Hi Gang...
 
This is once again eluding me...
Once upon a time I managed to add some dx plugins to CD Architect, but for the life of me I can't seem to do so again...
 
The plugin selecvtor show a folder system of Audio/shared plugins etc, but I can't locate this folder on my computer even in appdata/roaming... and I see no method in the plugin shooser itself.
 
Anyone out there still using this relic? I would appreciate any ideas...
 
Thanks!

Keni,
 
Try,
 
Local Disk C: > Program Files (x86) > Sony >Shared Plug-Ins > Audio
 
If you don't see it there, then try, 
Local Disk C: > Program Files (x86) > Sony >CD Archotech 5.2 > FileIO Plug-Ins
 
The plug ins may be located there.

Yes, i have both of those locations. The first has 3 dll's
Sfpack1
Sfpack2
Sfpack3

The second lication seems to have discrete folders for a number of somewhat cryptic names.

None of these ring a bell for me and if I go to load a plugin, my liet contains some i obviously must have added, but they're not in these folders?

Am i correct that CD Architecht only supports 32bit dx plugins?

Do you know? If I place a copy of a registered dx, need i register the new copy as well?

Old program.... a bit archaic, yes?

32bit DX plug-ins only run in 32bit hosts and 64bit DX plug-in only run in 64bit hosts. CDA is a 32bit host. Part of the process of registering a DX plug-in writes the path to the plug-in in the registry. 32 and 64bit DX plug-ins use different part of the registry. As a result, the actual location of a plug-in does not matter, The host will find its plug-ins based on the registered paths.
