Unpack error

**Fenix_120** · September 10, 2007, 05:08 PM

When ever I try to unpack medieval 2 or its expanion packs it says "MSVCP71.dll was not found, re-installing may fix this problem"

I re-installed and I still get this error...

You need the C runtime libraries, iirc (google the dll file for help)

I have goggled like crazy for a couple of days and I find nothing that helps.
Just a lot of hits with other programs having trouble with dll.
please post a link cause im getting nowhere.
I have reinstalled m2tw and kingdoms som many times now but stopped cause i was only getting mader and mader at the game(have to call it a game cause you could if you wanted play the vanilla kingdoms campaign)

Okay, sorry.

Have you tried doing a system repair using a windows disk? The dll files are on there as standard and you should be able to do a repair of them.

np im just getting tired thats all

yeah ok ill try that. I think if that doesn't help i do a windows reinstall. (thanks for your help)

OK, maybe i'm dumb but i havent heard 1:that you should copy the dll files in main directory into the the tools\unpacker folder.
2:Or copy the unpacker files into the main directory
I only tried nr 1 it worked

Ohh and all the dll files needed is in the M2tw main directory
