Installation problem in SOFA-Unity3d Basic Renderer

[dhananjayjha100]

I have installed unity editor version: 2022.3.5f1, and SOFA v23.06, I followed all the steps given in the installation guide, but I am confused on the step:

Copy the SOFA dll libraries inside: /myUnityProject/Assets/SofaUnity/Plugins/Native/x64 (for windows)

What I initially did is to go to build folder, copy all the files with the extension .dll and paste it into the above path, but unity crashes for some reason whenever I open a demo scene, so I am not able to understand, what is the right approach Can anyone help me in this.

Hi,

Do you have any crash log?
could you check if you have the SofaPhysicsAPI.dll in your build directory.
If not, you need to compile it (activate it at the CMake stage). Also it has not yet been tested with the SOFa v23.06. It might be safer to use the v22.12 if possible.

Best regards

Hello, I have also used binary release of SOFA v23.06. May I know which files with the suffix DLL have you copied? Can you provide me with this path? thanks

@CugAgo , thanks for your help. I have copied all the files with the suffix DLL that were present in the bin folder. The exact path is: C:\libsofa\sofabuild\bin
