Kinect - Windows 8 - Jit.freenect.grab
Hi guys,
As stated in previous posts I am about to embark on a masters final project which will be to test theories of immersion by creating a simple gesture game.
I have got my hands on a ms kinect but as I am running windows 8 am a bit concerned on how it will work with maxmsp. I noticed on the jit.freenect.grab it states that,
"The latest version of jit.freenect.grab is “Release Candidate 5″, which was released on 2012-3-7. The object requires Max 5 with Jitter and only runs on Intel Macs with OS 10.5 or later."
Is there are way of making the kinect work with max/msp on windows 8?
All the best,
J
The dp.kinect external is much more featured than freenect and still being updated by diablodale. Have you checked that?
Thanks for the reply,
Nope I have not checked that out, I will do right now.

Hey Joe J
Your post is the only reference I can find for this messa that Kinect+Msp+CrappyWindows8 is... is there any hope for us? I'm working around the workarounds, but I don't know if someone ever succeeded.
Thanks!
