Hi All:
A new module is released in Vexx for building drop in replacement
Clubfoot escapements. There is a video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCecIIl ... e=youtu.be
showing how to use it. This type of escapement is known to be easier to machine as it has no pointy
teeth so wooden versions are more stable.
Thx
Art

Re: Clubfoot Escapement
Art,
Thanks as ALWAYS !+!
I installed the latest (clubfoot) version, but now, when pressing the VEXX icon I get the problem/error message that MSVCR120D.dll is missing.
I have a lot of MSVCR120.dll's on my PC but not this "D" version.

I also have the DLL issue...Windows 10, 64. Is there any way to download an earlier version of the software?
I've uninstalled the software and then did a clean install of the developmental Gearotics & Augie...the problem still existed.
I now know that Vexx is part of the Gearotics installation file. I did another clean install with the "stable" version of Gearotics and Vexx worked.
The versions that I now have:
Gearotics 3.07
Vexx 2.23
Augie 3.65
I have a comment regarding Win10 and virus detection that I'll post under an appropriate topic rather than here.

Re: Clubfoot Escapement
Hi All:
New version is uploaded. Re download and the Vexx problem should be solved. Inadvertently a debug version of
a new dll was used. SO unless you had the D.dll version of the Microsoft run-time it failed. This version should run alright.
Sorry for the headaches.
As to virus warning, I may try simply changing the name of the download, that seems to have worked
with Auggie when it was named AuggieSetup, simply renaming it to CoInstall.exe stopped the virus warnings.

I downloaded the new version and as expected it works. By the way, I don't think that the name of the program has any bearing on it being flagged as a virus.
