My mfc140u.dll appears to be MIA

G'day All

 

I originally purchased BoS early access not to long after it being announced, fully knowing that my PC build at the time would be less than adequate to the task, but now that I have PC setup with enough grunt to really do it any justice, so until now I have only been a fringe dweller and have missed a lot of what go on in the mean time, and I'm having to play a lot of catch up.

 

So I was looking through the skinning threads, when I was amazed to learn that there is a model viewer built-in, this revelation would mean no more having to load up the sim just to the check my skin tweaks, well that at least that was what I thought until I tried to launch the viewer and my smile turned upside down when I got a message stating "The code execution cannot proceed because mfc140u.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."

 

I was not to put out at first, as this had happened the first time I tried to load up my long dormant sim after all the excruciatingly slow updates, a quick search of the forum on this occasion alerted me to the fact that some cases after patching some dll files had and extra extension that was removed would resolve that problem, which it did.

 

Sadly the dll in question this time is nowhere to be found, anywhere within the \1C Game Studios\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad directory, so the same fix cannot be applied in this instance.

 

There is only one reference to mfc140u.dll on the forum and in that thread it basically stated that the rerunning of the launcher fixed the problem and not too much else.

 

So here I am to ask if anybody else has had this issue, or if someone could send me a copy of the missing dll to see if that alone will resolve the my issue?

 

Cheers Spud

Thanks  guys, I did not think to look for the missing dll outside of the Sim's directory, I found one in the widows directory and promptly copied that into the directory of the viewer and now all is good,

Good to hear it worked for you. Enjoy ?
