Why am i getting DECKDLL.DLL not found

[ralphgoblue]

When i try to get the latest version i'm getting the same 'error' When i try to open the magic exe
This application has failed to start because DECKDLL.DLL was not found.Re-Installing may fix application.
I've tried re-installing (a few times)Does anyone know how to get around this.

Check if you have deckdll.dll anywhere. If you can find it somewhere, it's probably not where the program expects it. It should be in the directory named PROGRAM. (that's where it is for me and it works) Move it there if you have the file and then try it.

If you don't have it in any directory, let us know. It either means that you found an incomplete copy of the game, and need to 'acquire' it elsewhere, or you did something wrong in the install.

Just in case you'd want to reinstall up to the latest version (Slaughter Daughter), the wiki will help you :

Any idea what the problem actually was? (In case someone else has it and needs help) Or did it 'just start working' and you don't know why?

I think i didnt copy all the files into the version i was using.Everything is fine now.If anyone gets the DECKDLL.DLL or any of the other (?)DLL.DLL errors,i would just go into your old version,create to the desktop and just throw them right into the newest update,worked fine for me.
