Problems with steam

[lucaneves42]

Everytime I try to play the game, the launcher gets stuck on "Installing Microsoft VC Reddist Package"

Yes, everytime, not just on the first time I've launched the game (as intended).

Any solution to this? Anyone with the same problem?

Fix from Caswal:

Find the file: appmanifest_293760.acf and open it notepad.

It should look something like this:

"AppState"

{

"AppID" "293760"

"universe" "1"

"name" "Automation - The Car Company Tycoon Game"

"StateFlags" "4"

"installdir" "Automation"

"LastUpdated" "1426280295"

"UpdateResult" "0"

"SizeOnDisk" "2390416132"

"buildid" "553826"

"LastOwner" "76561198184825495"

"BytesToDownload" "4811872"

"BytesDownloaded" "4811872"

"AutoUpdateBehavior" "0"

"AllowOtherDownloadsWhileRunning" "0"

"UserConfig"

{

"betakey" ""

"language" "english"

}

"MountedDepots"

{

"228982" "6413394087650432851"

"228990" "1829726630299308803"

"229000" "4622705914179893434"

"293761" "43578321044092464"

}

"InstallScripts"

{

"0" "_CommonRedist\\vcredist\\2008\\installscript.vdf"

"1" "_CommonRedist\\DirectX\\Jun2010\\installscript.vdf"

"2" "_CommonRedist\\DotNet\\3.5\\installscript.vdf"

}

}




Now you need to edit the last Part with the "InstallScripts" like this:

"InstallScripts"

{

}


Save the file and that should fix the issue.
