Thank you for your help

Please provide more information. You just copied the last 3 lines of the compiler output, that there was an error, but not any actual error message. With just saying there was an error we cannot say anything. Please provide the full error message and maybe some more informations about your environment, what compiler are you using, are you using the latest MegaMol?

We just updated the misleading manual. Please use the latest master branch and no release, that should work much better.

Thank you very much for your answer！I have successfully installed the Windows version of megamol.
And I want to use the MolecularMaps plugin to map the surface of my compound molecules to a simple 2d representation.

Emmm, But I read the instructions for this plugin and there are no detailed steps on how I can use it in the software megamol and would like to ask how I should install this plugin in the software! I look forward to your reply, thank you very much!
