I can only compile VST2 on Windows currently. Do we need VST3?

[hisefilo]

@d-healey not me. I guess it's ok @ustk ?

[lalalandsynth]

@hisefilo I have a beta test forum , can put it out for a test there ?

[ustk]

@d-healey @hisefilo @lalalandsynth VST3 is not mandatory, but the future is knockin' at the door

[lalalandsynth]

Seems like a lot of plugins come with a VST3 option these days.

[d.healey]

@ustk Can you compile Windows VST3?

[ustk]

@d-healey Never tried to compile on windows, just used Hise. If nobody can I'll have a go…

[hisefilo]

@ustk @d-healey IMPORTANT: Windows compilation should be done on Hise 30Jan2020 or newer regarding some nodes not present on previous versions!!!

[hisefilo]

Mac installer done. and pushed (sorry GIT)

[ustk]

Side question, isn't Visual Studio free?
I'm trying to compile and VS2017 complains with a 30 days evaluation expired...
But a free online version is VS2019, which is, afaik, not good for compiling Hise right?

[d.healey]

Yes it should be available for free. Maybe Microsoft have issued an automatic downgrade to get people to use the newer version.

I use this program to get around time limits on some apps, might work with VS too.

[ustk]

@d-healey Cool, testing...

[ustk]

@d-healey Well, unfortunately it does not work...

[hisefilo]

@ustk I can compile Win if needed

[ustk]

@d-healey Can you please try to launch it with a Juce file? The message appears as soon as I place the cursor to select the architecture

[ustk]

@hisefilo Yep sure, I was just trying for compiling a VST3, so anyway I will need to make it to work sometime for myself

[ustk]

@d-healey Ok... Hmm... Well... Where to begin... I just had to log myself in

[ustk]

@hisefilo @d-healey Ok guys I abort compiling VST3 on windows for the moment, so we'll do without.
I can't compile Hise anymore (Dave's branch)

[d.healey]

@ustk Should I compile the Windows VST2?

[hisefilo]

@d-healey yes please :) I'm having a hard time trying to figure out Inno
