hi everybody,
i am quite new to this list and pd. so there is a problem with the netpd objects.
i have an mac os10.4.11 and pd 0.40.3 extended.
unfortunately pd cannot create any pdnet-object. but the chat and the
creator seem to work properly.
is there someting missing? i thought everything is included in pd
extended for netpd to work...
i really appreciate any help! thx!
best! cmf
Hi Christian, Couple of weeks ago I found net_pd and I had the same problem.I´m running the PDextended 0.41.4 under osx.When I tried to open the tutorial patches, Pd couldn´t create the ojects.I found Roman at the net_pd chat some days ago.Try to open your extended version of pd and load the tutorial patches to the creator.Then open them through creator.Now Pd should create the net_pd objects.As you say everything needed is included in the extended version of Pd but as I understood(i´m a newbie) you need to load the patches to the creator and open them through it to make Pd create the objects.Sorry for my primitive explanation.

that is indeed true. pd-extended ships with all externals used by netpd and (even more) netpd-patches. the netpd-abstractions you mentioned are part of netpd itself and not part of pd-extended.
the documentation is a bit out of date and it wasn't high on my priority list, but since obviously people are having a look at it, i'll try to correct all the inconsistencies and mistakes.
in order to not force the user anymore to use a certain preferences setup (which was usually quite troublesome), netpd nowadays - since the introduction of [declare] - loads its dependencies itself. those dependencies are stored in a [declare] in _chat.pd . _creator.pd is loaded as an abstractions within _chat.pd and all netpd-patches are loaded as abstractions in _creator.pd. that is why netpd-patches are still in the scope of _chat.pd's [declare] and thus load the netpd abstractions successfully. any patch loaded _outside_ of _chat.pd (for instance, loaded through file->open) won't find the netpd-abstractions, unless it has its own [declare -path includes].
this is probably a bit a tough explanation of the problem for a newcomer. the really important thing for now: it's not your fault. however, as a workaround: everything that is loaded by creator will find the netpd abstractions. and: i need to fix this sooner or later.
thanks for the feedback
