gpete Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Leadwerks will not start thru Steam. Verified the install thru Steam says its ok......Pops up and says Preparing to Launch and never opens... Since it starts with a a steam "rungame #########" I have no idea where the files are. Even though I bought it on Steam can I get a proper download from the LEADWERKS site - one that will install in Program Files for Win 64???? It creeps me out that it loads with an online "rungame" thing from steam. It worked ok about a month or so ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I think this is probably a problem with Steam. Unless you are on the beta branch, the build a month ago was the same build.

gpete Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 (edited) I looked at previous posts and checked the vc-redist...... I did not have the vc 2015-64 redist from the steamapps. I did however have the vc 2017, 2013,2012,and other previous. when I tried to install the vc 2015 it failed saying a newer version was installed (ie 2017). I removed VC2017 and then installed VC2015. Leadwerks Pro still will not run- Is there some other way to directly load Leadwerks without going thru STEAM???????? Edited June 20, 2017 by gpete openal32 is missing when loading from local programx86. Where do I get that dll??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reepblue Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Steam should install whatever required packages are needed to run. What version of Windows are you running on? You should be able to have multiple redists installed at the same time. Other than that, not sure why you're running into this issue.

gpete Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 fixed it ---- used the ALinst program in SteamApps/leadwerks......its working now ....funny that it pointed the error at a more recent VC-redist than 2015..through Steam launch got NO ERROR message- only when loaded directly within local file did I get a error message. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
