Re: [Audyssey] STFC installation issue.

Did you install them in any particular order? The dot net components 
must be installed first, then the latest directx run time libraries need 
to follow.

 I seem to remember this happening before, but I don't remember the 
 fix.  I've downloaded and installed both the .net and directX 
 downloads from the USAGAMES site.  When I attempt to run STFC I get 
 the following error screen:

 stfc.exe - Common Language Runtime Debugging Services
 Application has generated an exception that could not be 
 handled.graphic 608  Process id=0xb44 (2884), Thread id=0xf5c (3932).
 Click OK to terminate the application.
 Click CANCEL to debug the application.
 OK Cancel

 How do I fix this?

Re: [Audyssey] STFC installation issue.

2007-08-18 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Christopher,
Keep in mind the proper order for installing STFC is this.

1. Install .Net 2.0.
2. Install DirectX 9.0C (June 2007) or later.
3. Install STFC 1.0.

If you didn't install in exactly that order that is most likely the 
cause for your crash.
Finally, I'd like to point out STFC 1.2 is about to come out in a few 
hours. Once I update the web site, finish with the manual, compile the 
installer, etc it will be out the door.
So hold onto your seat for 1.2 to be out in a little while.

Re: [Audyssey] STFC installation issue.

2007-08-18 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Christopher,
Oh, I see your problem now. Understand that file on my web site is a 
self extracting file. What it does, and all it does is extracts the 
setup files to a temp directory. You have to manually go to that folder 
and run setup.exe to actually do the install. Your DirectX is not 
installed as of this point, because all you did was extract it not 
install it.
I think I am going to extract that stupid file, and make a setup for it 
so end users stop making this common mistake. For whatever reason that 
is the way MS made the installer, and I hate it. G Sometimes MS 
really ticks me off.

 or is there a second step to installing the DirectX libraries?

Hi,

PS

I'm working on a new setup for DirectX using the Aug 2007 eddition, and 
hope to have it posted soon. I'll let the list know when the new and 
improved setup is up.
The Aug eddition installer I am going to custom make won't have this 
goofie issue where it extracts the files only, and forces you to find 
the dxsetup.exe file manually to install. It will just do it.
I'm also adding in the multilanguage eddition so all should be cool here 
very soon.

Hi. I'm not sure to be honest. When I ran the directx setup, it 
downloaded and automatically installed the necessary components. I did 
not need to manually extract anything to a temp directory. It just 
worked. Perhaps Tom Ward has a better answer.

Hi Raul and all,
I have the solution for this annoying problem uploading to my web site 
right now. I'll let everyone know as soon as the 100 MB folder of 
updates finishes upgrading the USA Games site. I've got some awesome 
news coming.
