[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	I am trying to make an installer for a plugin that will register on Vista and Win7 machines. Old method: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Decal\Plugins\{273c725a-6f49-4ba9-866e-32c220f981a0}] "ZappyLog" "Assembly"="ZappyLog.dll" "Enabled" = "1" "Object"="ZappyLog.PluginCore" "Path"="C:\\Games\\ZappyLogger\\" "Surrogate"="{71A69713-6593-47EC-0002-0000000DECA1}" New method? -----signature----- (none)

	Make sure you have a blank (will display as (Default) string key that is the name of the plugin as you want it to appear in decal. I don't think that would cause a failing issue, though. Perhaps try a single \ instead of your double? Here are mine: (Default) REG_SZ plugin game Assembly REG_SZ dll name Enabled REG_DWORD 1 Object REG_SZ Namespace.Class (e.g., RareTracker.PluginCore) Order REG_SZ blah Path REG_SZ path to Assembly Surrogate REG_SZ {71A69713-6593-47EC-0002-0000000DECA1} -----signature----- We are like dwarfs sitting on the shoulders of giants.

	So far #acdev folks have helped me to figure out it is a "user permissions or wtfever windows is calling their permissions this version" type issue. I think if I make an installer and the installer is run as administrator, then it should register as the same file normally did in previous versions of Windows. -----signature----- (none)
