It says application failed to initialize(0xc0000135)

Please read this post on the previous page of this thread.

I never figured out a way to fix this - the way to work around it is to run your mouse across until you reach the name of the plant you want (in some cases this off the chart). You can still get the info you need, just have to work a little harder for it.

I have Vista and when I download the VST, I have it saved to my desktop, then I right click on the zip file, and choose "extract all". Next I get a folder on the desktop, opening it, I can drag the VST to my desktop and have no problems using it.

Though ever so often I loose all my seeds in the VST, even though I close down the game. I have to close the game in two different places, so I know it's closed down completely. I also make sure that I put the game on "stop time" before I close the game down to go to the VST.

What is the limit on the number of seeds you can put in the VST? Is there a max seed count? Is it for one player or a max total for all?

I have Vista to get it to work as it should I had to first save the file then open it to my desk top. once I had it on my desktop I had to right click go to properties click on the compatablity tab and check it run as xp. Once I did that it works just fine.

I don't think there is a max number of seeds for the VST, I have hundreds in my tray.

Thank you. Me, too. It's why I started to wonder. I don't know where I read 1500, I can't find it, so maybe I'm imagining things. I have hundreds in there, too - now that I have 376 species. I'm trimming it to just two of each as I get entire rows of a flower or columns of one plant.

My seeds will not delete when I want to start over. All the seeds remain in vst no matter what I do to try to delete them. I have to delete all seeds by hand. Very annoying.

This utility is not part of Plant Tycoon and was not developed by LDW. Since it's separate from the game, it maintains separate save files. You can read more about them here, but if you want all the seeds gone, simply delete VST's save file for that game slot.
