Title: Is it still possible to install the dependencies needed for LuaC in 2024?
Post by: ilovekittens on July 11, 2024, 06:39:08 PM

There seems to no longer be any way of setting up Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition as of 2024. When running the setup, the installer attempts 5 times to establish a connection to the download server, and they all fail, resulting in this screen:

Without this installed, however, you will just get a side-by-side error when using LuaC.

Yes, you can still find an image for an installation CD but that's not really recommended. In recent times, derpy54320 released a lua compiler, compatible with Bully and there is no need to install that Visual C++ crap anymore! Here are the links:

Lua compiler compatible with bully: http://bullyscripting.net/downloads/luac.exe (http://bullyscripting.net/downloads/luac.exe)
Lua standalone interpreter compatible with Bully: http://bullyscripting.net/downloads/lua.exe (http://bullyscripting.net/downloads/lua.exe)
