The Viewer requires these Visual C++ Redistributables to be installed:

Visual C++ Redistributable 2015/2017/2019/2022 x64 (MSVCR140.DLL)
You may have to uninstall them first and then reinstall the latest versions from Microsoft if it doesn't work after installing them.
DO NOT download the Viewer anywhere else other than from these links! The Viewer is ONLY available from here and only for Windows.

ReplyDeleteHello, my viewer usually opens as if it has zoomed in without me doing anything, what can it be?
ReplyDeleteI have the exact same problem and nothing seems to fix it.
DeleteZooming in? Care to show a picture/video of what you mean?
DeleteNo, it looks like my viewer is set to a smaller screen than my monitor, I wanted to know how do I set it to a 1920x1080 screen
DeleteYou can simply drag the window edges or click the windows maximise button on the window to maximise it to your entire desktop.
DeleteMaybe you have increased the UI size. Set it back to default.
Deletehello when i download the viewer it shows on my system that a virus was detected: Trojan:Win32/Spursint.F!cl
ReplyDeletefalse positive, ignore and whitelist it
Deletehow do i whitelist it just tried to download n it said virus/threat on it.
DeleteI do not know, it depends on what program is complaining, you're best bet is googling how to do it with whatever program is detecting it as virus.
Deletecan not update says it has a virus for me as well
ReplyDeleteignore and whitelist it
DeleteHello. I just finished downloading the viewer but when I open it, it says MSVCR120.dll was not found and I just bought myself a new gaming PC costing about $1.6k with a 3070 graphics card and all... So please helppppp!!! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIt reads right up there that if you get said error message you need to install VCRedist 2013. Please read the very page you are commenting on next time.
Deletecant not download sayin its a virus :(
ReplyDeletehey can you Put the Link To VCRedist 2013 so people dont have to go looking for it and dont know what they are looking for because im having the same MSVCR120.ll Problem and i have a 2023 brand new gaming laptop also 3070 graphic or put the old links back up from previous versions please
ReplyDeleteI will never put up old releases. They also all require msvcr120.dll (all the way back to Nirans Viewer).

ReplyDeletehey when I want to start up Black Dragon I get the 0xc00007b error
ReplyDeletesays im missing a .dll file , im on windows 11 which one do i download it
ReplyDeleteRead above. It tells you where and which to download.
Deletebut its not working
DeleteMake sure its properly installed then. Go to Features and Programs, uninstall the VCRedist 2013 x64 and VCRedist 2015/17/19/22 x64 and restart your PC, reinstall the latest version from the Microsoft website and then restart your PC again.
Delete0xc00007b error - no matter what i do i cannot seem to fix this
ReplyDeleteYou are missing one of the VCRedists as described above.
DeleteI have all VCs
Deletefor me still dont works
Deleteand I reinstaled them
ReplyDeleteDid you manualy uninstall beforehand? Did you restart your PC? It must work afterwards unless you are doing something wrong.
DeleteDid all thet
Deleteand reinstaled black dragon and it done nothing
Deleteand I done thet 5 times
DeleteVCRedists, not BD. Reinstalling BD doesn't do anything, nothing is wrong with your BD install.
DeleteVC dosent work
DeleteWhat do you mean it doesnt work. Uninstall VcRedist 2013 64bit and then reinstall it from with the latest 2013 64bit from the website
Deletedid black dragon still dont work
Deletenothing I do works for black dragon and I use a softwere to see wich dll are curupted it seys all are
DeleteA software to see what dll's are corrupted? That doesn't sound legit.
DeleteThe software wouldn't even be able to tell if they were corrupt or not.
I'd recommend redownloading the latest release, make sure your browser, antivirus or defender do not block/delete the file, install the latest version and then try again. If you installed all VCRedists correctly it should run, if it doesn't and still gives you an error on startup it means that the VCRedists are not properly installed (or at the very least cannot be found in their correct windows folders where they should by default go)
BLACK DRAGON FOR MAC USER PLEASE!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteJust wanna say massive thank you for this viewer. Works flawlessly and it feels more fluid to create in second life now. Heartiest thank you.
ReplyDeleteHi, It came up for me as detecting virus in both download areas!!
ReplyDeleteCan't seem to save images using the camera feature. If I try to save to disk, I get an error saying the image can't be found. If I try to overwrite an older file, it just fails.
ReplyDeleteMake sure you have permission to write into the selected save folder, also make sure the Viewer has permission to do so and is not blocked by Defender or other Antivirus apps.
Deletehey everytime i open bd it gets stuck at precaching 77%
ReplyDeleteStuck or crashing? That sounds like your Depth of Field settings need to be reset (turn off Depth of Field or set them back to default)
Delete
