Title: Vamp Plugins not Showing up on upgrade
Post by: lightfreak on May 26, 2017, 02:23:05 PM

I just upgraded to the newest version of Xlights as a new install, computer is running Windows 10. The last time I ran a version of Xlights was 2014, had to take a two year break from my display shows.  I installed the newest version and when I go to start a new sequence and use the wizard and when I go to the timing tabs none of the Vamp options  are not there. Am I doing something wrong or do I have remnants of a older program still in the background taking over.  I also have a folder with the Vamp downloads I downloaded a few years ago. Also I am running the 64 bit version.

Thank you in Advance

There are installers for QM Vamp on the Downloads page: https://xlights.org/releases/

There is an issue if you don't install xLights in the default installation path.

Just added the Vamp 64 bit files and all is working well. Thank you very much and have a great weekend.

Hi, i'm having a similar issue doing a fresh install of xLights 64 2017.19 and Vamp 64 from xlights.org. I install both as admin on a win 10 desktop, and accept the default directories. The plugins do not show up in the timing window. Please advise.

Note that i upgraded from a late xlights 4 version and uninstalled it and the plugins prior to this upgrade.

Did you install the Microsoft runtimes.
