Problem - mq2nav not loaded

[mroutlaw]

not found , i restarted downloaded clean mq2 used redguides install yet still it wont find the mq2nav to load , its in the directory i right clicked and it says unknown app to open so not sure about that or if it should even say uses macroquest to open just drawing blank.

 

[minniemmee24]

did you update it after the clean install?

 

[mroutlaw]

yep

/plugin mq2nav

="plugin not found"?

Can you load other plugins from the directory like that or are they all giving an error?

 

[mroutlaw]

other plugs seem to be loading fine

- - - Updated - - -

tried deleting the release folder and downloading advanced, made sure nothing was blocked installed and still cant run mq2nav says fails to load , if i try unload says not found, all others seem fine

MQ2Nav

---

MQ2Nav is not wanting to load, even tried a fresh install of the compile.

- [2017/11/29 14:46:14] MQ2PluginMan::Unable to load 'MQ2Nav'.
- [2017/11/29 14:46:37] MQ2PluginMan::MQ2Nav isn't loaded!
- [2017/11/29 14:46:57] Plugin 'MQ2Nav' could not be loaded.

Tried both ways, PM window and manually.

Any ideas?

Sounds like a DX issue perhaps?

i tried but windows 10 wont run it i will see if i can find a different version to run that will run on windows 10 pro
i checked the file he includes for dx9 is on my system 32 i have direct x 12

- - - Updated - - -

so far it only worked once when maskoi told me to do admin , but after that it went back to cant be found or will not load i have tried as admin on eq and mq i tried taking ownership of mq2nav just in case , i tried compatability for windows 7 and 8 im stumped and why is it only this plug in?

- - - Updated - - -

still no luck on this, cant figure out why mq2nav is having a issue when other plugin s are just fine ,

5/6 of PCs load MQ2nav fine, 6th PC refuses to load it.

Download here:
Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - DirectX Redist (June 2010)

Note - This is a two step process. The installer download unpacks files to a location of your choice.
You then open the folder and find the DXSETP.exe and run that to reinstall DirectX.
Once the reinstall is complete you can delete the folder the files were unpacked to.

I knew there was a reason we kept Maskoi around....

 

[mroutlaw]

After upgrading to a new computer, I was about to punch a hole in the wall since mq2nav simply wouldn't load. Stumbled across this post, and YES, DirectX saved the day!
