Strange problem.

[lalalandsynth]

So I am working on an Impulse Reverb with a collaborator.

Weirdly , the reverb works for him , in the sense that he can switch impulses in the HISE project and export a working plugin. ( Well, he did not get any of the PNG images, bet he forgot to embed them)

Me, impulse switching does not work in the HISE Project , the project loads with no impulses and I have to load one manually.
Exporting the plugin , nothing works , not volume , no impulses , no metering but it does pass audio.

We are using the exact same project and the same latest develop.
Strangely if I go back to older HISE versions and older XML backups , the switching has stopped working for all projects across all versions ?

He just started working in HISE so he only has an old version and the latest Develop on his computer.

I have several versions, could that be the problem ?

Of the HISE source code?

[lalalandsynth]

@d-healey Yes, I just extract the files into a folder , build and keep the source code and do not delete anything . Seen on the forum that is not good practice

What is good practice here to keep older versions but not get into problems.
Should I only keep the "release" folder after building ?

Almost certainly

Use git.

[lalalandsynth]

@d-healey Hmm, yeah ...dont really understand GIT.
I mean , keeping older running versions on my computer, that is kind of needed since newer version often have showstoppers.

So in order to fix my current problem , delete all versions except for the latest develop ?

Also, just curious , why is this a problem ? They do not share any folders that I know of and are on separate drives.

Go and learn. I have a video about git but that's for managing your HISE projects. For managing HISE you don't need to go into such detail. I'll make a video about it for next month I think.

With git you only have one version at a time and can switch between any version and any commit.

Cool ! No idea how to do that.

Should I delete all other versions and see if that fixes my problem?

Only ever have one copy of the source code on the system (unless you know exactly what you're doing, even I mess this up sometimes).

[lalalandsynth]

@d-healey Great , will do, lets see if that fixes the problem.
I have had multiple versions for a long time , never had a problem until now, but point taken, will delete.

[lalalandsynth]

@d-healey Deleted all other versions , still does not work.
I built this with the latest Juce , maybe that is a problem ?

Everything you need comes with HISE. - Unless you're doing C++ stuff that requires features in the latest JUCE version.

[lalalandsynth]

@d-healey Ok, building again. :)

[lalalandsynth]

@d-healey I get this error in VS using the projucer that comes with it .
"This project was last saved using an outdated version of the Projucer! Re-save this project with the latest version to fix this error."

[lalalandsynth]

@lalalandsynth
Tried deleting everything , downloading develop again.
But it always stops building and displays that error.

Could this be because I have a more recent version on my computer, although I am using the version that came with Develop?

EDIT: Deleted all versions of Juce , still cannot get it to build ?
