Re: [PD] how to compile fat externals for apple with d_i386/d_amd64/d_arm64?)

So, yeah, doesn't seem possible, but I'm still not sure yet, and other than, it seems I can't mix in the download a fat binary (with 64/arm) along with some other binary for 32 bits (darwin or 'd_i386'). If I'm using Pd 32 bits it won't be able to load the correct one as it tries to load the fat one and fails!

hmm.

i guess there's two separate bugs here

1. i *think*, on macOS Pd should first try to load the arch-specific

extensions (.d_i386), and only then it should fall back to loading the fat binary (.d_fat). obviously it doesn't do that [1] right now.

2. if it fails to open a given binary (e.g. because of the wrong

architecture), it should continue to try the other file extensions. could you provide the full (related) output of the Pd-console, when it tries (and fails) to load the i386 binary?
