Exported plugin fails to load (Windows ARM)
-
@paper_lung Probably because the M1 has an ARM CPU and the VST3 is compiled on an x86 CPU.Oh I missed the bit where you said previous plugins have worked on both systems...
Can you retest one of your previous projects with the latest develop branch?
-
@d-healey good shout - I've just re-exported an older project, and it no longer shows in any DAW's and fails the pluginval with the same error. runs fine on my windows pc.
-
@paper_lung See if you can find the commit where it stops working
-
@d-healey I'm wondering if IPP might be the issue as it's flagged as on, and while I have it installed, my previous plugins did not use IPP so I'll check that first
-
disabling IPP had no effect
-
@d-healey you mentioned here that a recent commit which added AVX caused issues on some VM's, any chance this could be the issue I'm seeing? Do I need to disable AVX somewhere? https://forum.hise.audio/post/109773
-
I've removed IPP, disabled AVX flag in Projucer but still won't work
-
@paper_lung did you disable it in the juicer file for your project?
-
@d-healey Yeah I did
-
@paper_lung and you compiled it manually in visual studio?
-
@d-healey Yes
-
I've got through everything, even installed VC redistributable
-
@paper_lung Have you tried going back through older commits to find out which one causes the issue?
-
@d-healey INot yet, but there's literally hundreds of commits since my last plugin exports which worked successfully. Do you know of any recent commits which may have affected Windows Arm plugins? I can't see anything other than the AVX changes, but I've disabled AVX anyway.

@paper_lung said in Exported plugin fails to load (Windows ARM):
but there's literally hundreds of commits
You don't need to test them all.
Go back 6 months, test a commit from then, if it works then you jump forward 3 months, try a commit, if that doesn't work you go back 1.5 months, etc. You can quickly narrow down which commit caused the issue.

@d-healey Ok thanks for the tip. I'll have to give this another try next week.
