In the ZBrush3.5 folder there's a folder named 'Troubleshoot Help' --> in that folder there's an exe file named 'vcredist....exe' --> execute that exe file and ZBrush should lunch fine.
(It installs Microsoft Visual C++ or something like that which you need for ZBrush 3.5.)

This is explained in the Pixologic knowledgebase. (See the "Side-by-Side Configuration" error.)
EDIT : link to that knowledgebase article: https://support.pixologic.com/index....kbarticleid=22

EDIT2 : form Pixologic :
"In a typical ZBrush installation your folders will be as follows:

• Program Files on 32-bit machines or Program Files (x86) on 64-bit machines
  
  • Pixologic
    
    • ZBrush 3.1
      
      • All files and folders
    • ZBrush 3.5
      
      
      • All files and folders

"

The folders scheme, vc++ from troubleshoot folder... that´s what I´ve got. I have the folders set like that, I have installed the vc++, but I can´t get to install it. First I was having an error that the application can´t start because the configuration is not correct... but as I installed the vc++ I don´t even get that message, all I get is the well known windows error: send error report/don´t send. you know what I mean...

I´ve already sent a ticket so now I´m waiting for a response... I really don´t know what could be the problem. Hope they will have some answers. It´s just weird that I didn´t read about anyone else having the same issues. I hope I won´t have to format the disc. But just in case... what should I do when I want to format? I mean regarding the license. I have zbrush activated online, so should I just deactivate, format the disc, install zbrush and activate? I don´t want to miss any step so I didn´t have any more problems regarding licensing... that´s the least I need - another problem.

EDIT
Wait a sec... what do you mean by "all files and folders". In zrbush 3.1 folder I only have what I had there before, and in zbrush 3.5 I only have it´s folders just like it was when it was packed. I didn´t copy anything from any of the folder to the other. Is that what you had in mind?

I doubt that the e mails are sent out alphabetically...if theres any justice...they should be sent out to those who whinged and complained less than others.

Hello all,

I am a student n i am Learning ZBrush 3.1. I love ZBrush N Sculpting
I have'nt Enough money to buy ZBrush...

If you are a student you should check out http://studica.com for an cheaper academic or non-commercial license of ZBrush.

[praxedes]

good point about the academic license- I felt paying the extra for a full license was worth it, bit if you're really strapped, then it's not a bad choice- but unlike, say Autodesk, Pixo's pirces aren't that different between the two!

But I doubt he's going to rush out and replace his cracked copy any time soon

~P~

Ghost-d : Aside from running the vcredist....exe in the troubleshooting folder, have you tried running Zbrush 3.5 as administrator? Right-click the file and press 'run as administrator'. That should do the trick.

Bonecradle : Things are going just fine, thank you David. Recently stopped working so I could afford to sit up all night waiting for the email. Good job I had coffee and ZBrush 3.1 because the only email I got was from a very nice Nigerian fellow who wanted to share his money with me. So not a total waste of time then

Hi Mentat, long time no post. And Sirquadalot ! I love how come upgrade time, us golden oldies start crawling out of the woodwork

[Xsmoke]

I must have been added to the naughty list for complaining
about the delay.
I was smoking crack that day.
So please, forgive me already.
I want my copy badly.I'm begging.

[Aumakua]

Still waiting for my email..Argh

[dark001001]

Yup, I did, but I´m not sure because I have only one account here so I figured I should be the admin (I´m not really good in this admin/user BS, I just want to work on the computer...), so when I hit "run as" and select aministrator, I have to put there a password. when I use my password it says:
"Logon Failure: unknown user name or bad password."

EDIT:
I checked and my account (named "ghostdog") is set as computer administrator. and the mystery continues... spooky, huh?

I bet you that maybe 20-30 messages with the support team and they will come here personally to see what a magic computer I´ve got here. But I always used to have issues with things I was looking forward to... I remember the time when we bought 2nd computer years ago and we couldn´t install nvidia tnt 2 drivers, then driver (game, btw that was the reason we bought the computer back then...) didn´t run,... feels like good old times are coming back...

Nothing yet this morning , but my support account is filled in correctly and i found the old mail with the ref nr for clever, so they should know about me.

Gotta be patient a bit more I'll try out Aion mmo beta.

What are the "two yet unannounced features of Z4" that made it to the 3.5 release ? Thanks.

Hope the Mac version (and Demo !) is not delayed that much. Scary to see they didn't commit the (previously announced) late September release date.

didn't they mean hardsurface brushes and Zspheres2 by that? I remember that quote was posted before those 2 features were unveiled.

I don't know, that's why I asked. Perhaps there are some other features that weren't mentioned yet. Thanks for a quick reply, anyways.

[grizley]

where demo version 3.5 ?
