What did you do exactly, step by step?

[DabDab]

@Gabriel-Strozi @d-healey is the real Manager of HISE. Being a Developer and Founder(@Christoph-Hart ) it is difficult to answer users difficulties and problems. Most of the time I have seen Mr Healey helps at his best. When he suggested to use ScriptNode branch go for it.

I tried to replace Hise-Master folder

What did you do exactly, step by step?

Step 1 - downloaded develop-branch:

Step 2 - extracted HISE-develop.rar

Step 3 - deleted all the current HISE-master folder content:

Step 4 - copied and pasted all the HISE-develop content into HISE-master folder

I did the same try with scriptNode branch!
Is it better to just redirect HISE-master folder to HISE-develop folder in the HISE preferences?

[DabDab]

@Gabriel-Strozi No Delete master. Only use scriptNode

[d.healey]

As DabDab says, delete the HISE master entirely.

You missed out the most important step though, recompile HISE.

No that's only relevant for exporting plugins. The best solution is to use git.

So I have to delete all the structure \HISE-master\HISE-master?

You missed out the most important step though, recompile HISE.

Sorry for the newbie question again, but how I recompile Hise? I just downloaded and installed using the .exe installer.

EDIT: I'm watching your video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYUZ4K4J3Os&t=0s&ab_channel=DavidHealey

If I can't make it work, I tell you! Thank so much!

Oh that explains everything. You're using an ancient version of HISE.

Follow the instructions on the github page or in my tutorial video. Ignore the stuff about using IPP it will just cause you more headaches. You will need to add USE_IPP=0 to the preprocessor definitions in Projucer, disable IPP in the hi_core module, and delete any paths in the extra search paths that reference IPP (it should make sense after you've watched the video).

I made all steps you teach in your video. Also change IPP on Projucer to "Disabled". Then opened on VS2017, adjusted all settings as you show and then recompiled HISE.

Even doing all this, Engine.createGlobalScriptLookaAndFeel() can't be found. :/

And also, when trying to export, VST SDK is missing (even with the VST3 SDK folder inside the tool>sdk folder. :/

[d.healey]

Did you delete all other copies of HISE and the HISE source code before you compiled?

[Gabriel Strozi]

Yes, I deleted old versions, all HISE-master, HISE-develop and HISE-scriptnode .rar and folders, deleted data from Roaming folder, etc.

I tried it again and the same: no Engine.createGlobalScriptLookAndFeel :/

[d.healey]

@Gabriel-Strozi Click on the HISE logo and post a screenshot of what you see there

[Gabriel Strozi]

I see this!

[d.healey]

Looks good. Post the HISE script you're trying to compile.

[Gabriel Strozi]

Do you mean the .jucer archive?

[d.healey]

@Gabriel-Strozi No I mean your script inside HISE. The place you are writing Engine.createGlobalScriptLookAndFeel(), etc.

[Gabriel Strozi]

Ah, ok!
It's here:

//Look and Feel Section

const laf = Engine.createGlobalScriptLookAndFeel();

And the error:

[Gabriel Strozi]

And the function is not present in APICollection:

[d.healey]

I have no idea what you've done because that function has been in HISE for about a year if not more, so even if you were compiling the master branch it should be there.

Are you free to do a video call with screenshare?

[Gabriel Strozi]

@d-healey Thanks for all support. Problably I done anything wrong, even following all the steps you teach.

Wow, I really appreciate your help! Yes, I'm free now to do a video call
