I went to the "latest" folder and downloaded this one: Pd-0.39.2-extended-rc2-macosx104-powerpc.dmg The build date is 9-May-2007. Is that the one I should have used?

Thats cool, I think thats an elegant solution. Then I dont get why I still get this message from Gem: [text2d]: Gem has been compiled without FONT-support ! This is from the latest auto-build (may 9). I can clearly see the libfreetype.6.dylib in the correct path. Well I'm still very green at this, hope you can figure it out. I will keep testing the nightly-builds for font support. This process has been my first experience with compiling anything. BTW i was able to get text support going by including the static library within the Gem build. Gem blew up to 4.2MB, its a fatty but it works for my purposes.

Gem Compiling os x xcode problems
by nosehair911＠bellsouth.net 09 May '07

09 May '07

I have gotten Gem to compile sucesfully with font support using the xcode project somewhat. I get 1125 warnings, mainly this is the location of the previous definition. My biggets problem is that in my machine I have the latest freetype under usr/local/lib and I also have the freetype that comes with x11 under usr/ X11R6/lib. When I load gen in my machine it loads up fine with text support, but when I load up gem in a machine with only the freetype in usr/X11R6/lib Gem will not load up because it keeps looking for the libfreetype.6.dylib in usr/local/lib. I dont know how to remedy this. Any help would be great. Thanks, Alain

[pix_snap]/[pix_sna2tex]
by Roman Haefeli 09 May '07

09 May '07

hello when i snap the framebuffer using [pix_snap], i get a cpu usage of over 80% @ 20fps with dimension 320x240. is that what one would expect? the same, but using [pix_snap2tex] doesn't cause any cpu peak at all. of course, i'll use [pix_snap2tex] whenever possible, but i'd like to record opengl-stuff into a video file. or is there another/more optimized method to record gem's output into a videofile? roman ___________________________________________________________ Der frühe Vogel fängt den Wurm.

Gem release to match upcoming Pd-extended release
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 08 May '07

08 May '07

Since the next Pd-extended is about to be released, it makes sense to have some kind of Gem release. Any plans for that? If not, I can just grab a known-working snapshot from CVS and use that. .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- All information should be free. - the hacker ethic

Gem build error on Mac OS X when enabling FTGL in Fink
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 08 May '07

08 May '07

Hey all, I lovely new build problem, I know how much everyone loves those. :D If I add "--with-ftgl-includes=/sw/include --with-ftgl-libs=/sw/lib" to the ./configure flags for Gem on Mac OS X, then the Gem build dies with this error: g++ -c -I/sw/include -g -O2 -fPIC -freg-struct-return -Os -falign- loops=32 -falign-functio ns=32 -falign-jumps=32 -funroll-loops -ffast-math -mmmx -fpascal- strings -I.. -I/Users/ pd/auto-build/pd-extended-release/pd/src GemPBuffer.cpp -o GemPBuffer.o In file included from GemMan.cpp:28: /sw/include/QuickTime/QuickTime.h:4:2: warning: #warning libquicktime header files have mo ved to /sw/include/lqt/ - please adjust your include statements. g++ -c -I/sw/include -g -O2 -fPIC -freg-struct-return -Os -falign- loops=32 -falign-functio ns=32 -falign-jumps=32 -funroll-loops -ffast-math -mmmx -fpascal- strings -I.. -I/Users/ pd/auto-build/pd-extended-release/pd/src GemPathBase.cpp -o GemPathBase.o GemMan.cpp: In static member function 'static void GemMan::createContext(char*)': GemMan.cpp:336: error: '::EnterMovies' has not been declared make[3]: *** [GemMan.o] Error 1 It seems it is finding libquicktime in fink (/sw/include, etc.) libquicktime is needed for PDP and PiDiP, so I can't uninstall it. .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it. - Thomas Jefferson

