    After downloading the binary for Windows, I tried running (Windows 7 64bit) and the hourglass spins for a couple of seconds then nothing! no error no TED. So I downloaded the source and built using the indicated commands produced the binary without error but again the program fails to run, any ideas?

    Do you have spaces in your monkey2 directory path?

    are you noticed of any errors (like “vcruntime140.dll is missing” for example?) or is it just not doing anything?

    No errors, just a brief delay as indicated by the swirling pointer, and then nothing? No task appears in the task manager.

    I used this version of MinGW:

     

    And extracted it here:

    Also just for safety I created a user environment variable called PATH and added this line:

    I don’t know if the PATH variable is needed for using Ted, but I remember when doing command line compilations it was needed.

    @cocon thanks for that info just tried it same problem? same filesize as before

    the Ubuntu 64 version also required some additional setup:

    apt-get update
    apt-get install libudev-dev
    apt-get install libsdl2-dev

    ./rebuildall.sh

    Working for me on W7 x64, m2 folder in my home dir. Always better to be in that authorised part (desktop is in that part too) to avoid UAC and other security blockers.

    Had to copy vcruntime140.dll in a PATH because I don’t have VC runtime installed but the dll should not be necessary so this should change.

    Try to make a command line compilation and see if you can spot any errors related to the system or g++ compiler. I had tried this also myself:

    P.S. The mx2cc is a user environment variable.
    D:\Programs\monkey2\bin\mx2cc_windows.exe

    No errors reported calling c:\monkey2\scripts\rebuildall

    rebuildmods 100%
    rebuildted2   100% all files copied

    User environment variables set:
    c:\monkey2\devtools\mingw\bin\g++.exe; c:\monkey2\bin\mx2cc_windows.exe

    copied vcruntime140.dll to c:\monkey2\

    copied the contents of i686-5.3.0-posix-dwarf-rt_v4-rev0 to c:\monkey2\devtools\

    thanks for all thge suggestions nothing seems to be failing in the build?

    I had issues with windows monkey2 binaries on my win7 laptop.

    I am testing again now…

    The first issue detected is the folder created by 7zip is readonly!

    The permission bits on the mx2cc.exe also look like an issue.

    back soon…
