Zugg Software :: View topic - New plugins according to tutorial not loading in Cmud

First off, I know plugins are not yet supported. This is more aimed at that somewhere it was stated that although plugins ain't supported yet, that if you change all callings to zmudapi to cmudapi and make use of cmud library, it should be able to use certain plugins.

Being interested in seeing if I could write some plugins, I followed the tutorial for zmud, and wrote a zmud plugin exactly like that. It managed to load (although I'm still struggling to actually make it do stuff ;) ), and is basically a "skeletal-plugin".

Now, to check if this works in cmud, I made it exactly the same. But instead of using the zmud library, I used the cmud library and did everything else exactly the same as I did when writing the zmud plugin (only referencing cmud whenever required instead of zmud).

When I try to load THIS skeletal plugin into Cmud, it always gives a message of it being a faulty plugin. Making me believe that either I messed up (very much possible) or cmud isn't even able to load any form of plugin, contrary to what was said.

Again, let me close with that I know that plugins are not supported yet. This is more a partly request to see if anyone else tried write a plugin for cmud and ran into the same problem?

Thanks in advance

CMUD will not load plugins yet. What I was talking about with changing zmud to cmud was for external EXE files that simply use the CMUD COM interface. Those external EXE files will work after changing zmud to cmud. But if you are trying to create a DLL plugin that CMUD needs to load, that won't work right now.
