Well of course. Running FL as an adminstrator fixed it! (why the heck did i not have admin in the first place, silly me) Goes to show that the simplest answers are usually the ones that work

Thanks a ton for helping me out even when i was in a full on panic mode!

“Version 2.14 32-bit Standalone works fine? But 2.14 32-bit in FL doesn’t? And you’ve confirmed that both interfaces show 2.14 (32-bit) so you know it is the same .dll being addressed?” <– That is all correct.

And i did some research on forums and found out that by removing a database file in C:ProgramDataToontrackEZdrummerDatabase2_@EZDRUMMER_2_MODERN#VINTAGE i can cause similar database error that happens in the plugin, to happen in the standalone version. So that might indicate the plugin cant read that file somehow?

EDIT: also the there is this error log i attached

Both standalone and the VST show the version to be 2.1.4 (build13108). The sound libraries show version 1.0.2.
I have only had the 32-bit version installed since im on a 32-bit system ( ) so i did not install 64-bit on either of the re-installs.

And one point i failed to mention is that my C: drive is just a small SSD for the operating system and i have to choose the install location to be on D: so i guess that can not be called a completely fresh install afterall. Thats propably also the issue here so my bad on that part. BUT, its seems choosing the files to go D: still makes some files to go to C? Atleast now going right-clicking a drum -> kits -> manage in explorer shows direction of C:UsersTimoDocumentsToontrackEZdrummerPresetsEZXEZX2_EZdrummer2_ModernDrumKitPresets_EZ2 and that direction shows as empty to me. Then again i do find MIDI files and some graphic files at C:Program Files (x86)Common FilesToontrack which is not where i wanted anything to go on the install. There i also find the soundb0.obv for the packs i own, which i propably could have shown to the VST when it asked to locate sound files?

So yes, the issue seems to be my potato computer with too small C: drive and me being stupid but somehow it still worked with no problems till yesterday.

EDIT: I did one more re-install and got everything to go to D:UserEZDrummer and still no luck. Im starting to run out of ideas. But since the standalone works it might be on FL Studio end somehow.
EDIT2: Can’t seem to find anything wrong with FL Studio either..

Hi

Yes, i did move the .dll the same day i installed ezdrummer about a year ago. Have not touched any of the files since and it as been working perfectly. And i did delete all ezdrummer.dll files before re installing so it should not matter i guess?

After the second fresh install of ezdrummer today the plugin asked me to locate the sound files and i tried to do so, but could not find them? So now i would like to know what file types the sound libraries are and where can i find them in my pc after a completely fresh install?

What also bugs me is that the plugin only asked to locate the files once and now its back to the same old loop of databaserror-> please update -> you are using the latest version. So it would be nice to know if i can get it to locate files without re-installing again.

Thanks for the quick response by the way!
