load_module example

[coderofsalvation]

interesting, for some reason this doesn't load any sunsynth on linux.
I tried looking at radiant voices, but everything seems similar.
Basically I cloned this repo, and tried to run this script (fragment):

running myscript.py test.sunsynth gives me the following output:

What i tried:

• adding encode('utf-8') and encode('utf8')
• loading an empty .sunvox before calling load_module(...)

Any tips appreciated

Looks like you need a call to connect_module after load_module, to connect the loaded sunsynth's module to the output module. I'm not at a desktop while writing this so can't test or offer a line to copy and paste, but hopefully this helps.

hm I tried connect_module(0,1) (sorry for not mentioning it) since I noticed you doing it in your code as well.
It is however not the audio output I'm going for, but reading the parameters from the module.
The (sunsynth) module is not appearing however in the for-loop.

If I load the sunsynth in sunvox, and save it into 'empty.sunvox', then the modulename of the sunsynth does appear in the for-loop. Could it be that load_module does not set a modulename?

Hmm. Ok, I will try to look at this during the daytime then and see what I can do to help.

This is a bug. It should accept a filename. Let's keep this issue open until it's fixed.

Workaround for now is to open the file and pass in the open file object:

with open(file, 'rb') as f:
    slot.load_module(f, 5, 5, 5)

aha thank you very much for clearing this up.
Thanks for the workaround.
