Make sure you have the 64 bits version installed too. This error happens when an 64 bits application tries to open a 32 bits dll. In Dependency Walker, look for 32 bits dlls:
It's quite likely that you will see some warnings about some missing DLLs. Some of these can be ignored, and the FAQ for Dependency Walker will discuss some of these. In the top left, there will be a tree view with the dependency hierarchy. In the middle section below that, there will be a list of the dependency modules identified. Right click on one of the file names in that list, and ensure that "Full Paths" is selected. In one of the columns to the right, labeled "CPU", you should see the architecture that matches your main executable. In my customer's case, we saw "x64" for almost all of the modules, but "x86" in red on the row for the mfc140ud.dll that was wrong.
i installed the 64 bit versions, but some 32 bit games already installed the 32 bit versions aswell.
but even when i only install the 64bit versions, it still doesnt work.

every single one of those dlls is on x86. now what do i do to fix that?
(i just checked and the same dlls are detected on starbound - cant check on armaIII as i already deinstalled some months ago.)
all i can imagine is deinstalling all vcredist packages and installing them again - not that i had enough hazzle installing them in the first place.
edit: uninstalled all vcredist i could find and installed all versions i could find at microsofts page.
still doesnt work
