C-Hook problem

[Todd84]

I just upgraded to X2 MR2 SP1. I get the chook error when MC starts up. I used some chooks ok, but when I tried findoverlap.dll I get Incompatible C-Hooks internal version number. Recompile and relink the C-hook.

 

How do I fix this most of the models I get aren't clean and I need this C-hook the most. Is there a quick fix besides A new install? I really don't want to have to come in tomorrow

Just to get you going, you could try adding the chook to a toolbar. I've had some chooks work from a toolbar and not from Alt+C.

 

Also, make sure your data paths are pointing to the new install chooks folder.

Todd84,

If you're getting a "incompatible internal version number" it sounds like it's trying to run an earlier version of that C-Hook.

Use Alt-C and browse to the X2 MR2 Chook subfolder to make sure you're running what you're supposed to be running.

I did the update and backup when I installed X2 MR2. I don't know if that is part of the problem? I just pulled the c-hook out of my old version X I keep on a different drive and it worked in X2 MR2. I don't know why? I tried 80% of my chooks that were in X2 MR2 and Findoverlap.dll was the only one that didn't work Anyways it works now!

Its hit or miss with which old c-hooks work with the new version. Some of mine do, some don't. I couldn't live without findoverlap either. Some designers are horrible @ part drawing
