Hi,

As the topic title says, after the 12/12/2016 update, I'm getting the message (in the console window):

CRITICAL ERROR: FAILED TO FIND Follow

It seems to occur when a person logs into a character.

Thanks!

probably a hook update is needed, you get the error everytime a plugin is loaded, you load 11 plugins so you get 11 errors.

I should note to whomever, even after the most recent Windower update (12/13/2016 at 13:11 CST) the problem remains.

So the good news: We're aware of the problem. One of the signatures in the plugin API is broken. In addition, it only affects parts of the addon API that deal with /follow, and /automove.

And the other good news: A fix should be coming soon, but I don't know exactly when.

I believe the most recent update was to push out resources.

as I don't use /follow lately, I will ignore the annoying errors while awaiting a fix

Thanks for the heads up about /follow

As for the most recent update (12/21/2016), I am still getting the error, BUT only once per login not 11 times.

Thanks.

Oh, yes, I do use /follow, but have not used it yet this session.

Finally, not sure why the comment about RIP, multi-box, but the error occurs in both single and multi-box mode.

I.B.

P.S. A thought for the future (maybe even for the fix for this last message): Have the message include the name of the plugin reporting the or any issue.

The plugin doing this is the guildwork one, cause it downloads the old version from the guildwork servers. They will have to update it with the new one.

He said RIP multibox because it affects autofollow which is used on healbot and such... meaning multiboxers have to go back to alt-tab /follow like the old days ^.^
