Recently instaled the OBS Multiplatform 0.12.0 on my Windows 7 SP1, I've got the "Could not find any D3DCompiler libraries" error on execution. Both 32 and 64bits version.
Ok, I solve this, but with a "creepy" solution:

I've copy the d3dcompiler_47.dll 32 and 64 bits versions on the Windows directory (Windows/system32 for 32bits and Windows/SysWOW64 for 64 bits). It didn't work.
BUT, I tryed to copy the d3dcompiler_47.dll 32bits version on the SysWOW64 directory and... The OBS 32 bits works!!!
So, I tryed too to copy the d3dcompiler_47.dll 64bits version on the system32 directory and... The OBS 64 bits works too!

WTF hell is that?!!!

This isn't a bug. SysWOW64 is for 32 bit files (Windows 32 on Windows 64), system32 is for 64 bit files (named for historical reasons). Next time use the DirectX installer and don't worry about details like this :).

Thanks for the reply! I was always thinking the reverse way.
