Sample installer only extracts the first part on Intel Macs
-
I have a ~6 GB library split into four .hr parts, installed on first launch with installExpansionFromPackage. It works fine on Apple Silicon and
Windows, but on Intel Macs it only installs about the first part (~a quarter of the samples) and then says it finished successfully.Already ruled out: plenty of free space, all parts intact and in the same folder, tried internal and external drives, 16 GB RAM, current HISE.
Its an old laptop I got that i can test intel mac on. Plugin itself runs perfect if I have a folder with all the .ch1 extracted on it.

so turns out the cause was macOS's quarantine flag (the "downloaded from the internet" tag Chrome adds). it got hung moving to the next .hr2 file. I was testing downloading the .hr files from moonbase as a "customer" on an old intel mac laptop. Moving the downloads into a fresh folder on my Desktop and installing from there fixed it — everything installed cleanly. Im not sure if this is a big sur thing? or an intel mac thing? Its a 12 year old laptop.

@jeffd Interesting, I wonder if codesigning the hr files would help
-
@David-Healey i was about to ask. Ship the samples inside a notarized .dmg or .pkg? is that doable?
-
@jeffd I wouldn't, but it is doable.
-
@David-Healey Is it possible to codesign the hr files individually?
-
@jeffd I haven't tried
-
@David-Healey im guessing no because theres no code to sign. probably have to package it or something.
-
@jeffd Try it and report back
-
@David-Healey ill try it
