Description
hello.
we're trying (with the deadline of a scheduled pander/uncle-s performance) to get the new fancy version of maw.animata-space going.
to catch u up:
good news:
-what's fancy in this version, you can read the animata .nmt file into max, and it'll do everything else needed to let you start composing poses (which you place into different colored regions on the map) right away.
bad news:
-has not been tested on any other computer by yours' truly, and even i mine i didn't debug it so heavily.
how you can help:
for the moment, the only other person who's tried the patch is sinan and it crashes his max every time.
i need this patch to be tested on other machines, and crash logs (if any) posted as updates to this post.
what to do:
-get svn for mawLib going (please help one another if only a couple are left out)
-update to the latest revision (#315)
-try to open maw.animata-space (/svn/mawLib/dist/mawLib/mawLib-Perform/animata-space/maw.animata-space.maxpat)
-see if it crashes max
-if so, send me log; if not, say it didn't.
thanks,
a

Updated by Ander Pander 955 days ago
- Status changed from New to Feedback
-I updated svn to 315 on the 17" Macbook Pro.
-When i initially opened animata-space.maxpat, without having file paths set to aLib and such, I WAS able to open without crashing Max. Though, of course, necessary components where missing. See attached 'Pander_animata-space_MaxWindow_01'.
-Then, when I did set the file paths, close Max and then reopen animata-space.maxpat, it did crash before the Max window even opened. See attached 'PanderCrashREport_animata-space_01'

thanks for the report pander.
so what would really help me now is if you figure out what in your search path makes the patch crash.
sinan, you could also help me with this.
starting by taking everything out of your search path; according to andrea's test, that seems to keep it from crashing. then add 1/2 of the contents of your search path and try again; if it doesn't crash, then add 1/2 of what's left, etc. if not, then take out 1/2 and track it down.
that doable?
as for your missing files, the CNMAT exteranals and the LObjects are both required by mawLib. you can find both in the goodies folder of MATA (make anything talk to anything) class.

-Animata-space.maxpat will open with all aLib folders ACCEPT 'ali.pattr-interp'. 'ali.pattr-interp.' causes the crash (see PanderCrashReport_animata-space_02).
-Also, I've put CNMAT externals and LObject in the path, though I still get pink in Max Window. (see Pander_animata-space_MaxWindow_02)

your errors in the max window indicate that:
1. you don't have the LObjects in your search path (LScale is one of the LObjects)
2. you're not using the latest maw.animata-space (the latest doesn't rely on dot.properties).
i'll look into the crash....

OK,
new version posted, should get rid of the dot.* missing files.
as for the crash, can you (and anyone else) tell me if you can open ali.pattr-interp on your computer in max, on its own? it's in the "for spaces" folder of aLib.
