Technical Issue VM_Create on UI failed

[TerraXition]

I keep getting this error when I boot up the mod, a minute after I see the Movie Battles II loading screen it crashes and I get this log.

Unless the skin pack comes with its own DLLs (which it has absolutely no reason to....) it has nothing to do with this.

Someone else just had this exact same problem and it was resolved by installing the x86 2013 VC++ redistributable Defiant linked, so at this point I'm a little doubtful it actually installed properly for you.

Would you like me to show you screenshots of the installation step by step then? I’m sure it’ll help a lot then

That doesn't seem all that productive.

Do you have msvcr120.dll in C:\Windows\System32? Should be able to find it with a quick search.

Yes it’s in there

At this point there isn't really anything I can offer to suggest. Obviously something unique to your system configuration is breaking it, but I cannot think of any way to try and troubleshoot it quickly just by providing instructions.

PM me on Discord later today if you are willing to step through some more direct remote support (I do not normally offer this, but I am genuinely curious what the actual issue is here).

Will be in C:\Windows\SysWoW64 for 64-bit Windows.

Will be in C:\Windows\SysWoW64 for 64-bit Windows.

It was reported to be 32-bit Vista.

 

[Defiant]

In that case, sacrifice a lamb and say Microsoft backwards three times in front of a mirror. I cant tell you how to defeat the demon that appears, but good luck.

Ah, my bad I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium.

I assume Vista also is affected by this: Unconfirmed - 1.6.2 is Broken on Windows XP, no K32GetModuleBaseNameA in Kernel32.dll

Assuming you used the launcher to download the update, reinstall JKA with a clean gamedata folder and download MB2 game files from moddb and install manually.

Movie Battles II V1.6.2 FULL file

This is the full release for V1.6.2. It is suitable for Linux, Windows and MacOS systems, including server hosts.

www.moddb.com

Once the files are downloaded and extracted into the gamedata folder, extract the launcher and run it.

I had a similar issue with a mate of mine, for some reason the launcher download wasn't downloading a .dll

Running installation repair, and local file check on steam said the game was downloading a file every time, but the same problem occurred. I assume, it wasn't downloading the file.

Sounds like some over zealous anti-virus in this case.
