XCOM 2 is missing 2 wintricks where do I report this?
Hi, not sure where to post the issue.
After installation, XCOM 2 is missing vcrun2012 and vcrun2013, the tutorial is unplayable without it.
Where do I report this to be fixed?
thanks

is this xcom2 from the gog store?

because we added the required package last week https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/known-fixes/commit/0649e73aaa5ddcbd4bb2e5a777d7f471b4422d90
are you saying it needs both 2012 and 2013 and that it doesn't work with 2022?
extended-salmonOP•3w ago
yea the GOG version
I freshly installed it XCOM 2 this weekend and I couldn't move the characters in tutorial

not sure if you really need both the 2012 and 2013, it wasn't clear for me from that post so I just installed both to not have possibly problems later
I also have XCOM 1 from GOG do you need me to test it too?

I think it would be nice to confirm which package exactly is needed, if it's just 2013 we can change the known fix to only install that and remove the 2022 if it's not needed anymore
about XCOM1, it's fine if you want to test it, but maybe that one just works
Well, my testing suggests only 2022 is required, but that wasn't enough for the two people in that thread. I don't think they tested without 2022 (is there a way to tell Heroic to not do automatic fixes?)

@arieljuod I can test with as it is being installed now (it seems 2022 got installed automatically) and then try it with 2013. But it will be tomorow around same time because its getting late now

no problem, no hurry

so I have deleted the game and prefix and reinstalled
I can confirm the toturial doen't work with vcrun2022
when installing vcrun2013 in worked, since the game was released in 2016 I asumed it needed the lates for that time which was vcrun2013, so installed vcrun2013 and I can confirm the game neededs vcrun2013
rising-crimson•3w ago
no need to uninstall the game, just deleting the prefix is enough to test
extended-salmonOP•3w ago
ok
Solution

I'll update the known fix to do vcrun2013 instead then, thanks

I will test xcom 1 now, I just dowloaded it
xcom 1 seems to be working with current defaults (at least the tutorial)
