Hiding Resource Files

Developer VST 3 SDK
1

Hi all,

I’m just wondering if there is a best practice for hiding accompanying resource files etc. When I’ve installed plugins before I’ve never noticed any additional files. Are these stored elsewhere out of view, or is there a way of packaging everything up in a single vst file?

Thanks all
James

Just a bump. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I don’t think you can. VST3 are bundles (folders) and the resources are within the bundle. You would need to compile your resources into your code and I don’t know how to do that. I think the modern day approach is to draw your view in code and forgot about bitmaps altogether.
