Your comments

Once again, I comment today.

For personal reasons, I installed Visual Studio 2017 on my computer. Among other things, it installed C++ Runtime for 2013; and replaced version 2015 with 2017.


Now my setup looks like this - when it comes to Visual C++


Out of curiosity, I tried again to run WFTO, and it now works! I cannot say whether other things that were installed contributed to resolve the problem, but I would expect that changing C++ would be sufficient.


This is something you should really investigate, in my opinion. In the past I had other situations, in which things started working only after installing VS (for example, the Crypto module for Python, which is also depending on C++).

Hi Nano,

I did reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2012 (both 32 and 64 bits)downloading the files from here:


http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/6/B/16B06F60-3B20-4FF2-B699-5E9B7962F9AE/VSU3/vcredist_x86.exe

Unfortunately, it didn't help. Interestingly, the load bar stops always at the same point (about 80 - 85%).

I am pretty sure that other people may experience this problem, because I have a pretty clean installation of Windows 10.


I attach the log, taken from \Steam\steamapps\common\War For The Overworld\WFTOGame_Data\

I will be happy if you have any idea of if you'll find a solution for this.


Best Regards,

Thanks again. 

When I first answered, I mistakenly wrote that I had only 2010 and 2015 runtimes installed, but I didn't see properly yesterday evening. I checked again and I do have 2010, 2012 and 2015 installed (like in above picture).


I will try to reinstall 2012 Runtime and let you know if that fixes the problem. :)

Hello, Thanks for your quick answer!

I apologize for not giving sooner more insight, but yesterday evening I verified that I do have this DLL in the folder written in log (E:/Games/Steam/steamapps/common/War For The Overworld/WFTOGame_Data/Plugins/GalaxyCSharpGlue.dll); so I think the missing dll is another one, referenced by this assembly.


After some Googling, I found a person who described the same problem, here: https://www.gog.com/forum/offworld_trading_company/game_doesnt_load_the_main_menu


This person claims that he resolved by reinstalling MS Visual C++ 2012 runtime. On my computer I have an almost clean installation of Windows 10 Professional, and I do have MS Visual C++ 2010, 2012 and 2015 runtimes.


Is it possible that I also need to do something about MS Visual C++ 2012 runtime?

As a side note, my Plugins folder looks fine: I have all dlls.


EDIT:

I add a screenshot of my Programs, installed C++ Runtime
