Righto, it seems that there's an issue with at lease one plugin running on windows 8. This thread should be used to post proven issues which occur when a plugin fails to run on windows 8.
If you have an issue with with a plugin running on Windows 8, please post a description of the issue, the error message which occurs, (If possible) and a sample of code which demonstrates the problem.
I'll start with the first issue.
Advanced Terrain.
The following sample will fail to run on a windows 8 system. The program compiles, but will not execute.
set display mode 800, 600, 32
sync on: sync rate 0: sync ` fast machines may need to cap this
`v = make vector4( 1 )
` ** make terrain
nTiles = 8 : xscale#=3: yscale#=0.6: zscale#=3
make object terrain 1 ` create the terrain object
set terrain heightmap 1, "terrain.png" ` set the heightmap
set terrain scale 1, xscale#, yscale#, zscale# ` set the scale
set terrain split 1, nTiles ` split value by nTiles x nTiles
set terrain tiling 1, 16 ` detail map tiling
build terrain 1 ` finally build the terrain
Do
Sync
Loop
With the vector command commented out, The program will run but will produce the error: "Failed to load DLL (3: AdvancedTerrain.dll)"
With the vector command active, the program will not run at all.
