i keep getting these two errors every time i try to run a blitzwerks example code and i was wondering if anyone knew why i keep getting these errors?

the first one is a missing MSVCP100.dll missing error

and the second one is a failed to load blitzterrain.dll missing error

Have you upgraded DBPro to U7.6 or U7.7 RC6?

The Blitzwerks Terrain DLL needs to be in your Compiler/Plugins-user directory (for the free version).

You also need to install the MS Visual C++ 2010 runtime.

Download that here.

[edit]
..and upgrade to the latest DBPro.

Because the DLL was written in C++ 2010.

Just as KISTech said. Applications developed in Visual C++ 2010 means anyone running the application will need the runtime, this is the same for all previous versions of Visual C++. Most other programs will install the runtime silently during installation which is why you don't usually get errors like this.

I have emailed TGC and hopefully they will include the runtime in the installer so this shouldn't happen again.

Your signature has been erased by a mod please reduce it to no larger than 600 x 120.
