Crash on load (*solved*)
Posted: Mon Sep 03, 2012 10:10 pm
Solved:
I removed all old installations of the Visual C distributable, which didn't help. Then I checked that no copy of the DLL was found on the system, installed the latest version so there was only one instance of the DLL on the machine... Didn't help.
Then I did like some people suggested, and copied the DLL to the game folder, and now the game is running fine.
This seems like a serious code flaw, if the game can't run the DLL from the system32 folder... I'm running as the admin and should have all the permissions, never had a problem with the VisualC libraries before.

Hi, on load, the game exits with an error message back to OS.
AppName: grimrock.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: d0004380
I can still switch to the game, and create a band of rogues, but when I try start the game it exits with an error message. Dump & system info as follows:
The second monitor is turned off in display properties, and powered off. Sound works too fine, altough I hear no music.
