FARR v2.104.02 - Plugins don't load [Windows 7/64bit]
« on: March 06, 2012, 10:56 PM »
Tested on the Archive and the Installer version of FARR.

Version v2.104.02 was grabbed through FARR's updater.
Plugins located in the Plugin folder in the FARR Directory are not loaded.
Refreshing the plugins do not result in the plugins being recognized.

Those plugins that seem to be there in the default installation are not really there -- those are just empty placeholders.  You have to install the plugins you want before they will actually appear inside FARR.  I know it's a bit confusing.

You can install plugins using the DcUpdater tool or from the FARR plugins section.

This really seems to confuse people. If I remember correctly, those folders are placeholders needed by DcUpdater, right? Is there another way of configuring DcUpdater, at least for installation of new plugins?
It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious.
