VST SDK is missing
-
Hey,
I want to export an FX plugin and received the error message "VST SDK is missing". I've tried following this thread: https://forum.hise.audio/topic/356/vst-sdk-is-missing, but it appears that it is outdated. The VST SDK on Steinberg's website is no longer the VST 3.6.7 Audio Plug-Ins SDK (Format: zip, 66.6 MB) mentioned, but VST 3 Audio Plug-Ins SDK (Format: zip, 117 MB) and doesn't contain the copy_vst2_to_vst3_sdk.bat file.
I've still tried copying and pasting the VST3 SDK folder, which is located inside the .zip folder to my tools folder in the source code, however it still doesn't work. I also ran the setup_win_for_vst3sdk.bat because it seemed right, but nothing changed.
I've tried renaming the folder and removing the underscore, as suggested in another post, which made no difference.
Any help is appreciated! -
@deadlycopter Have you enabled the VST3 plugin support checkbox in project preferences?
-
@d-healey yep, I saw this recommendation on another thread, yet it didn't change anything.
-
@deadlycopter You don't need to copy the contents of the included zip file, just extract it directly in the SDK folder. You should end up with this structure:
-
@d-healey thank you so so much! It worked.
One more thing though, when I try to compile, I get this message:
Error when saving: Can't open resource file: F:\Users\deadlycopter\Documents\HISE Projects\Test2\Binaries\Source\Images\balanceKnob_200.png
I haven't used an image filed named that in the project, so I assume it's a part of HISE, but it just isn't in that folder. -
@deadlycopter It's not part of HISE as far as I'm aware. Search your project folder for any references to that file and try cleaning the build folder.
-
@d-healey I didn't find anything with any reference to those files, so I ended up making my own, which worked. Then I compiled and I got
Cannot open include file: ipp.h
but I fixed that by disabling IPP, but now, after about a minute of exporting, I'm getting the error message:
F:\Users\deadlycopter\Program Files\HISE-develop\JUCE\modules\juce_audio_plugin_client\VST3\juce_VST3_Wrapper.cpp(68,11): error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'pluginterfaces/vst2.x/vstfxstore.h': No such file or directory [F:\Users\deadlycopter\Documents\HISE Projects\Test2\Binaries\Builds\VisualStudio2022\Degrader_VST3.vcxproj]
Sorry that I'm being such a problem, but I'd love to get this to work.
-
@deadlycopter You still got the VST3 Support checkbox enabled in project preferences?
-
@d-healey yes
-
@deadlycopter Might be because you have VS on your F drive instead of your C drive. Does it work if you compile manually through VS?
-
@d-healey got the same error
Cannot open include file: 'pluginterfaces/vst2.x/vstfxstore.h': No such file or directory Degrader_VST3 F:\Users\deadlycopter\Program Files\HISE-develop\JUCE\modules\juce_audio_plugin_client\VST3\juce_VST3_Wrapper.cpp
The output did however say that 1 task succeeded while 1 failed, the failed one being Degrader_VST3.vcxproj
-
@deadlycopter How many copies of the HISE source code do you have?
-
@d-healey just the one, HISE-develop, which is correctly routed to HISE in preferences
-
@deadlycopter I'm not sure then, maybe someone else will be able to chime in with a suggestion
-
@d-healey I sure hope so. Thanks for all your help!
