max 2008 Latest Ofusion CE error code 127

I'm trying to help a friend solve this issue with his attempt to install oFusion CE.

He gets three errors when he opens max

omaterial.dlt failed to initialise error code 127
ofusion.dle as above
ofusioncore.gup as above

any support on this?

The error code 127 is for "The specified procedure could not be found", it means that the OS has not find a procedure (the function or method within a dll file) from a library file

This error is usually because a different version is installed (as if you selected the Max 7 version in the installer and your machine has Max 2008), or you dont have all the needed supporting libraries (MS Runtime libs), or if you manually have modified any installed dll with a different version (cg.dll or Ogre dll files)

not sure what he chose at install time for the version, I'll ask, in the meantime...

VC2005redist was installed and latest DirectX updates, is there anything else required?

Those are all the system libs needed
