I have pointed the directory to the plugins folder I created, this has a load of plugins in there, but when I go to the plugins dropdown in ollydbg they arent there?
No, OllyDbg 2.x does support plugins. There are many OllyDbg 2.x plugins out there, just check tuts4you.com. I remember that one certain 2.x version did not support plugin, but it was not so long before another version got released with the support for plugins.
I guess what he/she needs is just to adjust the "Plugin path" key in OllyDbg.ini.
I have almost the same problem, I set up Directory in options and downloaded some olly 2.xx plugins but they fail to appead, as a matter of fact even the plugin menu is disabled, what I did wrong ?
It may be the plugin.h PLUGIN_VERSION used for compiling the plugin. For Ollydbg 2.01e it was 0x00020002, for the current 2.01f it's 0x00020003.
The value is checked on returning from ODBG2_Pluginquery. If you really want to, patch this in the plugin, it's obvious in IDA.
There's no guarantee an older plugin will still work since newer plugin.h declarations may have changed, but this should at least make it appear in the menu.
Check to see if the following message appears in the Log window, which will point to a version incompatibility:
Subdirectories of the plugins directory don't seem to be parsed, so you need to put all of your plugin files directly in the root of your plugins directory
