Hello, I have a project perfectly working in Perform mode in TouchDesigner (it’s a particle system with some interactions). But, If I open the same project file with TouchPlayer it doesn’t play! It stay freezed at the 1st frame.
The very weird thing is that the previous file version is playing, but I’ve just added a border to a panel, no other changes…
P.S. it’s not the 1st time that I have strange behaviours with TouchPlayer (black screen, error on open, etc…)
Now, every little change I do I have to verify that is working on TouchPlayer… is it so buggy?
Many thanks for your help
Do you have a file you can share? It’s definitely not something that should be happening that frequently
Hi @Issimissimo,
we are not aware of such issues with TouchPlayer - please share your project, you can also do this as a private message, so we can have a look.
cheers

Thank-you all for your reply. I’ve rolled back to a previous working version, I’ve made some changes, everything was fine, but now again! I open the project in TouchDesigner ad it show my particle on startup, but on TouchPlayer it’s black. One only change from the previous version: I’ve added a text (the one that you can read “Per favore uscire dalla stanza”).
I’m happy to share my project with you.
This is the last, not working on TouchPlayer version
CVA_installazione.toe (36.1 KB)
This is the previous one, working on TouchPlayer
CVA_installazione.9.toe (36.0 KB)
Maybe I’m doing something wrong… but I really can’t undertand why TouchPlayer behave differently from TouchDesigner…
Many thanks!
Well, I’m breaking my head trying to understand what’s going on.
I’ve opened my previous working version, and I’ve seen that there was a disabled CHOP Execute (I forgot that I had enabled it in the last version), so I’ve just enabled it, saved, and booom, black screen on TouchPlayer.
I’ve disabled the CHOP again, and booom, playing on TouchPlayer.
SO, I was quite sure that this guy was the problem. To be sure I’ve enabled the CHOP again, and… BOOOM… working on TouchPlayer… 
It seem to be a random problem, wtf…
I’m getting crazy…
EDIT:
I can confirm: it’s a totally random issue.
I do a little change (a new CHOP for example) and it does not play anymore on TP.
Next I do another small change (another new CHOP for example) and it play again.
Please note that on TD it’s always working.
Is it possible to have some log, just as I would do in Unity, so to try to understand what’s going on on TP?
Many thanks for your help
Hi @Issimissimo,
confirmed - very strange. Just saved out the not working file again without any changes and it started working in TouchPlayer.
we are having a look.

Hello, any news about it? I’m not able anymore to use TouchPlayer with my project… I can save the file as many times as I want but it doesn’t play!!!
Please HELP!

Many thanks!
EDIT - I’ve moved the project file to another folder and now it seem to play again… damn… what is going on?
Hi @Issimissimo,
at the moment I can just say that we are having a look and will update here as soon as we have a solution.

I thank-you for your very appreciated reply.
Maybe, could it be a Kinect CHOP related issue?
It seems to me the issue is that the file is saved with the playbar paused. The bug is that TouchPlayer will start paused if the file is saved paused, but TouchDesigner forces it to start playing. We’re looking into this, but I think if you are careful to mark sure the playbar is playing when you save, it should avoid the issue.
