[PROGRAM] X Plugin Manager : V1.87 : 2024-01-06

[Metamartian]

i ignored the spk update errors and then ignored the plugin errors.

The plugin is now at 1.41 and appears to be working ok but the spk update has not worked and I have tried it a few times now. It is still at 1.83.

[Cycrow]

have u tried updating it manually ?

have u tried updating it manually ?

Just tried that. Got the same error with and without access rights.

grr.

EDIT: tried an alternative. went into my system32 and cut/pasted the existing spk.dll (10/01/2012) onto my desktop then ran the downloaded exe and it is now sorted

EDIT 2: oh ffs. now I can not delete the old spk.dll from my desktop. Anybody got a lumphammer?

EDIT 3: Yeah the reboot worked, cheers

[Cycrow]

have u tried a reboot and see if windows clears any lock it might have randomly put on the file ?

that usually works for me.

Hi Cycrow,

Right now I am playing X2.. One issue I have having is that when I install scripts from archives it is not installing the T dir files. Script files seem to install ok though. I am installing to a STEAM version of the game so not sure if that makes a difference. I have both hard copy and a steam version because I wanted the Superbox but was not able to get the hardcopy of that..

Second question, When I run X2, X3 my G15 keyboard displays the name of the game playing then searches for a game name or something?! No matter what I run it always says 'no game found'. What am I missing here?

BTW, utilizing the G15 is great! I wish more programs did!

[Cycrow]

i've not made the G15 addon work with X2 yet, it only works with X3R, TC and AP right now.

i'll need to create the export scripts at some point for X2 for it to work

I have downloaded both X3TC and AP through steam. Both are active as I can play each but both the exe files are in X3 Terran Conflict dir. When I install and then run Plugin Manager and select a new directory and click on X3AP Plugin Manager shows it as X3TC 3.1.1 and then I install (with PM) the spk files they don`t show up when playing X3AP. Thereshallbewings is a name I won`t forget, any ideas please.

[Cycrow]

Hi,

Big fan of your programme but i do have an issue...

Using the lates stable version of your plugin manager more specificly the Package Creator i have tried on several occasions to import vanilla game ships into the ship creator but always fails, i dont get any error message other than it failing, can you help.

Running:
3.1.1
X3TC
Seporate directory
1.40 Plugin manager

[Seraph Kaoru]

Just wanted to post and say - got the latest version last night, and you totally fixed the issue I talked about before! ('Suppress this message' not suppressing.)

Thanks, Cycrow! It's always awesome to see a diligent and helpful community dev like you.

I Can't use the plugin manager it says it installs fine and then when i run it it just brings up windows explorer. What is it supposed to do?

sounds like it cant find any games, the explorer window should say to select a game exe

[Eoin Bastian]

oh duh i have to find the game... thanks. so obvious now, i thought it was supposed to start the manager and then you find the game.

[Cycrow]

usually it'll auto detect the games you have installed.
so that window only displays if it cant find anything

hi Cycrow,

The latest version of the plug-in manager does not seem to be installing spk's correctly. Although the scripts are installed, it is not installing the T files. Every spk I have tried to install for X2 or for X3 Reunion comes up with readtext errors. If I open the spk file and manually copy the T dir files over the readtext error goes away...

I have not tried the new version with TC or Albion yet but I assume if there was a problem there as well, someone would report it?!

Any suggestions or needed info?

[Cycrow]

are the t files missing after installing, or just not being loaded ?

also, you could check the file log after installing and see what it says

T files are missing.. not being installed into the T directory...

Which log file or where is the log file you want me to check?

[StarCrack]

PM 1.41 not detecting AP 1.1 only TC 3.2
i'm selecting the x3ap.exe not the x3tc.exe when adding new game directory
but it's installing the scripts to the main TC scripts\types folder not AP's addon scripts\types folder.
