Recommended Posts

Hello guys,

I just came here because i cant compile the EO engine with vb6\. Maybe i missed something… Vb still say MSCOMCTL.OCX count not be loaded.

There is apparently a problem with MSCOMCTL.OCX but I tryed many ways to make it work but it still doesnt :( ty microsoft.

I have vb6 entreprise edition,I installed eo runtime but dunno i keep trying to find a solution :/

My biggest problem is a really easy implementation (attack sprite with 2-3 sprites, so we can get too many animation for attacks depending of hability or just when player spam (like combo in some fight games)) but without compiling i cant do anything :(

So if someone can help me to make VB6 works or simply take 5-10 minutes to compile the new eo engine for me i congratz him in advance.

I dont know anything about visual basic (too old for me) but i can take a day for write the code part to make it works if someone can compile it for me.

I m on window7 (64bit) trying to compile the last EO 4.2.3  and i didnt tryed to install everything on a xp setup but can it resolve my problem ?

Ty for reads,

And sorry for my english but I dont like to use translator otherwise i cant practice ^^

The error seems to disappear after adding MSCOMCTL.OCX as component into VB6\. But now i get this another error wich say nothing and i can see that in my serverlog

Ligne 813: La classe MSComctlLib.ListView du contrôle lvwInfo n'est pas une classe de contrôle chargée.

Line 813 : The class MSComctlLib.ListView of lvwInfo control isnt a loaded control class

Could you uninstall everything and try it like this?

* Uninstall Internet Explorer 11 from your control panel > windows update > installed updates
* Install VB6 as Administrator
* Install the EO Runtimes as Administrator
* Download a fresh copy of Eclipse's source code
* Open the freshly downloaded source

There's a high possibility that in mucking around with things you've managed to corrupt one of these, so it might help to just start over.

The easiest way to install **Visual Basic 6** is to torrent a hacked installer, but I can't give you a link since it goes under piracy. **Microsoft**'s installer barely works anymore, you are better off legitly buying the software and installing it using an illegal means. That's if you care about abiding by copyright laws for outdated software.

Compiling is likely a problem with a problematic installation.

* Uninstall **Visual Basic 6**.
* Reboot.
* Run **CCleaner**.
* Reboot.
* Install **Visual Basic 6**.

If you have already uninstalled it, ensure to skin the first 2 steps.

When i have a problem with MSCOMCTL.OCX do this:

* Restart Windows

* Delete MSCOMCTL.OCX from syswow64 or system32 then

* MSCOMCTL.OCX put to main folder where u have a files project

* Run project and manually add "CTRL + U" lib MSCOMCTL.OCX 

That help me every time when i restart PC i need do this but after 4 hours fight it's the best solution for me at now :)

I did it too :/ i deleted all mscomctl.ocx  downloaded it again and not work.

when you say CTRL+U you mean adding a composant via the component tool in vb ? its ctrl+t no ?

when i try to add it manually it say  :

Object library not registered. 

I also tryed to regserv32 mscomctl.ocx (from syswow64 and system32). 

I dont understand ;( i m gonna probably doing it with a virtual machine… but i was on lot of forum and for lot of people these solutions works :(

Ill come back i lost 2 days on this :D i can loose 1 more no ? ^^
