Unable to load AddIn

Anonymous — Thu, 03 Aug 2023 11:21:42 GMT

I've some problems with loading AddIns.
If I compile a API Example (plan_dump) with the DEMO Keys and try to load it in german DEMO Version I get an error:
"Das Add-On kann nicht freigeschalten werden. Bitte kontaktieren Sie Ihren Distributor."
english: "Unable to activate AddOn..."

As I read in documentation, this can be caused by the MDID
- I use the DEMO Keys with german DEMO?
Or dependencies
- The apx file has a dependency to MSVCR80D.DLL may this cause problems?
Can I obtain detaild information why loading failed?

Some ideas?
Thanks marc

Additionally I applicate for developer programm to get my own MDID.

API Dev. Kit 13.2517
ArchiCAD DEMO german 13.0.0 Build 3000
VS 2005

I have the same problem with Russian demo version of ArchiCAD 13. It says "Нельзя проверить достоверность этого расширения. Обратитесь, пожалуйста, к дистрибьютору."

One should distinguish the demo version of the trial version. They are not the same. When I deleted file "trial.lic", ArchiCad run in demo mode and add-on started up.
