Hi

trying to get flashserver working on my mac, got 2 problems the first is that the flashserver object keeps saying it cant create. The 2nd is that i've downloaded another flashserver script just not sure on how to get it to work with pd i.e. which folder do i out it in and do i need to download another library or something.

any help appreciated

I also don't know why after working with my patch using [flashserver], by opening, reopening & opening it back again for a long time, I also got same messages "can't create flashserver object" So I have been experimenting a bit with this as well as flosc lately...
I tried to use [flashserver/flashserver 31337 1] or try [import flashserver].
However i found out that it is more to do with the port number than the actual flashserver object. Just change the port number to something like 33333 & you'll be fine. If you are using the pd-extended version, there are 2 [flashserver] externals & I just delete the one which is the older version. I still gets the message... so I either change the port number in my action script or at the pd patch. hope it helps...
you can email me if you have any question or anything you will find out while working on flashserver, as I sometimes forgets to drop by at this forum who had so many great helpful people to ask around.

ok when ever i try and create flashserver object i get the messages which can be seen in the .png i attached to my first post does anyone know how to get around this ?

what method have you tried so far?

in your patch, try to replace the [flashserver 31337 16] to something like
[flashserver 33333 1].
you can also try on a new patch & just put [flashserver]. see if it works then all you need is to add the port number other than 31337 & change the action script to match your pd port number.
