Map Editor doesn't work

Post by Devil12 »

When I want to start the Map Editor comes an errormessage that "MSVCR71.dll" couldn't be found.
Where do I get it, and where do I have to put it?

* That's not as easily answered as you would think.

* That's "C" runtime library and the first thing you have to do is make sure it REALLY isn't on your comp.

* So run a search for it first... and if it's there then you gotta deal with some issues which are explained HERE

* If your search doesNOT turn it up then proceed to download it HERE

* Where to put it amounts to a complicated answer which I refer you to this sound approuch HERE

* Best I can do for ya... Good luck. :)

For what it is worth, once you get the .dlls, just stick them in the same directory as the .exe.

Then read http://members.shaw.ca/kgmetcalfe3/.
And read it again.

Then you can play with it. :)
and it ends here.

Who me?

There is a installer for it already.
Then you get the newer EW32 2.1 from the sticky.

What more do you want?

You don't answer the questions I have asked, so I can't really help.
