posts). i didn't think Unity was friendly towards straight C, but yes to Javascript, C# and Boo.
i'm mainly asking because i'm interested in a way that students can experience adaptive audio at work in the Unity game environment. texture sending and receiving is unimportant - it's mainly messages.
so essentially i just redo what i see in the max patch in a generic way using PD objects. OK will give a port of your test patch a try...
thanks for the info!
No problem! One thing I would suggest is using disis_netsend and disis_netreceive as using the vanilla netsend/receive objects tends to crash the gui in situations with heavy network traffic.
i am also intrigued by the possibilities of using PD (libpd) as an audio middleware engine, ala Fmod or Wwise. ideally something like Juce on top doing a nice intuitive GUI with drag and drop elements. the advantage to all this being that it would be free to use and not have a license fee like the aforementioned do. i've worked a bit with Fmod and i can envision some alternatives in terms of visual options. i have zero in the way of coding experience of course, but i think the game market needs an open source audio engine.

Unity also does seamless integration of java, javascript, C#, boo (python-like language), as well as C (IIRC).
