Problems getting started with plugins

[swisslizard]

Hi

I got some problems getting started with plugins.

Havent got a clue yet whats going wrong?

As a first step I have installed the function logger plugin, enabled it in the plugin manger and started pinballx. However after I exit Pinballx I cant find any log file or anything similar regarding the function calls.

The log file of PBX also doesnt contain any information regarding plugins apart from a line saying plugins loaded.

I'm running Pinballx in XP 32bit.

Any hints?

Thanks and best regards

Are you looking in the "plugins/function logger" folder? Did you check the PinballX.log to see if the plugin fails to initialize?

There may be a bug if I didn't update the plugin to use the new variables. I can look into this after work.

Ok, finnaly The Function Logger plugin is working

I had somehow manage to f...up the config file of PBX. After I deleted the ini and redid the configs everything worked as expected.

Even better, my first experiments building my own plugin have been successful as well. I guess I'll convert the plugin template to C# next, since I feel more comfortable with it.

hmmm swisslizard what do you have in mind?

tell me if you need something to be added in the configtool

There should be a c# template in the plugins folder already.

@Adultery:

At least in my install the is no c# template, but nevermind I just got my first C# plugin working
