i.e.: Put the .DLL in the same folder as MervBot.exe.

Are you using the MERVBot_Debug.exe? If so, does that say anything additional?

You have problems loading a dll into MERVBot.
Who else can see a reason to put it in 'Bot Questions'?

If you are sure that the .dll file is in the same directory as the MERVBot's active path and you're still experiencing these problems I'd think the .dll is an invalid file type, but most likely an outdated plugin.
This is from the default source of MERVBot plugins, spawn.cpp:
Code: Show/Hide if (major > CORE_MAJOR_VERSION)
{ tell(makeEcho("DLL plugin cannot connect. This plugin is out of date.")); CONNECTION_DENIED = true; return; } else if ((major < CORE_MAJOR_VERSION) || (minor < CORE_MINOR_VERSION)) { tell(makeEcho("DLL plugin cannot connect. This plugin requires the latest version of MERVBot.")); CONNECTION_DENIED = true; return; } else tell(makeEcho("DLL plugin connected.")); |
In the MERVBot terminal you might be able to see one of these messages.
Notice: You need Misc:NoTerminal=0 in MERVBOT.INI to be able to see these debug messages.
I'm expecting you'll get one of those two error messages.
Please say so if this is what's happening, there might be a way to fix it by downgrading your MERVBot's core version.
Which core version are you currently using and what's the exact URL to the plugin archive (.zip)?

No, just not enough time to do that.

Yes.
Stop being impatient then.
As if it takes hours to open MERVBOT.INI with a text editor, turn the console on, save the file and restart the bot.
Check if you see any error message while trying to load, if so, take appropriate measurements.
I gave you a good, and most likely the actual, reason for why it didn't work.
I even included a way for you to fix it.
Hm, if you keep giving up this quickly, you won't get much other things to work either.

That all has nothing to do with a simple thing taking less time than making the post you just made.
I'm not asking for excuses, I did my job: trying to help you fixing your problem.
