For each of our plug-ins we offer a developer license specially intended for developers of databases. This developer license allows you to include the plug-in in question with ALL databases or FileMaker custom apps that your company sells to organizations of up to 25 users (contact us if any of your customers has more than 25 users).
The developer license also allows you to distribute the plug-in with runtimes made with FileMaker Pro Advanced.
Please note: Certain restrictions apply. You need to use the built-in registration function of the plug-in. This enables the plug-in only for your database. See the “For solution developers” folder in the downloads for instructions on how to implement this.

updated version 1.1, march 2021: includes test for arm64 architecture (Apple Silicon).
FileMaker Pro (Advanced) 14 and later, FileMaker Server (Advanced) 14 and later, FileMaker Server 13 and WebDirect are 64-bit processes, for which plug-ins need to be compiled for 64-bit. On Windows 64-bit plug-ins are easily spotted as they have a different extension: fmx64. In the download of a 64-bit compatible plug-in you will find this extra copy of the plug-in.
Plug-ins for Mac OS can be universal and the extension is always the same: fmplugin. A universal plug-in is a single plug-in that will run on a 32-bit process as well as on 64-bit process. You can not easily see if a Mac OS plug-in is 64-bit compatible. Therefore we have created a simple dropper app called “Troi Architecture Check” to determine for which architectures a plug-in is compiled.
