I'm currently working my way through the cheat sheet installation instructions, and have encountered quite a few issues that are not documented, so I thought I'd post the rabbit hole I went down and how I fixed it for anyone else experiencing the same issues.
I was getting this error when trying to launch gmlive-server.exe "The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME.140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem".
There are no topics here about it so I googled "VCRUNTIME140.dll" and found this forum, which recommended downloading and installing this. So both and install both: vc_redist.x64.exe and vc_redist.x86.exe.
This fixes that error, but then brings me to this error: "The appliction was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.
Fortunately there is a topic on that here, in which OP says that this link solved it for him.
The link leads to YellowAfterlife's post saying to read this blog post. The blog post says to install the included file:
But there's no way to download it. However there is a comment which says they couldn't download it either, with a reply with another link. But that link just takes you here. Seemingly an unrelated problem. If you press "Return to extension community", it takes you here. Not related. ok.
The page we actually need is here. You'll notice there's a download button here that you need to press:
This file gets overlooked because the purchase page does not include it:
And the cheat sheet doesn't mention it either.
So all you have to do now is download "Unzip this ... etc" which results a file called "neko.zip"
If you extract the contents, and then move them to the folder that gmlive-server.exe is in (select yes to replace files), it fixes it:
But before I even downloaded it, I noticed there was a folder called GMLive just sitting there. So I opened it and it appears to have an identical set of files inside, one of which is "gmlive-server.exe". And this one works, because it already has the contents of neko.zip.
I am very confused, and I agree with this comment from a year ago.
But I'm just glad to see it's working.
