Difficulty in building and installing dll files

Nilay Majumder · Post by **Nilay Majumder** » Mon Oct 25, 2021 11:20 pm

I have been trying to install a user plugin ReflexContoller.dll which is mentioned in https://github.com/msdemers/opensim-reflex-controllers. I have almost completed the whole steps but when I start to build the file in Visual Studio, the following messages appear. I am not able to understand why is the installation failing.

Code: Select all
