Detect Plugin load failures

[stevo.zilik]

Hi,

is there any logs that describe what plugins is rFactor 2 trying to load (say on start of dedicated server), and logs any failures?

My plugin is not loading on a specific setup and it's difficult to track down why.

Thanks,
Stevo

On build 1008 you can go to the Options screen, there is a new "Plugins" tab, you will see which plugins have been loaded and/or which are turned on/off.
Otherwise, you can start rF2 with "+trace=10" option (this is done through the launcher, "cog" icon, in the "Command line interface parameters").
A log file will be produced in the Log folder, and a trace of plugins being loaded will be there.

Seems I have a similar problem: my plugin is loading fine on one computer, and rejected on the other (same Windows and rF2 versions). Trace 10 is quite concise: Could not load plugin. Any way to get more information?

Found the reason, finally: I use VS2015 now, and even the small plugin needs vcredist2015 installed to work.
