Steam cannot load due to missing dlls, EGS fires up just fine.

My EGS install does not have those files in the Binaries/Win64 location, but executes and plays just fine. However, Steam requires those files to be in the location. As a bandaid, I am manually adding those to the Binaries/Win64 location, but in the future, how would I ensure those two files are present?

Did you alpakit for development or release?

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

Release

Rex•3mo ago

Can you find those two DLLs in an EGS copy of the game?

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

In the same location as I do for my Steam copy, matter of fact, I was surprised to see a Source folder in my mod. I'm surprised EGS even worked, because even Dev Editor will not work without those two files in the Binaries folder

Rex•3mo ago

Oh, wait, are they custom libraries used by your mod?

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

For uWebSockets, yes

Rex•3mo ago

Hmmm, let me see

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

Missing this style of line in my build.cs for some reason... XD CopyToBinaries(ModuleDirectory + "/lib/YourLib.dll", Target);

Rex•3mo ago

Odd, where should this be?

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

dll, Binaries/Win64 I think I forgot to check linux dedi, but one problem at a time.

Rex•3mo ago

I mean the CopyToBinaries call

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

In the build.cs, sorry, trying to put out the fire I started...

    private void CopyToBinaries(string Filepath, ReadOnlyTargetRules Target)
    {
        string binariesDir = Path.Combine(ModPath, "Binaries", Target.Platform.ToString());
        string filename = Path.GetFileName(Filepath);

        if (!Directory.Exists(binariesDir))
            Directory.CreateDirectory(binariesDir);

        if (!File.Exists(Path.Combine(binariesDir, filename)))
            File.Copy(Filepath, Path.Combine(binariesDir, filename), true);
    }

    private void CopyToBinaries(string Filepath, ReadOnlyTargetRules Target)
    {
        string binariesDir = Path.Combine(ModPath, "Binaries", Target.Platform.ToString());
        string filename = Path.GetFileName(Filepath);

        if (!Directory.Exists(binariesDir))
            Directory.CreateDirectory(binariesDir);

        if (!File.Exists(Path.Combine(binariesDir, filename)))
            File.Copy(Filepath, Path.Combine(binariesDir, filename), true);
    }

Yeah, seems to be another piece to this puzzle. Both of them are Steam users. I'll have them try this: https://www.epicgames.com/help/en-US/c-Category_EpicGamesStore/c-EpicGamesStore_LauncherSupport/how-do-i-fix-the-vcruntime140-dll-is-missing-or-vcomp110-dll-was-not-found-error-a000084623#:~:text=If%20you%20received%20this%20error,try%20launching%20your%20game%20again.

Robb•3mo ago

did that work out in the end?

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

Turns out I was using the debug libraries and not the release ones. I may need assistance later, as I'm going to Hell (Ohio) for the weekend, resolving linker errors by not using the DLLs. It's a pain to manually add them, but it's low on the list as I have a workaround for now.

Rex•3mo ago

What is the workaround? Copy the DLLs manually?

DarthPorisiusOP•3mo ago

Yeah, but it only is needed for Winblows. I'm getting back on the road now, just got into Virginia.
