Update to Depthkit version 0.5.7!

Check out what Depthkit version 0.5.7 means for you:

• Introduction of OBJ Background Plates! This is a new and exciting export format that provides static mesh exports using averaged depth data. This results in a smoothed, static environment or background plate. See details in Export Formats.
• Introduction of Automatic Refinement (experimental). This is an update to Depthkit’s Refinement Workflow, that will allow you to leverage the power of the Refinement Algorithm without applying a mask. See details under Refinement Workflow.

Thanks for chatting @satorukoshiba!

In case anyone else is experiencing a similar issue or is getting a notification that VCRuntime140.dll was not found, please download and install this Visual Studio redistributable to resolve the issue.

Our team is aware of this snag and will be addressing it immediately. We appreciate your patience and understanding! 💙

I already re-installed VCruntime ReDistribution at many times but i could not resolve the problem.

Okay @satorukoshiba, I’m hopping back into our chat so we can dive back in. 🙂

Dear Jillian Morrow

We have found out what to do if Depthkit cannot start with the MSDOS screen displayed for a moment. 😄

It is very easy.
“Create a local account, sign in, and then reinstall DepthKit.”

At least on my four Windows 10 Pro laptops, DepthKit started as described above. 😀
I don’t know why it works in a local account environment.
But a friend who couldn’t start DepthKit in the same situation as me also tried this method and solved it too.

Best regards

Let me supplement the explanation.

If DepthKit does not start.
First, uninstall Depthkit once.

Create a local account with the features of Windows 10 as shown in the video below.

Then log in to Windows 10 with that local account and install DepthKit again.
DepthKit will then launch correctly and you will be prompted to log in with your DepthKit account.
If you log in with your DetphKit account, you’ll get great 3D capture capabilities.

Best regards
