Followed all instructions to a T and still I get this

[WhatevenisaC]

Yep .exe crashes instantly when I open it.

Did you compile this from the latest source or did you download this from the releases?

[Lyut]

this is most likely not the case but i found out a bug that crashes DSPatcher when a file called dreamseeker.exe.bak is already present, i'm investigating and refactoring a bit the DSPatcher code as it was thrown together real fast

[WhatevenisaC]

I tried it from a separate drive and bingo it works?

[WhatevenisaC]

Also, sick work that you're doing.

Possibly a permissions issue, it's hard to pinpoint the issue without knowing a bit more detail. As you probably know latest Windows versions are trying to "enforce" (?) users to stick to their home directories and write access is limited over the C: root and Program Files directories.

Were you administrator? if not, was it an administrator account? Which "Did you try running as admin" would be my question then.

Anyways I'll look a bit further on DSPatcher, thanks!

Move your dreamdaemon.exe outside of the byond folder, and into the one containing DSPatcher.exe

Byond, after Calamari and Kakascript started turbo-protecting the .exes and .dlls inside of the beyond folder to attempt to prevent auto-patches and scrapers.

It's a half-measure, but an annoying one.
