| Summary | 0004882: Alright so I am unable to run the DwarfFortress.exe program | ||||
| Description | I have gone to the download page and tried every file under windows and every mirror available yet whenever I pop up the file and press the .exe it runs it and says 'This application has failed to start because fmodex.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.' If you have any knowledge that would help me PLEASE PLEASE post it. I would really enjoy to play this game. Thanks -Caleb | ||||

FYI I probably did something wrong about posting this here. But I really want to play this game. So please don't bite my head off. :) |

You need to EXTRACT the zip file before you can run the executable stored inside it. In the future, you should probably ask for help on the forums before reporting a bug in the tracker. |
|
|
Reminder sent to: geoglad Did you extract the zip file and attempt to run the game or did you try to run the .exe from an open zip? |
