Disable F12 alt run time error.

[rhb84]

Getting an error when trying to boot the game.

I recently changed to a newer laptop and did not have this issue on my old one.
Whenever I start the game, I get the error " Script' Disable F1 Alt+enter F12 Line 19: Runtime error occured" "Load Library System/F1AltEnterF12"

I checked the folder to see if the dll was missing and it was located there so I'm not sure wha could have caused the issue.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the game twice as well. I've attempted removing the "F1AltEnterF12" .dll file. Nothing seemed to work.

Are you starting a new game or loading a save file?

Which version of Windows are you using? It seems Windows 11 isn't a good fit for a lot of older RPG Maker editions. Maybe try to use compatibility mode and set it to Windows 7. It's a standard method, but worth a shot if you haven't tried it yet.

By the way, the script in question is there for a reason. F12 normally lets you reset an RPG Maker VX Ace game, but doing that almost certainly crashes most games because of the infamous "stack level too deep" error (after battles, especially after ones with or following level-ups). Also, F12 is used to make screenshots on Steam, so disabling F12 in RPG Maker VX Ace games on Steam is a really good measure.

I think I'm using windows 11. I'll try the compatibility setting. To answer Hunting Swan. I'm not even able to enter the game period. This error occurs on loading the game before the start screen.

Ok definitely try what Euphoniac suggested and let me know if it works.

I have solved this now. One of my scripts requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributables (x86). Most older computers would have this but new ones may not. I have updated the app to include this in the download. If you uninstall and reinstall it should work now for you.

That's probably the only version that isn't installed on my PC, but 2015-2019 or one of the older versions (2010, 2008 or 2005) must have done the trick, too. This software is indispensable when playing retro games. I guess RPG Maker VX Ace and its scripts are retro now, too. :D

[HuntingSwan]

hahah I don't mind being retro as long as the game runs

Sorry for the late response but yes it works perfectly now thank you.
