Is this a standalone program or will I also need Pepakura Designer?

Armorsmith is a completely stand alone piece of software. You wont need any other programs for pattern generation.

I've installed but now I'm getting a DLL error, what do I do?

This means there was an issue with the installation process, either the DirectX or Visual C Runtime dll's were not installed.

Try running the following:
C:\Program Files\Armorsmith Designer\System\VC_redist_x64_2022.exe

How do I update the program?

You can select Check For Updates from the Help dropdown menu. Or alternatively you can login to www.gumroad.com with the login credentials you setup when purchasing.

I don't see the Property Grid in the UI?

There was a bug in a recent update which caused the property grid to become hidden for new users. From the menu bar choose:

Windows->Property Grid to make it visible again.

I've lost my serial number, where can I find it?

 

You can login to www.gumroad.com with the login credentials you setup when purchasing. Once logged in you should be able to find your serial number under Armorsmith in your purchases.
