| == How to control Unity with Max/Msp ==
| |
| ''' <br>
| |
| In this tutorial, you will get the basic ideas of interactive connection between Unity and Max/Msp, using open sound control (OSC).<br>
| |
| You will try to control noise deformation intensity of a mesh object as an example.
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| There are some materials you need to test this tutorial.
| |
| <br>
| |
| Please download and install following plugins before you start;

| == Make a OSC bridge on Max/Msp ==
| |
|
| |
| In this section, you will make a OSC sender part on Max/Msp.
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| 1.Open a new patcher from top menu bar. You can also make a new patcher with shortcuts "command" + "K".
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| 2.Press "F" key to make a number box for float. This will be the input of the noise contoroller.
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| 3.Press "M" key to make a message node and type '''"/test $1"''' and connect with the number box.<br>
| |
| '''"/test"''' is an identifier of the osc message. You can rename whatever you want, but you should pay attention '''not to forget "/"''' before the name of identifier.<br>
| |
| Also, '''"$1"''' is required to import external value.
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| 4.Press "B" to make a bang node and press "N" and type "OpenSoundControl".
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| 5.Press "N" and type '''"udpsend 127.0.0.1 2222"'''.<br>
| |
| '''"127.0.0.1"''' is a IP address, which is used to test this setup '''internally'''.<br>
| |
| If you try this tutorial with multiple computers, '''check the IP address of a computer for Unity project.'''<br>
| |
| "2222" is a name of port. You can define any integer, but make sure that '''you are using the same port number for Max patch and Unity'''.
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| 6.Connect nodes together like the picture below;<br>
