There have been many posts on the 3D library in the "General Discussion" forum, some of them mentioned this. From what I remember, it could possibly be because the dll files are missing or if you are missing the MSCVRT60.dll, but you'd be better off reading the posts firsthand.

Another guy in german forum got fixed some stuff with

Hi Baker.
But can u run it from the editor.?
Cuz you need to put the dll's in the same directory as your final .exe'file
That's
-------------
YourProgram.exe
msvcp60.dll (Or some system dir depending on your os)
Engine3D.dll
STLPort_vc645.dll
--------------

Check out the Bug Reports forum
You might finde a hint or two there

regards
Henrik.
