    Default launch plugin without netload

    hello every body
    I successfully made a Class in VB.Net and compiled a DLL that loaded with AutoCAD's Netload command
    but is there a short way to load my plugin directly at the launch of autocad ? or anyway?
    i've tried to put it in
    Users\home\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\ApplicationPlugins, it doesn't work
    i use vb.net
    need help
    thanks

    Hi,

    You can use the registry to load your application at startup or at command invocation, this is the old but still working way. See this subject.

    For AutoCAD 2012 or later, you'd rather use the Autoloader (bundle) mechanism. See this thread.

    Yes, you can build an installer which just deploy the bundle folder to ApplicationPlugins one.
