Hi Patrick,

Kalimba should have an example project set up- which sends various bangs and floats to PD from within Unity. Maybe it's not there anymore? Anyways, here's a simple patcher and a unity project that sends bangs to the patch!

If you need a quick way of firing of sound effects, maybe the Pip Abstraction can be of help, too.


Let us know how it goes and if you have any other questions!


Best,

Filippo

I looked at that one as well but it just provides an example with a slider and two frequencies attached to a GUI slider. If I can get an example of how to fire off samples from Unity3D I will be good to go. btw the libpdcsharp.dll included with that example did not work so I used the one from Sebastiens example and it worked. I hope someone on list is willing to share a simple sample play example. Or a receive a bang example ideally, yes we want it included in the game and not pd running as a separate sound server

hi Patrick, i can let others chime in, but as i recall there's a number of methods here. Patrick Sebastien's method uses libpd running directly in Unity, and i must admit it's a little confusing for me to understand as well. 

another method uses Unity and PD separately during development but pairs it with libpd at build time. however, if you're running a Kinect off of it, then it sounds like it's more of an installation thing than an enclosed app, so this could also work.

i would have a look at the Kalimba framework. it might be clearer as to what's happening, with PD communicating to/from Unity separately via OSC. here's the github for Kalimba:


good luck!

Hello

I am working on a simple game project for a child's museum that has a delivery date of October 30, so i have a little time to play around a bit and i was considering using libpd with Unity3D for the audio portion of the game.
The game is a Egyptian game so i need a sample to run as soon as the game starts with some Egyptian music playing.
The game players will be tracked with Kinect and at one point Kick Snakes for points [Kicking Asps] and i need there to be a sample fired off each time a snake is successfully kicked. So really two samples need to be fired off from Unity to libpd. 

The pd portion i have no problem creating but i am wondering if anyone on list has a Unity example they would be willing to share that Pd receives a bang from Unity3D? The online example from Patrick Sebastien seems to be this hard-coded midi note patch that randomizes an osc and it's very confusing as i cannot figure out where the data is being exchanged.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and i will of course credit you in the game credits 

thank you

Patrick
