I have installed these softwares manually but still it didn’t work out
DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer .NET Framework 4.0 Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable (x64)
So how should i fix it?
Well, the lazy answer is that if there’s a custom install mode, you don’t select the VC++ runtime components and just install the game.
Genuine question. Why doesn’t anyone Google their errors anymore? Or if you’re super lazy, copy pasting the screenshot into chatgpt or grok?
I did both but those didn’t help me
Genuine question.
Why anyone even bothers with repacks?
Just to save few gigabytes when downloading, only then to waste a lot of time messing with it or just installing as it takes forever
I trust fitgirl repacks from the official sources.
Direct downloads and other sources need to be vetted.
There is nothing to trust in here.
Repackers don’t crack games. It’s someone else, usually scene. Once the cracked game is available widely, repackers just do whatever they do, which is very questionable as there is constant flow od reports with problems.
So the original question stands. What’s the point of using repacks? To save 10GB on download, then to deal with unpacking for ours? How many countries still have a download limited Internet connections?
Yeah, but as far as I can tell there’s hasn’t been malware in fitgirl repacks. So, I suppose I am outsourcing my vetting to them.
It’s really a question of how much effort I want to put in finding a different source that’s not dangerous. The extra time it takes to unpack them is okay then.
GOG games is fine as well, but they don’t have everything and direct downloads aren’t always stable for me.
Disable downloading DirectX and any other redisfributable
You are on Win11, you already have them
You’re right… there was an option to untick downloading directx, .net
I was just being too lazy to scroll. Thanks for the help
You could try installing and running the offline installer for DirectX.
But I recommend trying to run the game without installing these runtimes first. You likely have them installed already. If the game doesn’t run then use the offline installer.
Nah man, the problem was that the download directx, .net framework were ticked in the installation by default. I just had to scroll a little
Thanks for replying tho
I know everyone loves Fitgirl, and her re-packs are a tiny bit smaller than DODI, but I always have issues with hers for some reason. DODI, never an issue. I am on linux, so there is that.
For Linux, this is kind of a stupid workaround but I’ve had success, add the installer as a non-steam game and run it through proton by switching to it in the “game’s” compatibility. Running it through wine has been hit or miss for me, it’ll crash or freeze up, but proton has worked pretty well so far.
Then after unpacking, install the game’s .exe as a non-steam game and run that through proton, deleting the first installer from your library
I never actually tried that
It’s either of ankurgames, fitgirl repacks or apunkagames for me
Yeah, give DODI repacks a try and see if they work for you.
The server hosting the malware its trying to install is down
Lol triggered game pirates
It’s the one thing I refuse to pirate unless it’s unavailable for purchase
