AccuRender nXt

advanced rendering for AutoCAD

Nxt Render not even opening in 2014 Student version of Auto Cad

It appears as though the download happened correctly yet Nxt render will not open in Auto Cad 2014 student version.  This is what I get.  

AcRx Dynamic Linker failed to load C:Program Files\accurender nxt\accurendernxt 19arx

 I have tried the suggestion of making sure the trusted path is in the correct location and that has not lead to the app loading into Auto Cad correctly.  

Any suggestions?

Please use these instructions on this link to try manually loading nXtRender:

http://wiki.mcneel.com/accurender/nxt/documentation/troubleshooting/installation

If it still does not load, then perhaps one of the redistributable files did not run correctly during the install.

Try running these redists:

vcredist_2005_x86.exe

vcredist_2008_x86.exe

vcredist_2010_x86.exe

in this folder:

C:\Program Files\AccuRender nXt\RPS_SUPPORT\redist

and see if you get any error messages.

If there are no error messages, try manually loading nXtRender again.

I am facing this issue too. Only I am using the full commercial version of AutoCAD 2014 Vanilla. I get the same message:

AcRxDynamicLinker failed to load 'c:\program files\accurender nxt\accurender nxt_19_64.arx'

when I try to manually load the program using the ARX command. I tried reinstalling/repairing all the Visual Studio redistributables listed above, but no success.

I am using "OC12w 1.0" release of nXtRender. If you need any other info from my system, let me know.

Dependency Walker on the offending ARX shows this

I see the same thing when I look at that file using depends on that dll:

But i opens and runs for me using APPPLOAD  from AutoCAD.

Could you try running sXsTrace to see if we can find might  be missing?

Do you need instructions on how to run sXsTrace?

Were you able to load a previous version of nXtRender before you installed the OC12 release?

type appload ,,, that the answer

No Appload doesn't work either.

Rich, I'll check SxSTrace and update here. I was able to load the earlier one in 2013. Didn't check with 2014 since I installed it recently. Removed 2013 to do that. I can reinstall and check again.

Do the SxSTrace before anything else.  This stuff is almost always a case of missing run times.

This is the output of SxSTrace when using APPLOAD:

Not sure if it shows anything useful, since it seems to be logging only the fact that APPLOAD itself is loading.

CAN WE GET PETER MILNER TO TRAIN SOME OF US FOR A TOKEN ?

Good day, forum members,I was thinking that we could each, if interested, contribute a significant token to give Peter Milner and David to train us virtually in nxt render for Autocad. Am not sure he still uses it but the experience he has spanning over 20 years cannot be underestimated. I wish the forum co-ordinators could look into this. So that more of us will produce realistic renders with the paid version of nxt render and we will be able to encourage other users of other more advanced…See More
