Problems installing 3D Movie Maker

VGCharacters · 11:10 PM

Hey guys. This is my first post on here, and I really have no idea where else to put it. A few months ago, I installed 3D Movie Maker from here to try it out and I thought it was a lot of fun so I got a whole lot of mods. Eventually I got bored of it and deleted it. Yesterday however, I decided to come back so I used the modern installer to re-install it. I checked all of the checkboxes to get the expansions and v3DMM, but when it finished installing, only the normal vanilla installation of 3D Movie Maker was there. Does anybody know what I did wrong?

EDIT: I will attempt to install it on a USB Drive. I will report back with what happens.

EDIT #2: Same thing happens. It installs but no v3dmm or expansions.

Whelp, I tried to install v3dmm, but during the installation process it said it couldn't remove some old files. I didn't install 3DMM in the default Program Files folder, and I'm not 100% sure but I think that might've been what caused the problem. Weirdly enough, the first time I installed 3DMM, I also didn't install it in Program Files and it went just fine and no issues occurred.

Okay, so I was able to get it working, although in a very weird and unconventional way. First, I installed the files on a virtual machine. Then, I transfered the installed files on a USB drive and transferred them to my computer. It now works fine!

Text Signatures are illegal, you need to change it.

Nah, I don't believe you.

Believe it or not, it is against the rules, your signature is illegal so change it to an image or a GIF.

So is it some unwritten rule or something? I was thinking of removing my signature anyways because I'm not going to be doing content creation until I figure it out properly.

Oh and don't forget to read the site rules.

VGCharacters · 05-01-2020, 03:55 AM

Yeah, I read them beforehand.

Okay, so it turns out the problem wasn't actually completely solved...v3dmm loads up just fine, but no expansions appear, not even 3D Movie Maker itself! By this point, I'm completely lost on how to fix the problem, if it even can be fixed.
