Error about xjoy HOT 22 CLOSED

While testing I also made sure that the joycons were both "connected"

What version of windows do you have? If you install the latest version of visual studio, your issue may go away, though this problem shouldn't happen to anyone anymore as the latest release is supposed to remove any debug dependencies.

from xjoy.

I also assume you followed the installation instructions in the README?

from xjoy.

@DylanHanna any updates on this? Did you try any of the above?

from xjoy.

Same problem here, I followed every step, what should I do?

from xjoy.

@Yggromath I will look into this this weekend

from xjoy.

thanks dude

from xjoy.

@Yggromath so to confirm, you 1) installed the ViGEm Bus Driver, 2) installed Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017 and 3) you have Windows 10?

from xjoy.

Yep

Hello, I got a similar issue with the message "ucrtbased.dll" and then "vcruntime140d.dll" not found.
Maybe your binary is looking for debug dlls, whereas VisualC++redist only give us the non-debug version ?
Also these 2 dlls seems to be linked to 2015 redist, whereas 2017 redist is asked in the readme.

from xjoy.

I got it working by adding "ucrtbased.dll" and "vcruntime140d.dll" in the XJoy folder

from xjoy.

@Yggromath could you try also installing the 2015 redist, and we'll see if that fixes your issue? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145

I'm also getting this issue, seems like it's trying to use the debug dll's for ucrtbase and vcruntime140 instead of the release ones.

from xjoy.

Does anyone know what might cause this? I'm building everything in release mode

from xjoy.

One of the dependencies might be trying to use debug dlls.

from xjoy.

same problem here, meh

from xjoy.

is there any solution?

from xjoy.

Until someone or me can figure out why a dependency is using debug dlls even when I specify release for everything, the solution is to have visual studio 2017 installed on your machine (it's free)

from xjoy.

from xjoy.

As a workaround for these issues on v0.1.5, grab v0.1.4 and copy urctbased.dll and vcruntime140d.dll into the same folder as XJoy.exe.

@DylanHanna can you rename this GitHub issue to "Application attempts to use missing/debug dlls" or something?

from xjoy.

I'll just cut another release with those dlls in place again if that is working for people. It's not the proper way to fix this but its much easier than chasing this down.

from xjoy.

OK I have re-uploaded the zip for 0.1.5 with the old dlls that were included with 0.1.4, so people should no longer experience this issue. If anyone wants to fix this properly I'd really appreciate it as I do not have any time to devote to this right now.
