Hello!
I'd like to try scgraph for making visuals in SC, but there is no
help files
or documentation(well, there is something, but not really helpful...)
Is there anybody who went through this path?
I need to know how to:
1.Compile
2.install
3.run example.
as i found out there is already pre compiled scgrph as unix binary,
so first
step may be passed(even if only help file saying that actually you
NEED to
compile it, am i right?)
second was quite hard for me...
i found some info in old forum:
- Install the Qt Mac OS X SDK dmg [1] - 117 meg or so
- open a Terminal
- do [assuming you have scgraph_osx.tgz downloaded to your desktop]:
tar xzf ./Desktop/scgraph_osx.tgz
cd scgraph
export SCGRAPH_SC_PLUGIN_PATH=/path/to/your/SuperCollider/Plugins
export SCGRAPH_PLUGIN_PATH=./lib/scgraph/plugins
./bin/scgraph
If you get any error messages that look suspicious, run
./bin/scgraph -vvv
i made it all, what next? Do i need to put some classes definitions
somewhere, as another participant of that thread said? where i
should get
them?
From another users's post:
==
then i downloaded florian's scgraph release below and added the
classes in share to sc's extensions folder.
cd into scgraph and start with ./bin/scgraph
or i did it already? ...
at least if i making command-j on GBlending i'm getting it's
definition...
Ok. What i need to do next?
Do i need to run scgraph server manually each time or SC will do it
for me?
Can i just run the example code, or i need to complete some shaman
ritual
first?
I was tryi ng with examples, and once i even got new window, which
crashed
SC after 5 seconds, but most of the time i'm getting mistakes, like
ERROR: Message 'sendMsg' not understood.

or some other...
Please, share your experience, i'm new to SC, exited about it and
want to
try everything...))
I have one more general question:
Is there any point of using scgraph? is it enough stable, or it's just
school project which will never be developed further, and will never
become
part of Supercollider distribution?
I'm sure that i'm not the only one who want to have fast opengl based
graphics inside of SC, and not to use Processing anymore...))
Thank you!
