[dteviot] Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I just had another thought.Could someone do a couple of controlled experiments, running Xenocide when one of the requirements isn't present, and collect the error messages? Then we might be able to tell people what they've forgotten from their error.Obvious tests to run: .Net framework 2.0 missing. XNA missing. (but .Net 2.0 present) DirectX 9.0c missing. (XNA and .Net present.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkhomb Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 I might be formating my computer soon, depending on couple factors. If so I will do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkwars Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 i belive this same error might have been brought up but i'm quite sure i got all the needed stuff installedtheres the error msg and the folder can be seen too, might have messed up in there, also if theres any way i can check if i have the needed stuff installed that would be coolthx for any help, from what i've been able to see the game looks amazing so far good work OK, just for our records.1. How could we make the dependencies more obvious? They are on the same web page as the download.2. Did you manage to get it running in the end?3. Did you figure out what was missing? My guess is wrong version of DirectX 9.0c, but it would be good to confirm, so that next time someone reports that exact error message, we can tell them exactly what's missing. Thanks. 1. haveing them there is nice but sum do not know if they have em, guess u could just google em and try installing em all agin(like i did) but links are extra nice, saves any confusion about haveing the right one or not 2. yes gots it working 3. i belive in the end it was the directX but i did go through try the others befor so it could have been more then just directX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
