Freddy,
  As far as I know this is part of the MS system and not an add in from someone else.  Other downloads work.

Well, unfortunately I can't really help with MS's problems - the best thing I can suggest is to download the off-line installer, it worked for me.

This is just a simple tutorial I put together to help you get the Haptek player into a Visual Basic project.  The tutorial comes with a example project to show how you can send commands to the player.  I hope it is of some use for those just starting on this kind of thing.  Comments appreciated and do get back to me if something isn't working right.

Hi Freddy, wonder if you can help...? I'm working on a C# / Visual Studio app that uses the Haptek player. I next need to build a set-up / deployment project so users can install my app. However, when I build the set-up file, then run it on a Windows PC that does NOT have the Haptek player installed, the app crashes due to a missing file (probably some DLL).

My question is, do you know the list of files / references / dependencies needed when building a set-up  deployment project?

Thanks.

Hi Robotman,

I understand your question but I am afraid I can't answer it because I never really did much work on the deployment side.  I was happy enough to ask people to install the player beforehand.

The deployment side seems like a whole new ball game to me and is still something I have to learn.  But you could ask over on the VHumans forum and see if someone there can give you some general advice - that's where the programmers tend to hang out.

Best of luck.
