Here's another Lua module for you. This speeds up the development of

making simple to moderately complex custom matrix processing objects

in Jitter. Along with the source code, there's are 2 example patches

and scripts. The code is well commented so it should be a

straightforward affair to rolling your own. For complex objects

you're probably better off just making a Jitter object, but if you

want to quicky prototype a video filter or mesh processor, this is

Example 1 is a "solarizing" filter for video matrices

Example 2 is a blackhole type particle system.

Damn dude. I really need to sit and spend a lot more time with your 

Lua objects. This makes me wish I had some free time....

Am I doing something wrong here? I get this message in my max window:

"error calling bang: attempt to call a nil value"

Hard to say. Sounds like either the sccript didn't load or there is

no function ban() in the script. Can you provide more information?

Ah. Sorry. the list of error messages got long, and I forgot to look at the start of it. Seems like I haven't put things in the right places.

"lua pcall error (string require ("mop")..."):1:module 'mop' not found:

I've put all the .lua files in "MaxMSP 4.6/Cycling'74/luascripts/", and all the .so-files in "MaxMSP 4.6/Cycling'74/luamods/". I must apologise if this is described in the docs.

I got most of your other examples running, though, and it seems like some really useful externals, even though I'm not clever enough to understand what they're doing yet. Thanks!

You're almost there. The scripts can go anywhere, but the modules

have to be in a very specific spot to work. The reccommended layout

You need this on your system MaxMSP 4.6/Cycling'74/lua/luamods/ .

Cool,
You're almost there.  The scripts can go anywhere, but the modules
have to be in a very specific spot to work.  The reccommended layout
goes like this:

c74/lua/
                 luamods/
                 luascripts/

You need this on your system MaxMSP 4.6/Cycling'74/lua/luamods/  .
Sorry for any confusion in the docs.

Damn it, Wesley, you've given me incentive to learn yet another language.

I second this emotion.  From a cursory glance these appear to be 
incredibly powerful objects.

That did it. I didn't have an enclosing lua-folder. Thanks a lot;)

The good news is that the more of 'em you learn, the easier it gets.
