Did a little searching and didn't find anything. Anyone know how to go about updating a plugin from like 0.3a or so to 0.3e? Or perhaps just a link to a How-to?

If you are having a problem with any of the above, their incompatibility is not the issue.

4 char.

It's not one of those main plugins unfortunately... I'm pretty sure it does need updated.

Replace the old .dll/.so file with the new one. You may also need to re-compile scripts that use the include file.

[The DeLuca]

I mean updating the source file and compiling a new .dll. The old .dll is outdated and causes the server to crash once I try running it.

Well i think any plugins should be updated when a new client version comes out. The addresses might change, and the plugin won't run (e.g CNPC, YSF etc..)

[The DeLuca]

It's still none of those. So how exactly do I obtain the new addresses to make sure it all works flawlessly. I'm fairly new to C++ and what not.

It depends on what are you looking for and by the way, you did not mention the plugin you are having problems with.

[The DeLuca]

It's an old, old, plugin I had one of my C++ coders do when I ran an early 0.3 server. It's a NPC plugin that writes to the recording file to create dynamic bots. Sort of like RNPC, however it's quite different. And I have no clue how to update it. It just makes the server crash when I try to load it.

No RNPC is a different structured plugin.

Alrighty, thanks ****** that helped.
