Title: Plugin only works on my computer?
Post by: Gregjazz on Sat 02/12/2006 01:51:30
Hey guys,

So I wrote a plugin and it works great on my computer. But on the two other computers it was tested on, the compiled game came up with a "Unable to load plugin 'whatever.dll'"

Any idea as to why this may be?

Make sure that you've copied it in the right spot (same folder as the AGS executable).

Did you use any dependent DLLs? If you did, those must be available in the path on every computer where your plugin is used.

It's in the same directory all right, and the game is being run from the harddisk, not from inside the ZIP file (I know that's an issue brought up from before).

What do you mean by dependent DLLs?

EDIT: Okay, I see what you mean, and that looks like why it's not working. How do I know which DLLs (or other things) I need to attach in order for it to work on other systems?

EDIT EDIT: Never mind about all this, I figured it out and now it works. Yup, you were right Traveler, thanks for heading me in the right direction!
