@Consint this is so helpful- thank you!

@d-healey Alright, I tried that and it worked. Thanks buddy :)

@d-healey ok. Thank you. I work with Linux and Windows. But Linux is best.

@d-healey Ahhh.... that didn't work. But just looking at the file structure. I've spotted the issue. I have all my main project work in folders with an underscore at the beginning (just how I've organised my folders forever!). Hise doesn't seem to like that underscore. I've dragged the project folder onto the desktop and it's built! 9 times out of 10 these kind of things are either a checkbox, or a stray underscore or space.

Thank you both for the supportive introduction to the community. I'm looking forwards to the journey ahead and with less underscores.

Thank you! I’m working on implementing something similar based on this post.

Do I first need to create a set number of licenses (e.g., 4000) and then encrypt them all? Or is there a way to create a pattern that meets specific criteria, as you mentioned, without creating each string?

How do I encrypt all the strings? I assume it's with encryptWithRSA, but how should be done?

Well when I use this method I wrote a HISE application that:

allows me to enter a public and a private key and a project name allows me to define my characters and positions generates a user entered number of strings that comply with 2 above encodes these strings using the private key, tests they all decode correctly Writes the encoded strings to a text file Records the project data into a recallable json file....

I suggest you do the same....

@Lindon Ok. 🤭

@ccbl

That's correct

@griffinboy Ok

@Christoph-Hart Okay. I understand. monolith is my friend.

@Sampletekk In Inno Setup, the commoncf64 directory constant is used for 64-bit Common Files folder. So the below is the example for VST3 & AAX folder installation with Inno Setup.

Source: FolderPath\YOUR_PLUGIN.vst3; DestDir: "{commoncf64}\VST3\"; Components: VST364; Flags: ignoreversion Source: FolderPath\YOUR_PLUGIN.aaxplugin\*.*; DestDir: {commoncf64}\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins\YOUR_PLUGIN.aaxplugin\; Components: aax_64; Flags: ignoreversion recursesubdirs createallsubdirs

@DanH Thank you so much! I owe you a beer or a coffee! 😊 ;)

@d-healey ah ok strange.

Thankyou for your help as I now have it working properly and selecting the correct samplemaps.

I've also got the expansion load working in daw as well so I can progress with my project which is great news.

Thanks again, your help is always invaluable

@xander You need to export (compile) separately on each OS you want to use.

For AAX you need to sign up for an AVID developer account, and you'll also need a PACE account and iLok for signing your plugins. You'll need to compile the AAX SDK on each OS before you can use it.

@ustk That was quick! Really nice work :mage: :mage:

@d-healey awesome, thank you

@d-healey thank you
