Windows Vista and Plug-Ins
« on: February 04, 2008, 01:03:20 am »
I can't seem to get the plug-ins to work in Vista.  The main program is running in XP compatibility mode, but when I configure to the plug-ins, everything gets stuck with a blank DOS window.

Does anyone have any ideas here?

I don't have any problems with vista and plugins...
i run anim8or with windows XP compatability and the 'run program as administrator' checked off.
maybe Vista won't let anim8or access dos without administrator access.

Anim8or runs if the plug-in scripts are not activated/accessible. Works the same way with or without the Administrator box checked.

Anim8or doesn't work on my computer until it wants to, and then when it does work, in at least 2 hours an error message pops up saying anim8or has stopped working. I've tried the XP compatibility mode and i didn't get any better results. There was an option to get a driver for an8 but where can i get that from?
