Description

The reason of disappearance of sf2player seems something else, and might need some attention. In my experience, the plugin compiles, there is a .dll file produced. But the plugin is NOT loaded when LMMS starts.

And the corresponding source says, function definition not found.

I'm not certain the PR will fix the module not found error, but I'm not going to rule out it's not possible. We'll wait for a reply from @anytizer if the PR fixes it.

Research direction

Start by reproducing LMMS startup with the compiled sf2player DLL and inspect the source around the reported “function definition not found” error. The issue names no files or tests; done means determining why the plugin is not loaded and confirming that sf2player loads successfully when LMMS starts.
