FluCoMa for SC v3.14?

The “News in 3.14” mentions that the Boost Libraries were updated and suggest the user “Go to GitHub - flucoma/flucoma-sc: Fluid Corpus Manipulation plugins for Supercollider to check for a compatible version.” However, there’s no information stating what version would be compatible. I tried both the stable current release from Jan 7 and the latest nightly and both still crash the scsynth. Does anyone know if there is a working FluCoMa version? (Tested Mac OS 15.5)

IIRC there isn’t one (yet). Maybe this should be clarified/rephrased in the changelog/News… for now, best to keep an installation of sc 3.13 for use with flucoma.

Do we know what version of the Boost library was used to build 3.14? I can try to at least build FluCoMa with that version and report whether it works or not.

I just compiled flucoma-sc with SC3.15.0-dev sources (MacOS 15.5) and it seems to be working correctly, scsynth is not crashing!

I pinged the flucoma-sc devs about it, but they haven’t published a new release yet → https://github.com/flucoma/flucoma-sc/issues/149

In the meantime it is also possible to build flucoma by oneself.

Not at a computer, but there are 1.0.9 pre-release binaries on GitHub which should work with SC 3.14, you can find a thread about it on the FluCoMa discord as well!

The 1.0.9 pre-release does appear to work with 3.14. I haven’t thoroughly tested, but it doesn’t immediately crash the server. It looks like work is being done to make this more stable long-term, so I’ll mark this as the Solution as it is the most straightforward way to move forward with both programs currently. Thanks to all for your input.
