Staredit Network -> SCMDraft -> Proper Installation & Startup
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Staredit.Net Essence on 2005-12-15 at 22:35:05
I used an old version of SCM Draft long ago and it was great!, except that all my upgrade and special ability settings changed to some SCM Draft default value when i loaded the map.

I stopped using it and then all these pre-releases came out. I downloaded the latest pre-release and unzipped it to a new folder and ran the executable. I selected the default profile and clicked "OK". It said "Error loading plugin, SCM Draft will now exit" and it exited. ohmy.gif I restarted it and clicked "Edit" for the default profile. I specified the Starcraft directory and clicked "Apply Settings" and "Save Settings" and returned to the main screen. I selected the default profile and clicked "OK" and again it said "Error loading plugin, SCM Draft will now exit" and it exited. Do I need to place each file in a specific location before running? I don't understand exactly how to get started using this new version.

Please help! cry.gif

Extract the /plugins folder from the .zip along with the SCMD2 executable (meaning, extract EVERYTHING from the .zip).

If I had a nickel for every time somebody mentioned this "problem"... tongue.gif

I had copied everything from the zip to the folder before, and the program didn't run, but I didn't see a /plugins folder in the zip. However, when i used your advice and clicked the extract button and did it all again, voila, a plugins folder was extracted too (even though I still don't see it in the zip file confused.gif). Anyways, I ran the program again and it worked, so thanks! biggrin.gif
