It's been a long time since I have tinkered with directx programming, but aren't lost devices usually the result of ALT-TABing or other window related nonsense. Perhaps it is having issues playing nice with other open windows in the background?
EDIT:
Closing all other windows makes it work. Missed that on page 5 of this thread. Strangely enough ALT-TAB doesn't seem to break this though.
EDIT 2: Never mind what I said ALT-TAB does seem to break it. SC2 hangs if I ALT-TAB but I can't tell if that's on my end and the log seems fine.

That makes absolutely no sense. Since that version, I've made it require *less* dll's directly on injection, so it shouldn't give a 127 error if it didn't then...

You can actually just minimize all other windows and it should work, you don't have to close everything. And the crash when you minimize it is related to the crash when you switch from windowed fullscreen-> fullscreen while in a game, so that'll be fixed whenever I fix that. Still don't know why it can't start in fullscreen half the time, but I will work on that as soon as I have time.

I wish the other XP users would back me up and post more in the thread and confirm if they have a log. More user opinions would make it easier for you to narrow it down.
To be honest, I was surprised that I dug up the Aug 9th log. I don't remember it working back then, in fact, I had thought that no log at all was generated. I may be wrong though, so don't fixate too much on this point.

Ah, I redownloaded APMALERt2. The Aug 9 logfile came from your latest build, so that's resolved.

That poll is useless. If you get a 127 error, you obviously aren't going to get a log because the DLL never got injected. The question should be: XP users, do you get a 127 error?
The dll's APMAlert requires on injection are:
kernel32.dll
user32.dll
advapi32.dll
msvcr100.dll
The first 3 are standard in Windows, the last one comes from the MSVC 2010 redistributable (linked in the requirements). A 127 error signals that you are missing one of those dll's, but you shouldn't be since you said you installed that redistributable. This especially makes no sense because prior to me updating it recently, APMAlert required *more* dll's on injection, like the dll for DirectX, the dll for D3DX, and winmm.dll for sound. Now those are loaded after injection, so that a log file can still be generated in cases of those missing. But the fact that you managed to get a log file before means that you had *all* of those dll's, even the ones that are now loaded after injection. So you can see why I'm confused as to why it would run then but not now.
Edit: On another note, I did just realize SC2 uses a slightly older version of the D3DX dll, so thats guaranteed to be installed on people's machines. Next version I upload will no longer need you to download that (although it won't hurt if you already did).

Both me and my brother are running XP and get the 127 error.
Cascades that is not an error log you are getting. There is no error message anywhere in it and is useless as a result of that.

This thing says i'm pulling 260+ APM...that cant be right... My replay APM says I average 95 which is far more believable.
Edit woot! I hit over 400 APM....great idea, just need it to display accurate apm

still getting the 127 error here. XP user.

I think you missed the header from my poll. The Aug 9 logfile came from downloading a build which includes a log file. So it NEVER worked, and no logfile was EVER generated. And previous posts above me, XP users mentioned 127 error.

hi,
i also get:
unable to load dll winjection.dll. The specified module could not be found. exception from HRESULT 0x8007007E
i tried:
- installing MSVC 2010 x64
- installing dx runtime
- starting in windowed mode
- yelling at the program
i have EU version of the game and Win 7 64.
edit:
installed MSVC 2010 x86 now and it solves the above issue. nevertheless i dont see shit ingame... no apm counter, no clock, nothing

Any progress posted would be appreciated I am still patiently waited for a fix for winxp users
|
Bump for this topic. Though I guess tec27 has little idea on what's wrong with it on winxp. I guess I was a little confusing, so let's just summarize that it has never worked for winxp users. No log files ever, and error 127 on latest build.

Sorry to be a sceptic, but i just have to question this:
What purpose does this program or any APM-meter serve?
Only brain-dead fan boys obsess over APM, don't think on how fast you are playing. Think of what the frekk you need to be doing to win and do that next step. Then the next, and the next, and the next. Until you can preform that at light speed.
If you are using this program, notices your APM is dropping and start spamming buttons for no reason. Then you are an utter failure!
Sorry for the harsh words, but they needed to be said.

hey there forum warrior why dont you try to get on that level of play before you try to give other people advice.
I am at 120-150 apm and i feel like this kind of program is exactly what i need because my speed mostly suffers as a result of inactivity periods in games where my apm drops after initial spam and then takes a while to pick up.
I also think you need dimaga-apm to play zerg effectively, so all your SC2 is ez 100 apm world champion nonsense goes straight into the gutter.

hmm, i do have an issue with it tho, i managed to get the clock to show up when i ran it windowed however the apm counter is nowhere to be found and the log file seems absolutely proper:

Hehe, forum warrior. I like that title. ^^
No I'm not that good so I can only rely on what I read from people better than me (Chill, Ver, Artosis, Day[9] ).
If the programs helps you, that great!
I do however find it strange that you believe that there is a "ramp-up" time after less intensive periods in a match. Why do you think this?
I think APM is secondary to strategy and response. It doesn't matter how frekking fast you do something if its the wrong thing to do.

everybody knows APM == skill. moving on...

I had the exact same winjection.dll problem. you dont need to install msvc 2010 its enough when you install the 2010 visual c++ x86 runtime (5 Mb)
Now i have exactly the same log and i dont see or hear apm alert in the game
i also have win7 x64 and the eng_gb_eu-client of starcraft2

No but seriously, will this be considered a 3rd party software/hack that results in banning? Blizz has been erratic with their bans. Looks like if they detect anything at all they will ban first and ask questions later.
