Export Failing Due To Missing Knob Images
-
Hello I am attempting to export my first app as a standalone app in my windows laptop.
However after hitting export, and opening the Juce file that Hise created
I get this error message which does not allow me to save project and open in IDE
As you can see, the knob images are missing even though I am using the default skin for the knobs.
I am not using any custom knob images just the default skin. I can't find these missing PNGs anywhere.

You shouldn't need to open Projucer. Did you go through the Export menu in HISE?
-
@weezycarter This is my first export so I am actually a little lost as to how to get a working application. I have scoured the forums and youtube tutorials and still don't know how to export.
After I hit export as standalone in Hise a terminal popped up which showed me that a JUCE file was created as part of the export process. That's why I opened the JUCE file, I thought I was supposed to save and open in IDE to finish export.
What should I do?
Sorry for my ignorance. -

The terminal window you see is running a batch file that HISE created in your project's Binaries folder. You can open the batch file in a text editor to see what it does. It basically does all the stuff you would do manually when compiling HISE. It saves the juicer project and runs Visual Studio to compile it.
Are you using the latest develop branch of HISE?
-
@d-healey I compiled Hise already and am running the latest edition of HISE. I actually just confirmed right now.
Here is the batch file
-
@weezycarter Are you sure you're using the develop branch of HISE?
That message about the path not being specified looks similar to an issue someone posted a week or so ago. Checkout this thread - https://forum.hise.audio/topic/1988/can-not-export-the-system-cannot-find-the-file-specified/67?_=1717947611475

@d-healey Thank you I looked at that link for quite a while and am still a little lost as to what to do in my specific situation. Am I supposed to compile hise all over again to make sure I did it correctly?
-
@weezycarter What happens when you type
msbuildinto the commandline and hit enter? -
@d-healey am I supposed to type that in command prompt?
This is what I get when I do so.

Correct.
That indicates you have the same issue as the person in that thread I linked to. You need to rerun the Visual Studio installer and make sure msbuild is installed.
And are you certain you're using the develop branch of HISE and not the master branch?
-
@d-healey yes I downloaded from the develop branch
-
@d-healey ok so I recompiled Hise and it exported perfectly. Now my issue when trying to open the application is the sample archive. It is asking me for an hr1 file. I don’t know where that is.

Did you make one?
Export > Export samples as archiveYou only need this if you are planning to distribute your sample to others in this format.
-
@d-healey I would like for other users to use this plugin eventually when it is done so yes I am trying to create the hr1 file but I don't see the option you mentioned
-
@weezycarter Looks like Christoph has changed that menu since I last built HISE. I guess it's the Package sample monolith files option. You need to have converted your sample maps to monoliths first.
Edit: I just compiled the latest version and now mine matches yours.
-
@d-healey Ok thank you so much! Everything is good now.
