Hi

When I try to run the program in windows 7 64 bit. I get a windows notice saying it could not run the program and nothing else.

The program is installed on a separate HD not my main C: drive it has always worked in the past.

cheers Rowlando

I reinstalled this zip file and its up and running Blacksmith3D-v5.1.0.4-Win

What is the update file, the program can't seem to update properly, but I did download the file texture transformer update, Is this the only update or is there more??

Thanks Rowlando

Hi,

If I am reading this right, it appears you have loaded Blacksmith3D version 5. Version 6 is the current version. Also, version 6 is a completely new program. I have both Version 5 and 6 running on my Windows 7 64-bit computer. Since it is on another drive it would be worth right clicking on the Blacksmith3D.exe file to check Properties to see if you have read and execute permissions under the Security tab since that is the kind of message that Windows gives for security problems.

Hi Jack

I have the program running fine, just need to get the updates, I will need to check what happens with a new program and if its a free upgrade?

Thanks for your help.

It definitely sounds like it's a window's security issue. I think in Win 7 you can right click on the .exe file, Go to "Properties" and click the "Unblock" button on the "General" tab.  The most up to date version 5 can be downloaded from here:  http://blacksmith3d.com/files/Blacksmith3D-v5.1.0.10-Win.zip

Upgrades to version 6 can be purchased from our Exclusive store in the Renderosity Marketplace (which are currently on sale).   http://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/?vendor=Blacksmith3D

Hi Thanks for the info.

I checked the properties and clicked the unblock button, opened the program tried the check for updates but got the same problem, so I clicked your link and am downloading it cheers.

Re The upgarde I checked out the page, but could not see a comparison or what is actually upgraded from V5. If I am missing something can you direct me to the correct page for comparison reasons no point to an upgrade unless huge improvements are there.

New Features in Version 6

  • Completely New User Interface has a redesigned menu to bring you the best elements of version 4's familiar layout while retaining the most powerful features of the version 5 workflow.
  • Images for Layers - just like your favorite 2D paint application! Create any number of layers, change the blending modes and strengths for ultimate texture compositions.
  • See thumbnail images with names under them for your texture maps.
  • NEW concave shading, convex highlighting and normalize display modes for the "Selection Touchup Brush."
  • Now imports DazStudio DUF and Poser PP2 files in addition to the OBJ & CR2 import, and OBJ, CR2, MAT and MOR export options.
  • CR2 & PP2 file importer now supports all "simple" map assignments in the Poser shader tree.
  • Import & Export FBX file formats - currently in Beta version 6.0.7.0.
  • Quick Render View was updated to support all channels, including glossy (highlight size).
  • Unlimited Display Groups in Blacksmith3D PRO (the only limitation is what your computer can handle).
  • MAT/CR2 export now has an option to export complete package to a Runtime in one simple step to save Poser artists more time.
  • NEW "Angle: parameter to rotate the brush tip.
  • Now preserves the displacement map strengths from imported CR2 files, and the displacement amount is visually the same as in Poser.
  • Blacksmith3D's Texture Transformer comes FREE inside of the Blacksmith3D PRO version 6.
