I create a plugin installer as Name.rhi and it runs. It puts the plugin directory under “C:\Program Files\Common Files\McNeel\Rhinoceros\6.0\Plug-ins”. When I open Rhino, a window pops up saying
Loading - Name.rhp
then
Error loading - Name.rhp
No other info…
If I then use the PlugInManager and install it by navigating to the above directory and selecting the rhp file, then everything works fine. So I know I’m building the library correctly, but maybe I’m doing something wrong with the installer.
Following this guide, I place the rhp and the accompanying dll in a folder structure as follows:
Name/
├── Rhino 6/
│ ├── Name.rhp
│ └── NameLib.dll
Then I zip the Name directory and rename it from Name.zip to Name.rhi.
