Thanks a lot, you rock!

Thanks to @tommyflanagan there is now a VintageTonic (for Microtonic) bank in the Soniccharge folder in the NKS User Library, and also NKS with previews for the Synplant 2 factory patches (they still could do with some tagging but I haven't had time to do that)

Also he sent me NKS for several GForce plugins - in the GForce folder of course

thanks Tommy

@Kymeia there is a bug in the common library, at Inertia Sound Systems / Granulizer 2.

I downloaded your presets few days ago and... they didn't work. So, i check the code with a text editor, and i found this:

There is a written location path (twice), which is ok for Mac users (because is the same path for everyone) but not ok for Windows users (since Windows have different path).

The problem is even more complicated, since the Windows path is "C:\Users\user_name\Documents\Inertia Sound Systems\Plugin Presets\Granulizer 2\Presets" and as you know, every user has a different name.

So, as long as the plugin use the default location, there can be no common solution for everyone. This problem can be overwrite only by change plugin's default location, with another location, common to everyone.

The only way to achieve this is, by using the path "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Inertia Sound Systems\Plugin Presets\Granulizer 2\Presets". To do so, every user who has the plugin and want its NKS, has to go to plugin options and change the presets path. Otherwise, every Windows user has to create his own NKS presets.

I’m not really a programmer, but could the current username not just be obtained from Windows’ related environment variable %username% ? At least, if I’m going to my Win command prompt and enter echo %username%, it returns the actual name correctly. Just an idea.

It is a good point as an idea, but i'm afraid it will not work, because when you save the presets, they get automatically the user name.

Even if you edit the files manually one by one, with an advanced text or hex editor, it won't work. I just tried it earlier, i replaced my "user name" with "public", using the Notepad ++. The plugin open correctly but the presets are not working, it always returns the default preset, no matter which one i load.

OK, I see your point.

B.Minor

Hmm, one last idea: after saving out the preset, the whole default path “C:\users\public” could be manually replaced by the variable %public%. Depending on the country your Windows version was released for, you might not hit the right spot when inserting „Public“ just like that. For example, in the German Win version, “\Public\“ will always point to „\Offentlich\“ (and „\User\“ equals to „\Benutzer\“). So the general use of variables might fix the problem. But I‘m not able to test that, so it will just be a theory 😏.

Sorry about that, tbh their plugins were buggy for ages in KK and I couldn’t save anything that worked even for me for a long time, so I counted my blessings to get this far. Would they work if resaved on Windows as long as people use the default locations?
