hi pd folks - reaching out to the libpd oriented people on the list. i'm running into some issues using the latest libpd4unity version in Unity with a semi updated C# wrapper and libpdcsharp.
the issue seems to be involving audio data arrays and [soundfiler]. mainly it looks like adding a read command creates some kind of error, and i think it's PD based. might be a bug, but not sure yet.
the error happens in the attached patch in Unity using libpd4Unity with any local sound file. maybe the naming is off? regardless here's what prints:
error: array: couldn't find template pd-_float_array error: #A: no such object error: sample: no such table
if anyone on the list has an example of a patch using libpd4unity that loads samples to arrays correctly, i'm all ears. but as far as i can tell this should be some pretty basic stuff. i'm using the rjlib stuff for the most part and the synths all load since i dumped them all into one folder. but the sample player is being really stubborn. note that this is only when running libpd inside of Unity. running PD by itself i have no issues.
any help appreciated!
best, scott

this looks like a problem with using an array directly on the patch (as opposed to using [table]), probably in conjunction with stored samples in the patch (as opposed to reading them with [soundfiler]).
i suggest to replace the array with a [table sample] object (since this doesn't allow to to store values in-patch, it should solve both issues), in combination with [soundfiler] to read the actual data (which you seem to do anyhow)

okay - well that seems to work for my single patch demo. but for some reason it doesn't work when loading it into the larger patch. the 'A#' references are gone but the tables still aren't found.
i did a lot of tracking things down as i had about 280 errors in loading table objects - turns out the band limited square and saw oscillators read from tables and write as well. all tabread~ and tabwrite~ objects result in a unique number (likely the $0 designation) as well as the suffix'-transition'. but all of them fail with 'no such array' messages.
in the case of the sample player it comes up with 'no such table' first, for each sample, and then 'no such array'. everything is totally flat, no subfolders being used. i am using an abstraction for one of the samples - the rest are [pd patcher] objects, but all of them appear to have issues.
any further suggestions?

continued testing reveals a strange behavior. i have been going between a test Unity project using libpd4Unity and my main project. if i go to this test project first and then return to my main project everything works one time - i get no loading errors. but as soon as i stop the scene playback and start it again, i get the errors on table loading again. i've tested it three times and it's strangely consistent. so maybe the table assignments aren't being purged correctly when i stop playback? that's all i can think. if it thought it was already assigned it might fail assigning again. just a thought.
