Title: Underhall beta testers needed!
Post by: Ex on March 12, 2010, 11:51:22 PM
So, my 7DRL Underhall is done and ready for release, but I can never quite tell what DLLs people will/won't need or whether or not programs that run on my computer will run on others. I know that Underhall doesn't run on Windows XP, it only runs on Windows 7. But I need to know if it runs on Windows 7 machines aside from my own, before I release it. I might be missing DLLs or building it incorrectly, so any help is greatly appreciated!

All you need to do is download the zip file and try to run the executable inside (after extraction, of course). If it works, awesome, report back to me that it does, if not then I need to know so I can fix it. The game is essentially done, so if it does work, feel free to play it exhaustively :) . I just need to know if it runs correctly on other windows 7 machines, and if not, what DLLs it might be complaining about.

Here it is:

I just announced Underhall's release on rgrd, so, hopefully this version runs! I didn't manage to get any beta testers beforehand though, so it may not run. Here is the convenient installer:

Enjoy!

I'm curious, what's stopping this from running on XP?

No clue, it just doesn't. I've tried using different configurations for the compiler, and including different DLLs, and no effect on XP compatibility.

Sorry, I was away most of the dayevening yesterday.

Installer worked correctly but the game will not launch in the slightest on my Win 7 64, and has the same error as well if chosen to run as admin

Application Error

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0150002).  Click OK to close the application.

Thanks, I'll get right on trying to fix this.
