@Lindon This article has a much better explanation than I could come up with.

You can select whether it's the system folder or user folder. In general, I always install files to the System Library ("/Library"), and then use a post install script to move user-specific configurations, preferences, or files for the project (AKA presets, documentation, ect...) to the User Library ("~/Library")

Thanks Dan - I will give this process a go.

@Lindon Oh dude, if you're stay looking for info, hit me up over chat. I got that shizzle down.

@Dan-Korneff okay back here again , and its still not working for me, here's what Im trying to do in teh set up:

and I build this and get:

Im running this as me nothing unusual...

[Lindon]

the only thing I see as different is when I start to define the payload then /Library doesnt have Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3 in it - so I create them, and they are seen as custom folders not as Standard Folders..

so how do I get Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3 to show up in packages?

@Lindon this is a permissions issue with OSX. try putting the .vst3 in the VST3 folder DAW's use and see if it works.

Otherwise the dev gave me a version that should get around this issue but I had to also add something into gatekeeper / start up options

er thats what Im trying to do... get Packages to put the plugin in /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3

[Lindon]

@Lindon ahhh.. @DanH .. now I get you ... I just moved the VST3 from the desktop into the destination folder I wanted (/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3) and rebuild the Package and it works .. well it builds at least....

[DanH]

@Lindon cool, but it won't stick it into the users VST3 folder?

[Lindon]

@DanH oh no idea, havent tried that yet - been busy trying to get it notarised...

[Dan Korneff]

@Lindon I create my packages from the Desktop as well.
Have you compared your settings to the JUCE tutorial?

@Lindon also, I think it's recommended to use the latest version from git
