Unable to launch LE3 Editor, game works

Hi guys,

 

I'm unable to launch both the Evaluation Kit Editor and the paid Editor of Leadwerks 3. The Darkness Awaits game works fine when launched directly as EXE.

 

This error pops up:

"This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way." (Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library)

 

The Leadwerks2 SDK Editor works fine.

 

What I've tried already:

  • Install VC++ 2010 redist (both x86 and x64)
  • Update OpenAL
  • Reinstalling it to the default location (C:\ drive instead of a different one)

Using Windows 7 SP1 x64. AMD processor and AMD Radeon HD 6950 graphics card (Catalyst 12.10)

 

What could cause this error?

 

Thanks in advance.

Used dependancy walker on Leadwerks.exe and it missed some DLLs which I now copied from other folders into the Leadwerks folder.

 

However, 2 DLLs seem to be different from the architecture that's being used. I either need the x64 editions of gpsvc.dll and sysntfy.dll, or the x86 one. I think I've tried the x86 ones myself, but unsure.

 

Any help on this?

Managed to find the proper DLL files. Issue still unresolved though.

 

Dependancy Walker says this:

"Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module."

 

Edit: LE3 Editor works fine on my laptop (with a similar Windows installation). But yeah, still want to get it working on my desktop.

The Leadwerks2 SDK Editor works fine.

Leadwerks 2 Editor was written with MinGW32 -> BlitzMax, so there is no VS involved, and thus no VS DLLs needed.

I have an idea which you could try: maybe the runtime DLLs are not enough, but it needs some additional VS/SDK DLLs, and if you have VS2010 on your laptop, but not on your desktop, this might explain it. So try to install VS2010 C++ Express on your desktop and see if that helps.

If that doesn't help, try to install the Windows SDK, since most VS projects need that too:

Could you please run Event viewer ? start button, run eventvwr, expand Custom Views, events and check last event after your error. You should get better description what happend.

 

Canardian: Windows SDK are included in Windows. Visual C++ redistributable works only for Release version of applications. For Debug, you need to install Visual studio tools. For x86 applications, only x86 redistributation pack is needed.

 

Additional info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/k089yyh0.aspx abort function was called, so, some kind of exception occured.

I'll try to reinstall the demo.

Edit: Didn't help either.

 

Josh, could you look at above debugging info? Thanks.

Nope that's all really.

It would all be x86, FYI.

 

We use Windows 7 here and have no problems. Once I added the VC2010 redistrib we haven't seen any issues at all.

My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.

It says that every time any exception is thrown, and where nothing catches it... Knowing what type of exception to catch (and where it is in the code) could be a nightmare to find...

LE Version: 2.50 (Eventually)

pfff, then i don't know, lol. Last stupid question, have you tried it to run it as admin ? smile.png

Even though I'm admin already I tried that. No difference.

Thanks for trying to help me out though. ;)

'we haven't seen any issues at all'? My post is about an issue with it. And it certainly is related to something the Editor uses.

As far as I can see it might be related to loading an Internet Explorer/webbrowser frame. Is it possible to make a build without that feature? (guess it's related to the opening screen, since that looks HTML-ish)
