For some reason whenever I try to run a program I made using DB, it doesnt execute. Its says that my licensed plugin is not recognized by the compiler. Any help with this?

i would try running dbp as an administrator. if that doesn't work, try backing up your up your programs and then reinstall dbp.

I'm facing a similiar problem. The only difference is that I can make executables but it can't run standalone. I mean if you have DBpro, then it'll run but if you don't have it then it won't run.
I came to know about it when I shared my own created game with my friends but they say that they're getting error.

This is TDM (i.e. The Dark Man).

@Foolish: Which plugin is causing the problem? In the "EditorNew" IDE click the icon with the green pyramid on it, it should show you a collection of licensed plugins you have installed. Check to make sure yours is not greyed out.

@Let the games begin: Your friends might need to download and install the latest directx update. Also, if you're using IanM's matrix utils, you'll need to include the relevant .dlls as well.

I am convinced about your suggestion but my friends ar having latest updates of Dx11. Here's my executable

Download the first link.
I'm confident that you'll be able to run it but for some reason those who don't have DBpro, won't get it run.
I have used no addons or any external dlls. You can look that in the source I've provided.

Ahhh, I know the problem, people get it when they have installed special pack 1 for Windows 7. You need to compile with the latest Release Candidate of DBPro which is RC7. You can find it here. That should solve the problem.

The latest Directx download from Microsoft has always fixed it for me...
