hi

i have a problem with pugins
in game when i try to load plugins on my server it just comes up with plug in load failed and when it doesnt come up with any reply from the server and in my config i try to load a plugin, the directory was right because it is the same diretory as everything else i tried everythin but it wont work it is with everyplugin

Wow, can you try to use some punctuation? I see a single comma in that whole thing, and you didn't even capitalize stuff. At least try to use proper English.

Anyways, if you want help, provide us with more details. We can't help you if you just give vague descriptions. Run the server with -dddd and try loading the plugin (with no other configuration except the -dddd and the -loadplugin). It should output why it failed to load.

If you're running linux the most common error is that people forget to build bzfs with plugins enabled.

Ok,
I am running windows 7,
I can't load olivine because it just comes up with not found on the .bat file and plug in load failed,
I can't use /unloadplugin because it doesn't come up with any reply from the server when I tell it to unload a plugin
I an running the latest version of bzflag,
I've tried everything including what you said blast.

it just comes up with not found

That means it can't find the file. You probably misspelled the path, or you pointed it to the wrong location.
Actually read the error messages. They do mean something, you know. (Or not, apparently.)

When put
-loadplugin "C:\Program Files\BZ\killall.dll". this Works
-loadplugin "C:\Program Files\BZ\airspawn.dll". this Works
-loadplugin "C:\Program Files\BZ\playHistoryTracker.dll". this Works
But whenever I use a fourth -loadplugin command it doesn't work for anyplugin

Also I cannot loadplugins in games using /loadplugin because it just says pluginload failed and I can't use /unloadplugin because itdoesnt send a reply from the server like "Plugin Unloaded"

All the directories are the same for the 4 olivine but the fourth one doesn't work no matter which plugin I load

Post your entire config file (minus your password).

You need a " at the end of those.

just tried it and it doesnt work i am sure the plugin is that folder

Correction: i am sure the plugin is in that folder

its weird i can load any plugins except ones i download from the BZBB

also i cannot load or unloadplugins in game

Is it because they are too big Fair4CTF is 116KB big

most plugins from here are only source so you need to compile them for your system.
most precompiled plugins are either for linux or macosx.

and even if its megabytes large it should still run.

it says that they are already compiled because they come just as .ddl, should i try puting it in a destatation what need no speech marks?

and i can never loadplugins in game

Why are you trying to host a server on Windows anyway? You do realize it will not work well for a public server, right?

Also, do not post several times in a row. Wait to post and include everything in your post, or use the Edit button.

why wont windows work proporly?
its online atm, seems fine

Most servers are linux so that is where the testing happens.

Uhhh.... Your map doesn't have 4 teams. I was just there. You only have 2.... Fair4CTF won't work unless you have 4 teams...

Version 2.0.x bzfs has more issues working properly on Windows because of how the network code was. You will encounter more issues than if you were to run it on a Linux server.

Yeh i tried to load proximity mine aswell but it didn't work so I'm giving up on that ( thanks for noticing the fair4ctf thing Scythio I didn't even notice that). *slap myself*
