8-Bit Hordes GOG - A not working solution

[sonrisus99HETO]

For your information. After update the version to 0.93.827848 (69139) i found it the game not works. No windows errors. The execution logs were not understandable. I found some solutions in the steam forum to try, and the one that worked for me, ha been reinstalling the VisualC++ Redistributable version opening a windows console with administrator rights and the command:

Code: Select all

vcredist_x64.exe /msioptions "REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=e"

Another one was executing the game with administrator rights, but i haven't test it. My system is Windows 10 64 bits.I hope it can help to anymore.

You can download from Microsoft, the VisualC++ Redistributable Version: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/w ... w=msvc-170

In another way, the version in the forum is 0.93.746274 (41759): viewtopic.php?f=13&t=958
The last update is: 0.93.827848 (69139) for the three games: 8-bit hordes, 8-bit invaders and 8-bit armies. Not 1.0 version before the upcoming next 8-bit armies 2 (i don't read any about the other two games).

All files signed by Microsoft and a .bat installer to don''t forget anything. Thanks Nighted. This remembers the K-Lite Codec Pack we use before VLC appears in our lives.

thank you, this is super useful. Beside this visual C++ package, do we need any other packages to avoid problems related to these libraries?
