@gryphonsegg ok make a simple sine wave generator plugin, and try to compile it...

[gryphonsegg]

@Lindon

[gryphonsegg]

@gryphonsegg same thing again

[gryphonsegg]

@Lindon did you see it? what the heck could be happening?

[d.healey]

@gryphonsegg Try exporting as a VST3 instead of VST2 (there's a checkbox in project preferences).

[gryphonsegg]

@d-healey still did the same fail

[d.healey]

@gryphonsegg It's interesting that it shows "Compiling 64bit Instrument plugin` in the output because I can't find that phrase in the HISE source code. I wonder where that's coming from...

[Adam_G]

@gryphonsegg in your HISE folder is there a sub folder? that error can happen when theres a subfolder like HISE/Hise-Develop where the Hise-Develop folder is the one that should be in the Hise Path box

[d.healey]

@Adam_G You can see in his screenshots

[Adam_G]

@d-healey oops missed that

[Adam_G]

@gryphonsegg youre building on a PC yes? you should uncheck support 32 bit mac os

[d.healey]

Ah I think I might know what the problem is. Please paste the contents of the batch file from your project's binaries folder.

I've got to go out shortly but so it might be a while until I respond.

[gryphonsegg]

@d-healey what do I save it as? XML or archive?

[d.healey]

@gryphonsegg Open it in a text editor, it's just plain text.

[gryphonsegg]

@d-healey sorry, because I have had no ability to use it yet I am confused as to what you want me to send you

[d.healey]

In your project's binaries folder there will be a file called something like build.bat (I can't remember the name on Windows). Open that file in a text editor and paste the contents here.

I'm 99% sure the path it's telling us it can't find is the path to Visual Studio. So I want to see the content of this file to check where it's looking.

[gryphonsegg]

@d-healey ok sorry for the confusion.

pause

[d.healey]

@gryphonsegg No problem, it's hard to explain this thing via text, especially when you're not familiar with it.

So this is the path it's looking for C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MsBuild.exe"

I'm guessing you have something like a pro version of VS rather than the community version?

[gryphonsegg]

@d-healey this says its looking for visual studio on C but I have it on E. how is that? can I change where it is looking?
