.tox inside a clone

General TouchDesigner Discussion

I have a very simple network: a clone master and a clone (see attachment).
Inside both containers i have a .tox, which should be loaded from path given by a custom parameter of the clonemaster. That should allow me to have a different .tox in each clone.

My problem: the .tox file in the clone is not loaded on start, it loads only when i click on the Re-init button of the toxcontainer inside container2. What do I miss?
thnx and greetings knut

Hi @knut,

when setting or changing the External .tox parameter of a Component, the specified tox is only automatically loaded upon start of the .toe file.

It might work better if you create a Replicator setup - in the callback script for the Replicator COMP you can reinit the network of each created COMP manually.

Hope this helps
Best

Hi Markus
thnx for your fast reply. Ok, I will go for a replicator.

in the callback script for the Replicator COMP you can reinit the network of each created COMP manually
I am not 100% sure that I understand how to do this. Could you give me a short example please?
