Category: Client Group: v0.3.1-RC4 Status: Deleted Resolution: Invalid Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: MSVCR80.dll error Initial Comment: When ever I try to start up Freeorion a little balck dos window pops up and then I get a generic windows error message that says "Freeorion has casued an error in MSVCR80.dll Freeorion will now close". Please assist if you can, since I realy want to play this game. I can provide detailed computer stats if you want. I am running a windows ME (arg!!!) on a pentium 3 with a 64 MB geforce 4 and 256 MB of ram. I had no problems installing the program, but I did do it from an external HD. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Zach Laine (tzlaine) Date: 2006-06-20 12:56 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=729903 FreeOrion requires Windows XP Service Pack 2. Earlier versions of Windows XP will not work, including SP1 and SP2-beta. Obviously, Linux users don't need to worry about this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Zach Laine (tzlaine) Date: 2006-06-20 10:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=729903 FreeOrion requires Windows XP Service Pack 2.

(I haven't gotten it to compile on .NET yet) Anyway, since you are using WinME that means you're probably still using a FAT32 file system. Apparently this causes some weird behaviour with .NET 2.0 (check for user: feuerste within the above link). Hope this helps... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Geoff Topping (geoffthemedio) Date: 2006-06-05 17:07 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=913462 Can you be more explicit? Copy and paste the line where you run "freeorion" and anything after from the DOS window. Is the error message still a popup, or does it appear in the DOS window as well? Have you tried replacing MSVCR80.dll? http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr80 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2006-06-05 15:59 Message: Logged In: NO same error message "Freeorion has casued an error in MSCVR80.ddl" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Geoff Topping (geoffthemedio) Date: 2006-06-05 04:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=913462 I guess WinME doesn't have "cmd" then... Try "command" instead. Or any other way you know to get a dos window opened, if that doesn't work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2006-06-05 04:42 Message: Logged In: NO It says it cannot find "cmd" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Geoff Topping (geoffthemedio) Date: 2006-06-05 04:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=913462 Could you run freeorion from a command line, rather than the shortcut? Go to Start->Run... and run "cmd". Then cd to your FreeOrion installation directory, and run "freeorion". Any error messages generated will then be shown in the text window, rather than disappearing before they can be seen as happens when run from the windows shortcut. Please post any error messages you get. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=544942&aid=1500667&group_id=75752 |
