Okay, I downloaded a game via BitTorrent, and tried to play the game. It said it couldn't run because it needed "mss32.dll". So I didn the obvious and googled it. I downloaded the DLL from dll-files.com. I put the file in SYSTEM32 and in the folder of the game. That didn't seem to work, so then I went into CMD and did regsvr32.
"DllRegisterServer entry point was not found."
Is this fixable? Do I need a new source or something?
um, perhaps the fact that you downloaded a game (warez any chance?) is the problem? and that it hasnt been ripped correctly??
if this is legit downloadable game, perhaps you need to contact the source site and let them know its not working.... the other thing is it may have been corrupt during the download, so try downloading it again..

Maybe it's just in the wrong folder in the game, i would try and put the .dll file in every folder in the game and then try...
what game is it ? GTA ? Max payne ?
Well, I downloaded the game about 5 times from diferrent sources, all with the same result. I put the dll in the main folder, that held all the other folders for the game.
Thanks for the input. I will try and put it in all the other folders and see what happens.
Ah... Here we go, the meat of the problem. Once I put it in all the folders I clicked on it and this was my result.
"The procedure entry point _AIL_register_3D_EOS_callback@8 could not be found in the dynamic link library mss32.dll."
I suppose that means I need to DL it again from somewhere else?
Well I just tried another source and got the same result.
the mss32.dll, looks like it's the Miles Sound System Library

My googleing let me to beleave you are trying to play a pirated version of GTA Vice City..
And to quote the answer to the same question posted on another board: Buy the game !
No, I'm playing Dungeon Siege. And I don't have the money to buy the game. So could someone that actually knows what they're talking about and can help me, I would appresiate it.
Owkay... Dungeon Seige, GTA VC.. whatever..
If you can't afford it, don't pirate it..
It's not like it's life saving technology you can't afford.. just a dumb game..
So let me tell you, as a person that actualy knows about what I'm talking about..
Soon bubba is gonna rape your virgin little A-hole in prisson, where you'll be all sad and lonley (well x-cept for bubba ;))..
and no one is there to help you, cause you didn't read the faq b4 you joined AO..
Before looking stupid...
After looking like a tard and guessing the wrong game...Quote:

It's funny that he didn't even say a single word about how warez isn't allowed here or anything like it in his first post.. he even tried to help the guy out with this problem by giving him a link to a site with an explanation on the file. I'm guessing Jinxy feels like he has to seem like the bigger man now and get the guy banned cause he got the best of him... gotta love that. =)Quote:

the_Jinx told him to buy the game, which would normally indicate his disapproval of what the guy was trying to do. Also, someone else had already mentioned that warez was frowned upon here. As well as that, he said "...led me to believe...". That phrase would generally say to me that he wasn't definitely sure about whether or not the guy was attempting to pirate a game. And lastly, as soon as the guy admitted that he was trying to illegally play the game, the_Jinx explained to him what he thought of people pirating software, and what the possible result of his actions could be.
I really don't understand what you think he did wrong. Is "If you can't afford it, don't pirate it" not enough? Does he have to actually say: "Warez are not discussed on this forum...We will not help you!"?
AFAIK, it is up to the individual whether or not they want to share knowledge; it is not on any one here's conscience if ViralxX want to pirate games. It is quite possible to simply ignore that fact and help someone with the technical issue at hand in an attempt to teach someone something. And even that is not an issue here because the_Jinx did actually stop sharing his information as soon as the facts were clarified.

I did not mean to come off as an *******. I just wanted an answer.
Anyways the chances of ending up in a JAIL CELL for pirating a game is extremely unlikely. I will ask another forum if you guys do not support piracy or filesharing. Sorry for the disturbance....
I'm just a lurker here anyways so I don't care if you ruin my reputation... I don't come here to chitchat, I come here to learn.
