Win11 and dll mod question
With the help of patcher_x86.dll, I can use many interesting DLL mods in HoMM3 and HoMM2 games. But I'm running into trouble now. After moving my games and DLL mods to my Windows 11 PC, I found that none of these mods work anymore. Is this an operating system issue? I'm seeking advice from friends in the forum.

AlexSpl said: Some authors prefer to write in newer version of Visual Studio, so you have to install corresponding Visual C++ Redistributables - [url=https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170]https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170[/url].

Windows 10 != VC++ Redistributable 2010, so try to install them first.

"By default, all applications compiled against the Visual C++ 2008 Runtimes (static and dynamic linking) will only work on Windows 2000, Windows XP SP2 and later."
So, by default, you don't need to install VC++ 2008 on modern Windows. But others are not pre-installed.
