However, an official release on the PS Vita was never announced or realized. The PS Vita, released in 2011, did receive a variety of games, but a GTA: Vice City port was not among them. GitHub, a platform for version control and collaboration, hosts various projects, including open-source software, games, and ports. While there might not be an official GTA: Vice City repository, enthusiasts and developers sometimes work on ports or mods for games.
You're looking for information on a Grand Theft Auto: Vice City port for the PlayStation Vita (PS Vita) and perhaps a GitHub repository related to it. Let's piece together the information: Grand Theft Auto: Vice City was initially released for the PlayStation 2 in 2002, and it has since been ported to various platforms, including the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as part of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition in 2021. gta vice city ps vita github best
The problem is with the "dependency". The only dependency is the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012. The Chilkat .NET assembly is a mixed-mode assembly, where the inner core is written in C++ and compiles to native code. There is a dependency on the VC++ runtime libs. Given that Visual Studio 2012 is new, it won't be already on most computers. Therefore, it needs to be installed. It can be downloaded from Microsoft here:
Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012
If using a .msi install for your app, it should also be possible to include the redist as a merge-module, so that it's automatically installed w/ your app if needed.
Note: Each version of Visual Studio corresponded to a new .NET Framework release:
VS2002 - .NET 1.0 2003 - .NET 1.1 2005 - .NET 2.0 2008 - .NET 3.5 2010 - .NET 4.0 2012 - .NET 4.5The ChilkatDotNet45.dll is for the .NET 4.5 Framework, and therefore needs the VC++ 2012 runtime to be present on the computer.
Likewise, the ChilkatDotNet4.dll is for the 4.0 Framework and needs the VC++ 2010 runtime.
The ChilkatDotNet2.dll is for the 2.0/3.5 Frameworks and requires the VC++ 2005 runtime. (It is unlikely you'll find a computer that doesn't already have the VC++ 2005 runtime already installed.)
