Hallo, Hans-Christoph Steiner hat gesagt: // Hans-Christoph Steiner wrote:
nqpoly~ may be crippled, but nqpoly4 is actually quite good. The
only tricky thing about it is initialization. And you do have to
close and reopen patches sometimes to reset everything. But once you
get things running, its quite stable. I used nqpoly4 in my solitude
piece, there I controlled 500 instances of an object. Right now I am
helping someone control 100 spheres in Gem using nqpoly4.
I'm not sure, if you can use it, but there is a nice Gem idiom which makes dealing with large numbers of objects of the same kind (like 100 spheres) much easier than creating 100 [sphere] objects. It involves the use of IEMlib's [any] object connected to a [separator]. I use this idiom a lot when visualising physical models with [msd]. Attached is the abstraction I use there.
