application configuration is incorrect/side-by-side error
If you get a Windows error on starting AC3D which looks like "application configuration is incorrect" or "side-by-side error", reinstall the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package.

Re: application configuration is incorrect/side-by-side error
I was recently faced with this problem. I had been running Windows 7 RC 32-bit and AC3D worked flawlessly. Upgraded to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and problems occured. Steps I used to fix it:
1. Make sure Windows 7 Updates are installed 2. Install AC3D into Programs folder (NOT the Programsx86) 3. Download and save Microsoft Visual into same Programs folder, then run it.http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en 4. Open AC3D successfully! Notes: I also installed Microsoft Visual for 64-bit from this link to the Programs(x86) Folder:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en I don't think this helped it, but it didn't hurt either. Let me know if this works for anyone. Last edited by Dr_TROY; 4th November 2009 at 04:10 AM. |

Re: application configuration is incorrect/side-by-side error
Windows 7 x64 Ultimate here - I could still install into "Program Files x86" and only needed to install the VC 2005 runtime - no problems at all.
The only weird thing I've noticed so far is a 4 or 5 second pause when the console window first appears. A minor annoyance at best, though - everything else seems to be working perfectly. |

Re: application configuration is incorrect/side-by-side error
I tried the Visual C++ and different folders and no joy. Are there any other ideas? Running Windows 7 64 on a Core 2 Quad with Nvidia 8800GTS

Re: application configuration is incorrect/side-by-side error
I went through the suggested steps described and got nowhere. So I waited and updated Windows 7. I just recently tried it again and got a different message:
"Unable to execute file: C:\Program Files (x86)\AC3D 6.5.28\ac3d.exe CreateProcess failed; code 740. The requested operation requires elevation." Any thoughts?

Re: application configuration is incorrect/side-by-side error
I purchased AC3D in late November 2007 (v6.2) and it installs & runs OK. I've downloaded the last 2 upgrades and they have both installed OK but will not run. The error message with both versions have a problem with a particular function in user32.dll. I use W2K and GeForce FX 5200. The version of user32.dll is 5.0.2195.7032 (4/21/2005)Is there a workaround so that I can continue using my current OS?

Re: application configuration is incorrect/side-by-side error
To anyone still having this problem.
Here is a temp. fix if you cannot back track to an older copy of Ac3d. You can download the trial version of 6.4 from TheGameCreators website at http://www.thegamecreators.com/?m=view_product&id=2092 Then enter your key, it will activate. Hopefully it will get fixed soon though. |
