@oid it is the font size even before loading any patch.. for example in file-open. that is fixed by edit-font.

I will rtfm and change the order and figure out what is going on - thank you for the tip.

ps. The font issue is solved by Edit - Font - set font.

"see https://msp.ucsd.edu/Pd_documentation/x2.htm#s2.1.1

search there for "HiDPI screens"" - by a helpful soul over on the puredata Github page.

ps. And the font etc . is fine in PlugData and PurrData.

The library issue is resolved by adding mrpeach/ before udpreceive and unpackosc. FIXED

I am now able to edit the startup path. I used the .exe from the msp.ucsd.edu page rather than the puredata.info page (which initially crashed). i have not checked that one again. FIXED

The font issue however remains. NOT FIXED

Also not fixed is my patch itself I get:

test.pd 15 0 16 0 (???->???) connection failed
test.pd 16 0 17 0 (???->???) connection failed
test.pd 17 0 18 0 (???->???) connection failed

test.pd 19 0 4 0 (???->???) connection failed
test.pd 18 1 20 0 (???->???) connection failed
test.pd 20 0 5 1 (???->???) connection failed

Here is my patch:

#X connect 19 0 4 0;
#X connect 18 1 20 0;
#X connect 20 0 5 1;

I am trying to have a tone play at a fixed frequency and listen to port 8000 for information via osc. The tone playing itself works. The communication does not. I dont really know what I am doing here with the pure data code, so please bear with me (hopefully it is OK since the patch is very short).

Thank you !

Hi,

Thank you again. Deken-plugin is installed by default now in PD, so when I installed mrpeach, it was using help-find externals just like you described.

I will try to play around a bit more and see if I can post more informative errors.

I will also try an earlier version.

Thank you, David.

1. The font methods do not change anything.

2. If it is about security, usually I get a warning. Here, I just get object-not-detected errors. The library is in the right place. The osc library also does not work. If I go to externals and type osc or mrpeach, it does not show me that it is installed.

3. I am unable to add anything to the path window.

Is this something to do with 0.55 being new ? Perhaps older versions might work ?

Hello,

1. The font in the open window for example, is unreadably small. I tried using -font 18 etc. when calling pd.exe, it did not change anything.

2. I downloaded the mr. peach external, it is in my externals directory in the standard location. I tried to include that in the pd.exe call manually, it still does not detect the object. Does it need to be compiled ? I already see .dlls. in the folder.

3. When I try to edit or add a new path in the preferences window so that mr peach can be loaded, I am not able to enter anything there at all.

I am using the latest pd 0.55 on windows 11.

Thanks, Suresh

ps. I did get a basic tone playing successfully. If that helps in answering the question. thank you !
