[Feature request][External] ReacTIVision TUIO client

Open rexendevar opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

So I've tried my damnedest for about an hour or so to figure out what exactly I need to do to compile an external alongside Plugdata. Unfortunately I have no idea how C++ works, nor the compiling process, so not only do I not know how to do it but I have absolutely no idea how close my attempts got me. I must now throw up my hands and say please do it for me.

I did end up building the TUIO client in question for regular puredata (and had to correct many of the developers' foolish errors along the way) but I'm now burned out on actually doing anything with it right now. Also I can't stand the regular pd interface.

Would also accept a significantly more in-depth guide on how to add my own externals so I can actually do it myself instead of floundering blind

I could build the external and load it in both pd and plugdata. (only thing I had to modify was an additional include path in the Makefile, also to create a duplicate of my libdc1394.so)

[edit: ok the external does work in pd-vanilla, but in plugdata I only see TuiClient: started listening to UDP port 3333 but no messages coming through]
