BUG: Unable to load ANY plugin

MacroFiend · Post by **MacroFiend** » Sat Nov 22, 2003 11:30 pm

When MQ2 is installed in to a folder with a . somewhere in the path, the plugin handler isn't able to load any plugins.

For example, I have a MacroQuest2.CVS folder where I keep an unaltered copy of the anon CVS. If I try to run MQ2 from that release folder, the injector launches fine, reads the INI and will inject MQ2Main.dll fine.

Unfortunately, when in game, you can't see ANY MQ2 text because all of the output handlers are in external plugins which MQ2Main isn't able to load. The only reason I knew MQ2 was loading was the DebugSpew.

that's pretty odd... and all the plugins are in the same directory i presume. put some debug spew in and make sure LoadMQ2Plugin is getting the right full path? I imagine it is, but I have no idea why a . in the path would stop LoadLibrary from working

All plugins in the same folder. I ended up renaming the folder to be - instead of . and it worked. When I used "FullFileName" in the debugspew instead of "FileName", it tried to load the plugin w/o ".dll" on the end. Not sure if that is normal or not though.

Yes that's normal

Can I just say, having a . in a folder name is an abomination to god.
