Hi list,
running Pd 0.48-0 vanilla on Windows and installing Gem 0.93.3 via Deken causes Problems at a few computers around me.
Gem loads with a [declare -lib Gem] object, but creating a [gemwin] object by sending it the [create< message fails with many lines of ... couldn't create GLdefine GL_LINEAR ... couldn't create GLdefine GL_EXP ... couldn't create GLdefine GL_EXP2 ... couldn't create GLdefine GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT ... couldn't create GLdefine GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT ... couldn't create GLdefine GL_STENCIL_BUFFER_BIT ... couldn't create GEMglMatrixMode GL_MODELVIEW ... couldn't create GEMgluLookAt 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 1 0 ... couldn't create GEMglLoadIdentity ... couldn't create GEMglMatrixMode GL_PROJECTION ... couldn't create GEMglLoadIdentity ... couldn't create GEMglFrustum -1 1 -1 1 1 20 ... couldn't create
IOhannes suspected a problem with the presence of a file Gem-meta.pd in the search path, but there seems no such file present on the computers at hand.
Using the Gem Windows installer from http://gem.iem.at/releases/0.93.3/Gem-0.93.3-W32-i686.exe did not help either.
This problem persists largely on Windows 10 machines and is present or not on identical operating system versions on different installations.
After a suggestion that Gem might be lacking certain Microsoft Visual C++ libraries in Windows10 installations I am trying to track down the exact name of the required libraries. I am unable to find that information from the mailinglist archive. It would be great if someone who has/had the same problem could help us out here.
Thank you for all ideas, Peter
