You are missing some Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 files. I assume you are not running Windows XP? They come preinstalled in the environment. You will need a runtime set of files for VB. There is package around here somewhere that has the files in a download. I'll see if I can find the link.

I don't know what to tell you then. I have installed this on several computers with XP and never needed the additional files. Maybe the files are in Service Pack 2? Don't know.

Yes, BGT-Weidu also has a way to change the starting XP amount. I plan to use that method for future versions instead of the patcher.