[Gem]: very unstable on my box
by Roman Haefeli 07 May '07

07 May '07

hello since i try running gem under linux on my laptop, gem doesn't run as 'smooth' as i'd like to. i tried to compile myself, but also some binaries from hcs' pd-extended. though i managed to compile gem myself without troubles anymore (by using -with-glversion=1.5), the self compiled binary (cvs checkout from today) loads, but it crashes, as soon as i create the gemwin. the binary i got from pd-extended does work better, though still not satisfying. it is quite difficult and time consuming to track down specifically, what does work and what does not. for example, i am working on a patch, that creates about 400 geos (most of them are cuboids and some are models), that i can open, when running fluxbox, but when i open the same patch with the same pd/same options under gnome, i get the error: fglrx: Failed to map depth buffer! as soon as i start the rendering and the gem window stays blank. also using an usb-cam with [pix_video] does only work each second time i start pd, though i do exactly the same steps each time. when i send [device 1( to [pix_video] on loadbang, i get quite a lot of errors like: VIDIOCMCAPTURE1: Invalid argument VIDIOCMCAPTURE2: Invalid argument VIDIOCSYNC: Invalid argument and after about 30 times the above lines: verbose( 1):opened video connection F fglrx: Failed to map back buffer! after this, i need to restart pd in order to be able to use gem again. also, some gem-patches do work, when loaded without any other patches, but crash pd/gem, when opened together and gemwin is created. the most simple example for this behaviour, i could track down, are these two patches. 1) 2) [gemhead] [gemhead] | | [pix_image] [pix_video] | | [pix_texture] [pix_texture] | | [rectangle 5.33 4] [rectangle 5.33 4] both chains work, when loaded solely, but when merged into one patch, it crashes gem, when turning rendering on. also [pix_record] can be loaded and does work, but out of 5 trials, i can effectively record something once, the other four times pd/gem crashes, as soon as i turn rendering on, while [record(ing is active. there are sure more issues that don't come to my mind just now. i know, it is a pitty for developpers to get such inaccurate information (like: it does work sometimes and sometimes not), but unfortunately this is how things are on my computer. since it takes me more time to figure out, what does work and what not, than spending time with patching, i will be forced to decide, whether i will continue to use gem on this computer/system or not. but before that, i really want to try everything, that could fix my problems. i know too little about opengl and the inner coherences of gem, therefore i cannot say, if it is an issue of gem, of the fglrx driver or both or.... many other opengl-apps like xscreensaver, wings3d, blender, armagetron do work without any problems. also would i like to be able to compile gem myself (respectively: be able to use my self compiled binary), since i believe, that very likely the gem.pd_linux from was linked against libs with different version than i have. searching the gem-dev-list archives, showed me that there are other people running a very similar setup without all these problems: http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/gem-dev/2007-01/002491.html this keeps my hope alive.... my specs: pd-extended gem: GEM: ver: 0.91-cvs GEM: compiled: Jan 5 2007 gem from cvs: GEM: ver: 0.91-cvs GEM: compiled: May 7 2007 pd 0.40.2 ubuntu dapper fglrx ati mobility radeon 9600 pentium M 1.7GHz glxinfo: http://www.romanhaefeli.net/glxinfo.txt output from ./configure: http://www.romanhaefeli.net/gem_configure.txt any hint on that is _very_ appreciated. the fact, that other apps from the ubuntu repository work well, makes me think, that something is wrong during compile time (wrong headers?) and let me hope, that it is not generally impossible to have a working gem on my computer. to get rid of this issues would be like x-mas for me. roman ___________________________________________________________ Der frühe Vogel fängt den Wurm.

what freetype version for FTGL?
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 07 May '07

07 May '07

Mac OS X comes with freetype 2.1.4, will that work with FTGL/Gem? Fink can provide freetype 2.2.1, but it seems to be much harder to get things compiling easily with that. .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- Computer science is no more related to the computer than astronomy is related to the telescope. -Edsger Dykstra

FTGL is there, but still no font support
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 07 May '07

07 May '07

So on Mac OS X, FTGL is now built and installed using Fink: macosx104-powerpc:~ pd$ ls -l /sw/lib/libftgl.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 635052 Apr 20 22:16 /sw/lib/libftgl.a The headers are in place: macosx104-powerpc:~ pd$ ls /sw/include/FT* /sw/include/FTBBox.h /sw/include/FTGLTextureFont.h /sw/include/FTBitmapGlyph.h /sw/include/FTGlyph.h /sw/include/FTCharToGlyphIndexMap.h /sw/include/FTGlyphContainer.h /sw/include/FTCharmap.h /sw/include/FTLibrary.h /sw/include/FTContour.h /sw/include/FTList.h /sw/include/FTExtrdGlyph.h /sw/include/FTOutlineGlyph.h /sw/include/FTFace.h /sw/include/FTPixmapGlyph.h /sw/include/FTFont.h /sw/include/FTPoint.h /sw/include/FTGL.h /sw/include/FTPolyGlyph.h /sw/include/FTGLBitmapFont.h /sw/include/FTSize.h /sw/include/FTGLExtrdFont.h /sw/include/FTTextureGlyph.h /sw/include/FTGLOutlineFont.h /sw/include/FTVector.h /sw/include/FTGLPixmapFont.h /sw/include/FTVectoriser.h /sw/include/FTGLPolygonFont.h ./configure is run with flags to point to Fink: cd /Users/pd/auto-build/pd-extended-release/Gem/src && ./configure -- without-x --without-I mageMagick \ --without-tiff --without-jpeg --without-mpeg --without-mpeg3 \ --without-ieee1394 --without-aviplay --without-avifile -- without-ffmpeg \ --with-ftgl-includes=/sw/include --with-ftgl-libs=/sw/lib \ --with-pd=/Users/pd/auto-build/pd-extended-release/pd But it doesn't work: checking for ftgl-config... yes checking for main in -lftgl... no I thought that Gem was statically linked against its libs, does it need the dylib? .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- Mistrust authority - promote decentralization. - the hacker ethic

fsaa enabling?
by rick snow 06 May '07

06 May '07

Hi, I am relatively new to all this so I'm not sure this is the correct place to ask this question or not. essentially I would like to enable fsaa but am not sure where or how to do it. Is this done within GEM or on the graphics card? Could anyone let me know or point me toward where I might find out? many thanks! Rick
