VC redist dependency #32

Closed Rozzemak closed 9 months ago

Rozzemak commented 9 months ago

This tool requires some VC redist, otherwise it does not inject into wow.exe and outputs some error regarding DllMain. I don't know exactly which version it needs but installing all of them from this site helped: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/

Would be cool if correct dependency was listed in the installation process.

Both VanillaFixes.exe and VfPatcher.dll are statically linked to the Visual C++ runtime. They only depend on DLLs that are included with Windows. The dependency has to be coming from somewhere else (do you use nampower?).

Oh, the nampower dll was present in the directory. Thanks for the clarification about the dependencies.
