Controller objects - Cant get it working!

#1

Hello :slight_smile:

After long time not using controller object, I am trying to use it again and I think I need to have reminder on how it works. I get this from the log;
Using controller object: /Users/jakobskouborg/Documents/Axoloti OWN/subs/ctrl.axp
Unable to created controller for : /Users/jakobskouborg/Documents/Axoloti OWN/subs/ctrl.axp

. I have a local folder called this:
/Users/jakobskouborg/Documents/Axoloti OWN/subs/

Inside that folder I put the controller object like this:
/Users/jakobskouborg/Documents/Axoloti OWN/subs/ctrl.axp

And in the preferences window I set ip up like this;

But it is not working. Could someone point out what I am doing wrong?

I did look through my own tutorial and followed it, but I think I might have missed something here. I also tried following my own notes about it, but with no luck either.

Ahh got it working..... Stupid mistake again.... How can I delete this thread?

#3

i think instead of deleting this thread it could be nice for new users, if you would explain what you did to solve it.

#4

Think its the path to the file;

I have my files located just like this
~documents/axoloti_1_0_12/objects/controllers/patchchangeall.axs

so I don't have the full path (macosx)

edit: and no file extention

Well I did a stupid mistake and not following the tutorial to the point. There is all ready a good description oh now to do it.

BUT yeah maybe someone else falls for the same problem.

My mistake was that I wrote the whole file path on the computer into tje controller object reference field.. Like this.;
/Users/jakobskouborg/Documents/Axoloti OWN/subs/ctrl/ctrl.axp

It should have been like this:

the ctrl/ctrl.axs is located in the local folder like this:
/Users/jakobskouborg/Documents/Axoloti OWN/subs/Objects/ctrl/ctrl.axs

You only have to make the refencre to the position in the local folder NOT the filepath..
