I'm having trouble with this plugin:
http://avisynth.nl/index.php/Spinner
http://www.avisynth.nl/users/vcmohan/movePlus/movePlus.7z

I'm trying to use the "turn" function. The x86 version works fine, the x64 one doesn't.

colorbars
turn(angle=45.0)
"There is no function named 'turn'."

Also,
loadplugin("movePlus.dll")
colorbars
turn(angle=45.0)
Cannot load file '...'.
Platform returned code 126:
The specified module could not be found.

Loading the same script using 32-bit software returns the expected "Cannot load a 64 bit DLL in 32 bit Avisynth", so the path is correct.

The exact same x64 DLL works in another computer using the exact same Avisynth+ version on the same Windows 10 with the same Visual Studio C++ stuff installed.

Avisynth version is 3.4 r2923 (but had the same problem using r2772 as well).

Put the movePlus plugin into your 64 bit auto-load directory and run this tool:

Avs 2.6 x64 CPP plugin, req msvcr120.dll from VS 2013, CPP runtimes.

MS Official page:- https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads

CPP runtimes AIO (All in one) on github (Smaller and less bloated than official):- https://github.com/abbodi1406/vcredist/releases

[If you are missing the runtimes, run Grouchy tool]

EDIT: Oops, forgot the AIO link, fixed.

It's there under 2.6 plugins, pretending there's no problem.

Also I see some unnecessary warnings about a missing libfft file that I already have. It's in the "wrong place", but it's working fine.

Well would you look at that, it worked. Thanks! Weird part is, these two computers had a completely identical list of those installed, now this one has a few more.

Actually, I recently had problem with VS CPP 2013 runtimes on XP64, reinstall/uninstall were both failing for vs2013 runtimes (official install exe, and Control Panel uninstall).
(think problem was to do with some certificate or something, maybe certificate expired or similar)
[EDIT: So I was left with a system that had a sort of half installed vs2013 runtimes, ie broken]

I tried the github AIO installer (linked previously), and it solved the problems and installed correctly [official MS installer just point blank refused install].

EDIT: Actually, I extracted the AIO installer[EDIT: 7zip] , and just ran the 2013 installer part, not the Install all runtimes .bat thingy.

I think there were actually 4 installers, for

x86 install vs 2013 basic(or some other similar word)
x86 install vs 2013 additional(or some other similar word)

x64 install vs 2013 basic(or some other similar word)
x64 install vs 2013 additional(or some other similar word)

EDIT:
The VS2013 runtimes would also solve this problem

I'm aware of just two ways to load the fftw DLLs:

Load them implicitly by placing them in System32 and/or SysWoW64 (or another directory that is reachable through the standard Windows search hierarchy)
Load them explicitly through tsp's 'LoadDLL' helper plugin.

Functions within plugins that use the fftw DLLs will fail if neither of the above methods is used.

Avs+ passes LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH to LoadLibraryEx (https://github.com/pinterf/AviSynthPlus/blob/b8fc314b76a9f0cbdc5fa118bcb8f0feb7ba6f82/avs_core/core/PluginManager.cpp#L754), which means the dependency search will start in the folder the loaded module is in (that is, the plugins folder). Putting libfftw3.dll in the plugins dir is thus fine.

hLib = LoadLibrary("libfftw3f-3.dll");

Anyway, I tested this and AVS+ does not change what I stated above.

No, it still can, but it depends on where in the plugin the call to LoadLibrary is done. Avs+ calls SetDllDirectory() with the plugins folder as the argument before loading, but then restores the search path after plugin init is done. So if the plugin calls LoadLibrary in AvisynthPluginInit it'll still work.

So if the plugin calls LoadLibrary in AvisynthPluginInit it'll still work.Fair enough but the LoadLibrary call is usually in the constructor of the plugin (dfttest, fft3dfilter).

All plugins I have that need libfft work fine with having it in the plugins folder.Maybe you have your auto-load directory referenced in the PATH environment variable. If not, consider filling out an application for the Hogwarts School Of Wizardry. :D
