Back there are some fairly hideous issues with mapped drives and unc paths. Xsi still, occasionally, seems hell bent on reverting unc paths back to drive maps if it catches the slightest wiff of a mapped drive. best to stick with either one or the other. It's the mixing that causes the problems.

I've encountered the same problem Kim had though I don't remember if it was in jscript as well. I ended up unmounting the drive letter that held the workgroup and configuring XSI to use the UNC path for the workgroup instead. Haven't encountered the problem since seemed to cause some sort of internal conflict if the workgroup path existed on a drive letter as XSI would oft default back to the UNC paths. We've seen this ALOT in regards to scene files and their paths as well.

Hi Kim,
That seem very similar, as the first line of the error said it could
not find the plug-in file.
Thanks for that info, I think I'll investigate the Linktab file.

problem was one of not finding the file. I've never seen it break things.
