Aurora Paradox:
I've run into a bit of trouble getting Starshatter to start up. For the record, I followed the instructions in the opening post to the letter. When I first attempted to launch the game it told me I was missing a DLL file. Specifically, msvcr100. I downloaded the missing DLL from dll-files.com and chucked it in the game directory. This time when I attempted to start the game a new error message appeared.
Unfortunately, I don't believe the game generated an error log of any kind. If someone can provide me with instructions on how to create one I will post it.
I've attached an image of the error message I'm getting. I hope that helps.
I'm running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and it has the latest patches from Microsoft. The graphics card is an NVIDIA Geforce 250 GTS. The driver version is 296.10. I know its not the latest version that was released this month. I prefer to not update my video card drivers right after a new batch is released. Just in case they missed any bugs.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

This has to do with a missing Visual C++ Redistributable package but I can't remember which one. In the original install guide at starshattermods I had a link that The E provided that fixed this issue. As soon as we figure it out I'll update the OP.
For right now here's the MS Answers Page.

I download and installed Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Packager for (x64), Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package for (x64), and Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64). I also downloaded and installed the security updates that were available for them.
Unfortunately, this did not resolve the issue. I'm still receiving the same error message as before.

Please forget that a site like dll-files.com even exists :P Those things do generally more harm than good.
As for the error posted, that one generally hints at a corrupted registry. I generally do not like to advise it, but using one of the registry cleaning programs available may be able to help here.
starlord:
rscaper, out of curiosity, are also the modfiles like the solcom and guardian mods preserved or still accessible?
