Setkeys.exe refuses to work - error message

Abd_von_Mumit · 01-18-08, 05:58 PM

I've downloaded SetKeys 1.3 for SH3 (I've been redirected to from SubSim), read the readme and tried to run the exe file. But it only causes an error saying something like: "Application wasn't initiated properly (0xc0000135). Click Ok bla bla".

Any tips?
My PC: Windows XP Prof. SP2, Polish.

I never had a bit of a problem with this program. I suggest you delete the folder from your computer, re-download SH3 setkeys and try again. The program should be installed in your "My Documents" folder not the Ubisoft/SH3 folder.

The readme said it could be stored and launched anywhere, as after start it asks for the game folder path. I'll try to redownload it, thanks for advice.

I found a solution, or rather the cause of why SetKeys refused to launch: you need DotNet Framework on your PC in order to run SetKeys. You can download today-latest version from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...d-aab15c5e04f5
(it's recommended to always check for newer version, however)

Thanks to GlobalExplorer who incidentally and unknowinlgy helped me to solve the problem.

Great.
I really like the program as it can assign several commands to the same key stroke.

I would suggest to install it the program right in the SilentHunter directory. One for each SHIII installation.

As stated in post #4 the problem had been solved - solution there.
