Loadplugin not working

[Floatingshed]

I'm just installing avisynth etc. on a new PC.
All is well except any plugin that is not in the avisynth plugins directory won't load. Usually i explicitly load the plugin that I require by using Loadplugin and the full path. On new PC this gives a "cannot load plugin, install missing library?" error. The same plugin in the standard directory loads fine.

Very frustrating. Any ideas please?

How about trying to load plugin that does not require external library, still a problem ?
Pretty much any of my plugs are static linked and require no externals.

You might also like to disclose Avisynth version and OS in use (32/64bit), and just for luck do a reboot.

EDIT: Take a look here, dont know if any use:- http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=166492
Think maybe "cannot load plugin, install missing library?" replaces the "0x7E" error message on recent versions Avisynth.
You might also want to try Groucho2004 AvisInfo to see if it shows anything interesting.

Missing Visual C++ Runtimes, perhaps?

see this

The same plugin in the standard directory loads fine.

Would not work at all if runtimes missing.

Does Avisynth support non-ANSI characters in file paths? I am pretty sure they are not supported in scripts.

In desperation I re-installed the C++ runtimes and the problem has gone away! Weird.
Thanks to those who scratched their heads for me...
