacks (wtf?).

It's... BLEGH.
In the Paladin Starter you just walk straight through the doors, Torches have blues in their fire, and Grub Bugs go flying when you kill them! And the life bars go the wrong way.
I'm soooo waiting for 2.7.6...
