VST export failed

[d.healey]

@ustk Did you try searching for the file with the relative path as @gorangrooves suggested?

[ustk]

@d-healey that's what I don't understand...
What file? Where?

[d.healey]

@ustk The file should be mentioned in the error message.

[ustk]

That is what I thought at first but here's what I got:

[d.healey]

@ustk Oh, yeah add the VST2 sdk to the SDK folder as Lindon suggested and that should go away. Seems like it's a bug because when you enable VST3 export I would have thought this message would be suppressed.

[ustk]

Ok so I found a way to at least not to have this error message, but it didn't work with VST2 SDK but by decompressing the sdk.zip, which have a VST3 SDK folder...

But when compiling, here's what I get:

And when going into the juce_VST3Headers.h file, it is apparently a version issue, because I don't have base/source/flock.cppfile anywhere:

[d.healey]

@ustk Actually the VST3 SDK folder is the VST2.4 SDK ;)

I'm not sure about the flock.cpp thing

[ustk]

@d-healey said in VST export failed:

@ustk Actually the VST3 SDK folder is the VST2.4 SDK ;)

Yep you're right, but since there is also a VST2 folder that exists I want to make it clearer...

@Christoph-Hart any thought about this VST3 problem that persists?

[ustk]

Also, do we need to recompile Hise every time we change something in the SDK folder?

[d.healey]

@ustk No

[ulrik]

@ustk That is exactly what I get as well when trying to compile for VST3, if disabling VST3 it compiles fine.

Bump Bump

@ustk @ulrik
Actually Since Hise uses VST3 SDK, I am using that and I can compile both vst2 & vst3 plugins without any issues with this sdk. This is my folder structure - download the sdk and rename it like that;

VST 3 SDK Version 3.6.6

[Dan Korneff]

I have not been able to successfully compile vst3 either

@dustbro Are you getting a warning while compiling? Or the host doesn't detect vst3?
It works on both mac and pc. Vst3 works.

Sometimes if you have multiple vst versions for one plugin (like vst2 & vst3), some hosts are very picky. Especially Studio One. It sees only vst2, not vst3 for me. But I didn't see a problem in Ableton, Reaper and Cubase about detecting vst3 plugins.

@orange I'm getting the flock.cpp thing

@dustbro Which sdk version?
I am using VST 3 SDK Version 3.6.6, you can download it and try.

[d.healey]

@orange According to the first link I posted

You need to update to VST 3.6.7

[ulrik]

@orange I have the same structure as you, and the latest VST3 SDK downloaded today from Steinberg developer and Hise still don't want to compile a VST3 plugin...strange :(
