Hello again

I have a DLL File and I want to use require:

For instance: The dll file is called "example.dll":



I am placing the code in the global.lua file in the GameLoopInit function:


Gameguru tells me that the file could not be found:


I have placed the dll file in almost all directories:
Game Guru Main Directory
Game Guru\Files
Game Guru\Files\scriptbank

Guys can you please help me?
Thanks in advance

DLL has nothing to do with global.lua and/or GameLoopInit function.
DLL is a system library and it should be registered and called thru the engine internal code itself.
I have no idea about steam, but most likely it should do so, via the internal code.
I dare to say if TGC wants GG linked with steam the way you want to, GG could have their own dll to do so. imho

There are C extension modules for Lua and these modules are to be loaded by require()

Example: I have the module ABC (abc.dll) I can load the module this way:



After that I can run functions that are available in this module:
