OSC In - Incoming String

Hello all,

looking if TouchDesigner is the right tool for this project, I am a little new to it although have played around in it for a couple years now.

I have an OSCIn but it is not getting any incoming strings, its possible to receive strings in Touch right? How would I go around doing that?

Thanks!

Look at OSC In DAT, it will display all incoming OSC messages. You can use the raw incoming dat rows, but it is advisable to use the scripted callbacks instead with python to use OSC messages with strings in your networks to set parameters or whatever else.

OSC Chop adds a layer of processing to turn incoming numeric data into CHOP channels, it isn’t useful for strings.

Wow, that is embarrassing.

Thank you so much!
