    I'm scared that installing this will disrupt everything else on my new PC. I don't want to revert back to anything. What changes is this going to make in regards to everything else?

    It's a Service Pack for Visual Studio, it add libraries that Visual studio uses and it happens to install that dll. I don't know what changes it makes, if any.

    I don't know how to revert something without reverting it.

    If it's a worry, make an image of your C drive in its current state. If you HAD to undo this SP, you can restore from the image and  be back to exactly where you started.

    Have you tried re-running the v19.5 installer again as the error message suggested?
    You could also try re-running the v19.0 installer. You would need to get that from the hash ftp (not this forum) if you don't still have the v19.0 installer.

    However, I have more confidence in the Service Pack solution being a solution.

    It's Low Key. and can I post a GIF god damn it ?

    Hi Darrin,

    When you are drafting a post there should be a space at the bottom where you can either click and hunt for the file you want or drag it in from another window...

    The animation was handled by Walt Disney Animation Studios and directed by Eric Goldberg. Donald is voiced by Tony Anselmo, and Mickey is voiced by Bret Iwan.

    “It’s been a great honor to direct two of our greatest stars, Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse, on this special episode of Hot Ones,” Goldberg said in a statement. “Of course, Donald can get a bit cranky at times, but all of the artists involved loved animating him!”

    No official credits were included with the released project, but an unofficial list of creative credits has been posted online, which we are sharing below:

    Written and directed by Eric Goldberg
    Produced by Dorothy McKim
    Technical direction: Rebecca Thompson
    Animation: Courtney DiPaola, Eric Goldberg, Ella Louise Khan, Jamie Oliff, Tyler Pacana, Austin Traylor, Andreas Wessel-Therhorn
    Clean-up animation: Rachel Bibb, Suzanne Burks, Dietz Ichishita, Emily Jiuliano, Megan Kreiner, Tracy Lee, Dan Tanaka
    Ink and paint: Rachel Bibb
    Cg nugget: Darrin Hollings
    Cg nugget additional look support: Colin Eckart

     

     

  4. After conferring, we found that @Tom 's A:M was behaving oddly.

    If he went to Render to File and left the "Format" as default AVI,  then went to the  Filename dialog...

    image.png

     

    ... to set a file "Type" there, such as .tga...

    image.png

     

    ... that would cause A:M to append a fictious .ic file type when saving a render (and fail because there is no .ic type)  instead of the .tga he wanted.

    image.png

    I'll note that in my A:M I get a different behavior. Trying to set a file type in the filename dialog has no effect at all! The Filetype will always be what was set in "Format"

     

    The work-around is to always use the drop-down list at "Format" to choose a file type, and to not select a filetype in the filename dialog

    In addition, the "Set" option lets you set any parameters that are peculiar to a format, such as compression, or bit depth.

  5. Steffen pointed me to an older version of the MS Visual C++ Redistributable at this address

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#visual-studio-2010-vc-100-sp1-no-longer-supported

    It is in this portion of the page, although the above link should take one to this directly.

    This solved the problem of the missing dll.

    Steffen tells me that the A:M installer is built to install this dll so it is uncertain why it didn't work in this case.

  6. UPDATE FROM THE FUTURE:

    Since this thread was made, a new option has been added... Measure Distance.

    In Modeling Mode, Shift-select any two points. They don't need to be on the same spline....

    image.png

     

    RMB on the selection and choose Measure Distance

    A popup will report the distance.

    Went to address and attempted to download the 32 bit file.

    First , are you really on a 32-bit computer? It would have to be ancient. However, the 32-bit version can run on a 64-bit Windows.

    Assuming it is the CRDOWNLOAD in Download File Folder. When I click on it, it wants a program to run it. Which should I use?

     

    CRDOWNLOAD? What is that? :unsure:

    [UPDATE: the CRDOWNLOAD file seems to be an incomplete download on a Chrome-based browser, of which MS Edge is one. Installing and downloading in Firefox solved the problem]

     

    After i right-click on the link in Jason's post, I choose "Save Link As"...

     

    image.png

     

    ... then I choose a save location that will be easy to find and I take note of the file name that is being downloaded. In my case it is "AM_64Bit.exe"...

    image.png

     

    That file is my installer and that is what I will run to install A:M.

  8. If you didn't get the download location you can download the latest installer from this page...

    https://forums.hash.com/topic/53444-v195c/#comment-432447

     

    After you run that installer and it finishes, run A:M and it should ask you for that 16 digit code.

    Of course, you will do this on the computer you intend to use A:M on.

    I recommend directly copying and pasting the Code from the email into the A:M request window.

    Welcome back to A:M!

  9. i enjoyed the first volume of Mickey Dailies so I  picked up Vol 2. 

    In 1932 A corrupt and scheming law enforcement official is a plausible plot point in Mickey's America:

    BTW, notice how, although the characters' clothing is black, they have snuck in non-black shading on the near arms and legs to maintain some interior silhouette on those limbs which would otherwise be lost inside the mass of black of their bodies.

    There is white line on overlaps elsewhere in these frames, so i wonder what the thinking was to choose the different treatment.

     

  10. In another thread you wrote this...

     I have revived another system to High Sierra 10.13.6 and have installed my AM ver. 16.0 so now I should be able to work again BUT my activation code is not working so how do I get in touch with Jason for a new code.....

     

    Based on what you describe, the code you previously bought was installed and working on another computer? That will cause the error you cite above when you try to use it on another computer.

    If it's not expired, then ask Jason if he can write it to transfer a new computer.

    If it is expired, then you need to buy a new license and get a new activation code.

    wants me to sign in but says info is wrong

    Do you mean you are trying to sign into your Hash store account? Or something else?

     

    If you are trying to log into the store, did you try resetting your password?

    Of course, you must be using the exact same email address you signed up with.
