_chain 176 Posted August 31, 2020 So I tried to bring a friend into this game, and his game doesn't run. He downloaded it from steam, it didn't run, so he reinstalled it a couple times, and still nothing. The thing is, the launcher doesn't open up for him. Any ideas? it's probably just the game trying to prevent an innocent soul from entering the toothed gaping hole Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would almost assume The VC2012 Redis (from the TPI folder), but I can't be sure Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sakebee 2270 Posted August 31, 2020 Did you try having your friend download the launcher directly from our website when Steam didn't work for them? If not, I would suggest giving that a try. If that still doesn't help, contact support with your details and they will do what they can to troubleshoot your issue.

nikitos5 51 Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) I had the same problem just yesterday! You need microsoft visual C++ something... Download and install this: https://download.microsoft.com/download/E/C/C/ECCD0A46-78BF-4580-804C-CE0B61CF921E/VSU4/vcredist_x64.exe and this: https://download.microsoft.com/download/E/C/C/ECCD0A46-78BF-4580-804C-CE0B61CF921E/VSU4/vcredist_x86.exe if you already have it, then click 'Repair' in the installer Edited September 1, 2020 by nikitos5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually he had to download the individual missing .dll because the program wouldn't work. Now it says he's missing DXTCompressor.dl, binkw32.dll and PhysXExtensions.dll, even though they're in the folder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
