D-Stars v1.00 (need Help)

Post by Shadolf »

Hey, I just downloaded D-Stars from here:
http://tuisekimode.blog53.fc2.com/blog-entry-530.html
But I can´t run the game. When I start the exe a black loading window with green letters appers.
It seems to load, but when finished it just freezes.
Can someone please help me with this?
OS is Windows 7 64bit.

Works here. There seems to be an alternative exe available on the developers site that seems from Google translate to be meant to fix an issue like that?

Zell is correct, I had the same problem: go to this page, and underneath the 3 large links to download the game, there's a smaller one, with "MSVCR71.DLL" in the text above it. Download the zip from that link, then put the two "dll" files into the same folder as the .exe for the game, now the latter should work.
