Overlay Maps Zoom Error

[Dannygs90]

I've been using this script "overlay maps" and the expansion to it in my game for a while, and my sister has been playing without any problem until now. She bought a new computer and moved the game's folder to it, but for some reason the game crashes instantly when opening it. I told her to download it again and the error is still there. These are the scripts:

Overlay Maps – layered maps in Ace

This script allows you to create "overlay maps" on top of each other. In other words, map layers.Overlay maps allow you to create much more visually attractive maps sinceyou now have control

Overlay Map Zoom

This script is an add-on for the Overlay Maps script. It allows you to set up individual map zoom levels for each overlay map, allowing you to provide depth perception.DownloadScript: downlo

And this is the error:


I checked if there was something missing, but the MGC_Map_Ace.dll file is still there, and every other thing too. Is there a way to solve this or some people are gonna find this error randomly with no reason?

Also I think it has to do with that Win32API thing, but I really don't know what to do here. Any ideas?

Have you tried running the game or VX Ace in compatibility mode?
Perhaps the dll was compiled for an earlier version of .NET or Windows OS...

How do I run the game in compatibility mode?

How do I run the game in compatibility mode?

right-click on the exe and then either under properties or follow the compatibility assistent.

the exact procedure depends on which windows you have, but it is always somewhere there.

Do you have the files in the proper location?

Yup, everything is on place, and the game works for everyone except for my sister, who supposedly has a powerful computer or something. The only difference I see is that I have RGSS300.dll instead of RGSS301.dll like you, but I don't know if that means anything at all.

Where did you get the program?
All version of VX Ace in english have the 301 file.
A powerful computer shouldn't be an issue, unless she has windows 11 and vx ace is not compatible.
I don't know because I still have windows 10.
It's not a pirated copy is it? That could certainly be a possibility for it to fail.
Regardless put this into your project and see if it works.

Yeah, it is a pirated copy... And for some reason, if I put the 301 file and delete the 300, the game doesn't work, a message pops up saying that 300 is missing

that is because the pirated copies messed up with the files, your only solution is to get a legal copy.
