i was hoping someone(From Stardock) would realize that the current posted version of Galaxy Forge is missng some dependencies with it's DLL.

Anyway I fixed it myself by downloading the Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable and installing.

This is required because of it says: "Microsoft.VC90.CRT could not be found"

Obivously it needs version 9 which is VS2008

Version 8 was VS2005 which most people have by now.

Maybe this is stated somewhere but all I saw was requires .Net 2.0

Thanks for posting your fix for this.  I just got Sins a couple days ago and ran into the same frustration today, and was so glad to find this thread, it got forge working spiffy. :)

Ah good find. Our mistake (we didn't notice because we all have the crt's installed for development). When I update the tools for the new patches I'll be sure to include this.
