Cool VL Viewer forum

Yes, starting from the fmod library dir works as a workaround, until i fix the linking issue.

Basically what happens is, that the library is not found from the bundle, because it is not linked with the correct flags/path.

Now digging into the CMake files to find out where it goes wrong.

Thanks, guys, for all the work put into tracking this down

While you happy hackers are at work, I'll stick to 1.26.8.8, which works flawlessly

Well, there are a few bugs too (heh) but none are serious (i.e. no crashes) so I'll post them elsewhere.

Looking forward to see if you're able to compile a new version soon Good work!

yay, got it:

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac ... ool.1.html

Basically seems some stuff isn't properly setup for the binary, so things fail:

So, this fixes it:
cd CoolVLViewer.app/Contents/MacOS
install_name_tool -change ./libfmodex.dylib @executable_path/../Resources/libfmodex.dylib Cool\ VL\ Viewer

Now the viewer finds the libs on startup and runs just fine.

Please, Kathrine, let me know which files need to be changed for MacOS-X in the sources.

Perfect, thank you

1.26.8.80 does the trick! Yay Thanks so much

Interestingly, this version does not allow VBO (and Stream VBO) to be enabled. I wonder is my graphics card that continues the long process of melting down further and further until no more options are left... because that certainly started to happen about a year ago, when atmospheric shading stopped working (no fault of the Cool VL Viewer, it's really my graphics card!)

Hm. No. 1.26.8.8 allowed VBO/STream VBO without problems. I guess I'll add this as a separate thread!
