[OLD] Old OXCE+ discussion thread

[Bloax]

Because Microsoft is a bag of dicks and introduced a neat feature into MSVC2015/2016 that makes the compiled executables unrunnable in WinXP.

There's a fix for it, but I can't find it at the moment.

[Solarius Scorch]

Can't run the new version - no MSCCP140.dll found. It's an old Win7 64-bit system, impossible that something like .NET is missing.

[Bloax]

There's no mention of MSCCP140.dll in the many dependencies of OpenXcomExPlus29.exe in Dependency Walker, but there are of MSVCP140.dll.

Which is part of the 2015 Visual C++ Redistributable.

Yep, you are correct. It was my typo.

Here is the link to get the missing .dlls.  I had to use the x86 version to get it working.

Thanks, I'll try it when I'm back home.

That's odd, my compiler never seemed to be more picky except with oxce+.. Anyhow.

I tried to define a variable, and failed pathetically.. it wouldn't store the value in anything but a "const OpenXcom::LocalizedText", which the addRow function wouldn't accept any ways... I expect addRow wants a normal string, but I couldn't use a std::string to store the output.

I ended up commenting out the line and writing:

Code: [Select]

                https://_lstRequiredItems->addRow(1, tr("STR_UNITS_PRODUCED"));
                _lstRequiredItems->addRow(1,"Units Produced");

which went through compilation. It's still compiling (takes forever...), hopefully it works. If you could address that in a better way, I'd be happy to get a proper fix

Try this and let me know if it helped please.

Code: [Select]

std::wstring temp = tr("STR_UNITS_PRODUCED");
_lstRequiredItems->addRow(1, temp);


[Yankes]

Probably only right solution is (copy paste from another file):

Code: [Select]

_lstFacilities->addRow(1, tr((*i)->getType()).c_str());This is because `addRow` have C variadic arguments: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variadic_function

Only `wchar_t*` can be pass because `addRow` reads only this type:

Code: [Select]

txt->setText(va_arg(args, wchar_t*));

Sadly, it didn't help. (I had it installed already.)

I guess I'll just wait for another compilation. If only my current version didn't crash when 10+ enemies are visible.

Meridian, I think that could be helpful for you: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj851139.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

OK, I tried that... let's see if it helps.

New version is up (2.9-based only).

v2016-03-14
  + Compiled using XP-compatibility settings? -- thanks Yankes
  + Fixed linux compilation issue reported by Arthanor (hopefully) -- thanks Yankes
  + Changed unit facing indicator hotkey (ALT instead of SHIFT)
  + Added custom physical training factor (percentage between 0 and 100)
    - default 100 % (customTrainingFactor: 100)

Sorry, but I still have the error I mentioned before. Installing the MS distributable doesn't help.

What operating system do you have?
Are you using all files from the package? (a couple versions ago one DLL has changed too, not only EXE)
Did you install 32-bit version of C++ redistributable as Ivan suggested?

[Solarius Scorch]

What operating system do you have?

Windows 7, 64 bit.

Are you using all files from the package? (a couple versions ago one DLL has changed too, not only EXE)

Yes, everything.

Did you install 32-bit version of C++ redistributable as Ivan suggested?

He did? He mentioned that he had to get the x86 version, but I figured he simply had a 32-bit system...

Anyway, tried this now, it works. Thanks, guys!

Happy to hear that.
And please... be extra careful with custom training factor... less than 50-60% is as good as nothing.
