Thanks or the info. Yeah I couldn't find msvcr71.dll anywhere till I looked in max/msp. I also could not figure out why that pd 0.42.5 gem worked without it before I installed pd 0.43. Everything seems to be working great now.
Maybe you have uninstalled pd-extended 0.42.5 before, then it has uninstalled gem and dll's it needs, and maybe the pd-extended 0.43 install script omit to put this dll?
Another big duh to me. pdx has the msvcr71.dll in it's bin folder.
I do try to keep my patches working using only vanilla except for ~moog and Gem. I would like to be able to do a moog abstraction with vanilla filtering objects. I just recently listened to some of the iem vcf filters. They sound pretty good too.
yes they do, did you try ggee filters? they are the best ones I've heard on pd, maybe because they use [biquad~].
I only tried the ~moog. I will have to listen to the others now.
you know when you add an external path it will be available from all pd versions because it's litterally a full path name that is added by the new tcl interface, and because vanilla and extended shares the same config file. that's why I use to start patches made for vanilla with a .bat script, then I can set exactly what I need in pd for my application.
Actually on my machine there are separate registry entries for pdx and pd. both versions of vanilla I have installed share the same registry entry.
The problem with using externals with cross platform applications is if you don't supply the library on all 3 platforms then there may be some people that cant use your patch.
That's why I think that pd-extended should add only externals available on all 3 platforms. It's not really the job of patch developpers to provide cross platform externals and libraries but the job of the external developpers.
Is there a list of externals that work on all 3 platforms?
