V4.3 vortex isn't loading

Post by kat »

Hello, I was using vortex with version 4.2 but I can't get it to load on version 4.3. I copied the libsimExtVortex.so library to the main coppeliasim folder but I have this error on startup:
Could not find function simCreatePrimitiveShape
simExtVortex: error: could not find all required functions in the CoppeliaSim library. Cannot start the plugin.
[CoppeliaSim:error] plugin 'Vortex': load failed (failed initialization).
Do you know how I should fix it?
thanks,

coppelia

Hello,

plugins from one CoppeliaSim version are not always compatible with another CoppeliaSim version. This is the case with the physics plugins. Why don't you take the Vortex plugin from the exact same release? (usually located in the vortexPlugin folder, since not enabled by default)

Cheers
