Hey, whats about this "autobuild"-version?!? (I'm on win, just if that's important)
http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/
Is it already usable? -Since the previous version 0.42.5-ext (21 Nov 2010 - I guess that is/was the most recent one) disappeared from that site..
(the official "non-autobuild"-download is still 0.42.5 but not from November '10 - jet younger..)
...So does anyone know some details or when it is finished?! Will the processing-order be visible this time, or whats new?!?

Bye
Flipp

Hi Flipp,
The build farm you are looking to is for Pd-extended and not the Vanilla.

http://puredata.info/community/projects/software/pure-data
Here is the Pd Vanilla which was uploaded lately and it's in 0.43. For me (on Mac) IS NOT usable though . The sound doesn't work, so it's obviously buggy at the moment.

I have 0.43 vanilla working on Windows Vista.
To get it working with ASIO4all it is best to find your registry settings with a current working version before installing. To do this go to audio settings in pd or pdx and set your input and output devices. then click on save all settings. Then go to the registry editor and look at these audioindev1 and audiooutdev1 make note of these. The keys are in \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Pd or pdx. also make a note of the rest of the keys. If you want to use GEM with Vanilla you will also have to copy MSVCR71.dll to your new pd/bin/directory. I'm not sure if the ASIO4all thing was only with my machine or if it is common for all windows installs as I have a creative labs ASIO driver stuck in my system that loads and tells me there are no creative devices installed then ASIO4all loads. Before I set the devices in the registry ASIO4All would not load. I also use the -asio startup flag. Of course you will have to add your ext paths and libraries. MSVCR71.dll can be found in your /pd/bin directory if you have a previous version of GEM installed. I have a registry entry each for pd and pdx. I'm not sure if this is the norm. Anyways 0.43 seems to be working good so far. I have only tested it with externals GEM and ggee/~moog.

geo_ker, is there a similar thing as the registry on a mac? If not you might want to look into using the startup flags to get the audio working. I'm not sure but I'm guessing the audio problems are a pulseaudio problem it has been updated since the previous version the flags you probably want to look at are audioapi, audiobuf, audioindev1, audiooutdev1, blocksize, callback, noaudioout, noaudioin. If you can somehow get the values of those from a working version of pd I would imagine that your audio might work if it is of course the same problem. It's worth a try anyways.

Thanks guys,
I recently found that version by myself but since I need some of the "extended"-objects, it seems I have to wait for 0.43-extended to be finished...
I'm really missing some fast storage-object like [any] or [pp] (...) in the vanilla-build. Generally I wonder why some vanilla-objects are so slow compared to their "extended-twins"..
The autobuild-version for windows doesn't have this "green arrow" beside its link...(is someone using linux?! -plz try and report) I guess that means it's not complete or something like that.. Nevertheless I tried it, but it looks quite "raw" and not so eye-friendly - just not like the 0.42.5-ext....
