Doesn't seem to be working in my Win XP 32-bit or 64-bit.
When I double-click on TornadoChess_5.exe I get:
not a valid Win32 application

Is some dll missing?
No dll's came with the ZIP file. ARe u using XP 32 or 64 bit cause this program is only 64-bit?

Tornado 5 is compiled with Visual Studio 2012 thats need the runtime library of .NET framework 4.5

you can download and install it on your system first here:

or it is a general problem with Windows XP, on Windows 7 are no problem to run it.

I have Windows 7 with .NET framework 4.5.1. When I double-click on the executable, I get the following error message: "The program can't start because MSVCR110.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix your computer."

I believe this is the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable dll that is needed for projects built with Visual Studio 2011.

Hi.
For this MSVCR110.dll, when I compile Andscacs I prefer to include it inside the .exe. It's only a switch, and is a lot easier to run the engine for everybody.

Note that even with Windows 7, TornadoChess_5.exe asks for msvcr110.dll and msvcp110.dll and only runs when they are present !

Supported operation systems by Microsoft applications:


Microsoft Visual Studio 2012

Windows 7 SP1 (x86 und x64)
Windows 8 (x86 und x64)
Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (x64)
Windows Server 2012 (x64)

Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1
http://www.microsoft.com/de-de/download ... x?id=40779

Windows 7 Service Pack 1; Windows 8; Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1; Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2; Windows Server 2012; Windows Vista Service Pack 2


Perhaps a compile with MS Visual Studio 2010 could solve the Windows XP problem, because Tornado v4.88 win32 causes no difficulties....
