Can Modplug find VSTs itself?

[Saga Musix]

We had a nice discussion at #modarchive and now i'm wondering: Can ModPlug locate samples in a standard VST directory itself if they are not assigned yet? It would be cool if it did so. I think some major commercial Apps have a SET variable that includes the standard vst directory... it would be great if modplug could look up the DLLs there...

MODPlug cannot find VST and VSTi's on its own. Even if they're in the same directory.

They have to be added manually. Rewbs said in the past that it was too hard for him to add this, as each plugin gets stored in a database or something, and having this done automatically could screw things up seriously.

I can't remember why I would have said that. It shouldn't too hard to scan to for VSTs, but it's not on my todo list (loading plugins manually doesn't bug me enough to want to implement a better way ).

Maybe you got too anoyed by me, and this was a quick way to shut me up?
