You'd see that in the source of a plugin, which is a little irrelevant.

It's about the error messages:
"DLL plugin cannot connect. This plugin is out of date." and
"DLL plugin cannot connect. This plugin requires the latest version of MERVBot.".
One of these messages might show up in the console, after trying to load a plugin.

Just follow these steps before running the MERVBot:

1. Open MERVBOT.INI in a text editor.

2. Go to the [Misc] section in that file and see if
"NoTerminal=0".
If it isn't, make sure it is.

3. Save and close the .INI file.

4. Start the MERVBot.exe, a black window shows up. This is what we'll call the "console".

5. Try to load your plugin, and see if any of these messages shows up in the "console":
"DLL plugin cannot connect. This plugin is out of date.",
"DLL plugin cannot connect. This plugin requires the latest version of MERVBot." or
"DLL plugin connected.".

6. Tell us here which of those messages showed up in the console.

---

By doing this you'd be able to determine what's going wrong when you're trying to load the plugin.

Other reasons LoadLibrary() would fail:

- dll does not exist, misspelled filename
- dll is not a valid dll

Other reasons MERV wouldn't like the module:

- missing export(s)
- improper registration/protocol (just guessing here)

When I had my first own computer, that was the way to fix all problems.

Yeah Ekted, but this must be a version conflict.
