yep, just got burned! CTD before it even loads...i own metal slug 3 and x; have no problems with either game. anyone out there in metal slug world got any suggestions?

[dahunt4gr8tgames]

what is MSVCP120.dll? This is apparently the file missing from my download causing the game to be unplayable. Why was the file not there upon download? Is it because Im running Windows 8? The other Metal Slug games work perfectly. HELP!

[Goreman]

It seems to be a visual c++ thing...

Go download MSVCP120.dll and copy it into Metal Slug's folder.

Launch the game as normal.

how can I get to the folder of Metal Slug?

[tmstffrd]

It is in steamapps/common/METAL SLUG...

I tried putting MSVCP120.DLL in there, didn't work

[lynmock]

To be precise , it is to install the vcredist_x64.exe or vcredist_x86.exe of Visual Studio 2013 Visual C ++ Redistributable Packages

I found the folder of metal slug and in fact you onto the file msvcp120.dll the game still does not work, I tried to install even vcredist-64 and 86, I tried to operate the application and put the file in the folder, but still not working.
then clicking on the application of metal slug from a folder window signals the absence of computer files msvcp120.dll, located just below the icon of the application instead.

There's an MSVCR120.dll so be careful you didn't mix the two up. It's not a problem to drag both files in though. I originally downloaded VCR by accident before I realised it was VCP that was needed.

This is the file structure of my game folder.

As you can see, VCR is chilling right next to VCP. Game launches without a problem

Got same problem, game won't start then realize that this game missing MSVCR120.dll after try launch directly from executable files.
Download then vcredist_x64.exe and vcredist_x86.exe of Visual Studio 2013 Visual C ++ Redistributable Packages and solve the problem

You don't need both, you need one or the other. If your system is 32 bit, you need x64. If your system is 64 bit, you need x86.

Open the start menu, right click computer and click properties. This will tell you what bit O/S you are running.

You can also just drag and drop the missing file into the folder. The entire library of Visual Studio is barely used anymore, which is why Windows is no longer bundled with it. It's not gonna do any harm installing the entire library however, it's just a longer proccess.

EDIT: SHOULD YOU WISH TO INSTALL MSVCP120.DLL TO THE SYSTEM32 FOLDER, YOU WILL REQUIRE A RESTART BEFORE IT WILL WORK.

ALSO, BE AWARE THAT MSVCR120 AND MSVCP120 ARE DIFFERENT DLLs. USE CAUTION WHEN USING AUTOCOMPLETE IN SEARCH ENGINES.
