Hey @k3XX it seems like I can’t save or read my mapping setup. Tried different approaches. Using preivew-0263.

What is the workflow for this? Or is it currently not working?

Would love to use it, seems like a great contribution!

Hello, did you tried it with vvvv 5.2?

No, and unfortunatley I can’t switch back now to 5.2.

I only tested it with 5.2.

I will test it with 6.0 when it releases but until then sorry but I don’t have time to test with preview versions.

Also there might be breaking changes until the release version so it would be kinda pointless work too, especially that preview versions are not recommended for production use.

sure, totally understand. thanks for the response!

@timpernagel Hi, I just briefly tested it with the 6.2 release and it seems to be working fine for me. Does it works for you with the release version?

Just checked here with 6.2. but still struggling to save a setup and load it later.

What is the supposed order to:

  • configure a file for saving my setup
  • do my adjustments
  • saving and reloading my setup

?

Maybe you can make quick list of steps, with images or a quick screencapture.

I should make a proper tutorial sometime but until then here is a quick demo video. I hope it helps.

@timpernagel I was using Mapper with 6.2 yesterday on a different server and loading the map wasn’t working indeed. It was working on my machines so I didn’t understood your problem.

I don’t know why the environment influences this feature but it uses a quick and dirty way of serialization which I should change anyway for something proper. I hope I will have a bit of time to fix it next week.

@timpernagel Pushed an update which should fix it

Hey @k3XX
Thanks for that awesome tool.
I noticed that in 7.0 preview builds there’s something wrong with the parameters names

I found the reason for that:

The ImGui widgets Label input pin now is Optional<String>. It was String at some point.

this leads to some errors inside the VL.Mapper nodes:

I am wondering if we find a way to make vvvv pick the + [String] somehow. This could get tricky though.

Another way of solving the issue is by replacing those with + [String] manually. Would of course require to build a new NuGet. @k3XX shall I make a pull request?

we fixed that on our end.

@evgen_rzv @gregsn Sorry for the late reply, my forum notifications got lost somewhere.
It looks like it’s fixed in the 7.0 release build, at least it works for me.

@k3XX @gregsn thank you, gonna check that soon!

Hello Guys,

I m diving back into this nice nugget,but I got the same problem with the load of the cache files…

I can record the bin files for the configuration, save the cache file but as soon as I want to load it back without the editor… I’ve got a black screen, I followed step by step the the video tutorial…

There an error inside the cache node…

Also, I dont know if its related but when i save the cache files in the folder of my choice, its not save in it but next to it… sems to have a path problem… (In my snapShot I moved them in the directory manualy after)

Was it it fixed in early version? Im in the lastest previews…

Thanks you for your help

@Raphael Can you double check using 7.0 stable? Could be we broke something in the previews and would be good to know if we did.

Good morning @Elias

Just checked the 7.0 stable, same story there…
