I have dragged and dragged, dropped and dropped,
and I can't get any plug-ins to start up...

Yes, I am using 1.2.0b6.

What's the problem?

What happens? does Ares light up when you drag the plug onto it? Try downloading Ares again.

The Ares icon doesn't do anything when I drag the plug onto it. The plug icon just ends up on top of Ares. i thought about downloading again, but I wanted to see if there was something else i could do first. I don't have the speediest connection in the world.

Any other ideas?

Are you sure it's the actual plug, or could it be the plug's folder?

I've done that several times, all with your plug Posted Image

If it isn't that, I'm stumped.

double click on the plugin itself, if it opens up with hera, then save as optimised. If not it should run fine.

just take my post, and imagine everything is speeled right.

Thank you kind people very much. I ended up downloading 1.2.0b6 again, and the plugs work fine...

Now the source of my frustration is the fact that all of the plugs I downloaded seem to have a nearly impossible mission a few missions in. But that's my own problem.

thanks again.
