I'm getting 2 error messages which I've never seen before, 42.04-r01 worked fine for me.
The error messages complain about missing "urctbase.terminate" in "api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll"
and the pack gives me an error saying Error loading Python DLL:
C:\...\AppData\Local\Temp\_MEI6362\python35.dll (error code 127)

So I guess a temporary python dll is not made properly?

Edit: Win7 64 bit

I get the same two errors when i try to start the "Starter Pack Launcher (PyLNP).exe"-file

Thanks again for all the hard work and dedication too releasing these Starter Packs,  PeridexisErrant! Really appreciate it! Also hope you had a good vacation!

I get the same errors like GaenaralHONK and BesorgterZwerg... This is with a completely fresh install (no copying into thr r01 directory) on Windows 7/64bit. If you need any more information, just say so. I hope, you can fix this soon, since the pack is really awesome.

I had the same error. I installed the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 and was able to launch successfully after that. Link

OK, it looks like building PyLNP on Windows 8 (with a more recent version of Python than used by Pidgeot, the usual maintainer) causes problems on Windows 7.

You can fix it by downloading this file from Microsoft, downgrading to an older PyLNP release, or upgrading your OS.  I suggest the first option!

I'm also having trouble with the launcher for 42.04-r2 -- it appears that it no longer supports 32-bit systems? Error message reads:

"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."

Never had any trouble with it before. Is anyone using Windows 7 32-bit but not having this problem? I notice also that the file size of the exe has strangely doubled since 42.03-r3.

I'd expect it to be something related to how your Python installation was built, myself (unless PyInstaller generates native code).

I notice also that the file size of the exe has strangely doubled since 42.03-r3.

Which exe? Does the post above explain things?

*waves hands*  I think both are something to do with the fact that all my systems are set up for (development-level) compatibility with scientific HPC, while Pidgeot is targeting application development.  I'm just going to wait for his build tomorrow; apologies to everyone who this broke for.

As dirtytleilaxu said, installing vc_redist  (the first link in his post) helps for now. I still hope, you can fix the problem that caused this.

Installing the redistributables did not help for me. I am running Windows 10 and get the error:
Fatal Error!
launch returned -1

Returning the launcher back to the previous version still works for me, though.

[PeridexisErrant]

The Starter Pack has updated to 0.42.04-r03!  As usual, you can get it here.

This release brings more bugfixes, especially in PyLNP - anyone experiencing problems should upgrade.  If in a few days everything seems to be working, I'll promote this pack to the stable address!  (and then continue working mostly on the unstable version).  Strike the Earth!

0.42.04-r03
 - updated TwbT
 - added Gemset graphics
 - updated Legends Browser
 - updated PyLNP; additional bugfixes

[Dainz]

Thanks for your continued work on the Starter Pack, everytime a new Version comes out, the dwarf in me gets a happy thought!

[kikoman]

Thanks for the update!

I'm having random CTD with r01 and r02 versions. Strangely it does not happen with my own "tuned" version of 0.42.04 with TwbT and DFHack installed by hand.
Triying now with r03

[miguelsz2]

And so... As if the gods demand it. A new update to DF is released.
