@Lindon thanks for the insight, I didn't realise that it'd be such a challenge. Could you point me in the direction to achieve what I'm going for? Any tutorials, threads, anything helps! Thanks!

Hey! I am currently trying to make a saturation/distortion plugin that activates only under a certain threshold and has all the parameters of a compressor (attack, knee, ratio, etc...). I feel like it should be an easy task, but as I've only just started learning scriptnode, I've been running in circles for the past week and haven't gotten anywhere. Would anyone have an idea that could help? I've already gotten the distortion to work, it's just the dynamics that are being a pain. Any help is appreciated!

@d-healey I sure hope so. Thanks for all your help!

@d-healey just the one, HISE-develop, which is correctly routed to HISE in preferences

@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

@d-healey yes

@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.

@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.

@d-healey yep, I saw this recommendation on another thread, yet it didn't change anything.

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!
