Lambo Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 So i as the title says i cannot get leadwerks to launch, i have previsouly used it on this rig with no issues. I recently updated my harddrive and re-installed and now i cannot get it to launch. I have tried validating the files and manually installing the openAL with no luck. I am not a technical genius i will admit. Upon launching i get the window telling me steam is launching the game then it disappears and after that nothing. I have looked through the forums which is were i got the previous two ideas. I have also updated all my drivers including sound drivers as i have had that cause issue before. I am unsure f what further to try any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 There is a Visual Studio component that also gets installed. It's in the same area you found the OpenAL installer, in the Steam files.

Josh Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 No problem there. It's probably the VC redistributable isn't getting installed automatically.

Josh Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Looks like Valve moved the install location to here: Steam/steamapps/common/Steamworks Shared/_CommonRedist/vcredist/ 1 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.
