New S3D v4 installtion

[mattstrike]

I'm running win7 x64. Installed the new x64 S3D finally. Went to start it, and got an error for a missing .dll file. My computer is mostly up to date, have the latest c++ redistributables and all that. After going through some runaround I got it working finally, but I had to find about 20 .dll files...

Here's a list of .dll files that my computer did not have, although my antivirus software did have them in it's install folder, so I was able to just copy and paste them into the S3D installation folder. In case I'm not the only one to run into this issue, hope this helps.

If those files weren't installed, then you did NOT have a successful install of the C++ Redistributable (as those files are already installed by that package).

EDIT: looks like there's actually an FAQ about this now too:

If your files are not installing in a specific manner that means you did not succesfull install of the c++ . As per my suggestion you have to install dll file because there is a not big problem all are happening due to only the error of installing. There is link that is solve your problem go to https://fixdll.net /msvcp100 for download it and it helps you in remove your error.
