Hey thanks for your comment. This is the first I've heard of this issue, so let me see if I can help you!

You will have to register each "disc" one time - but after that there should be no trouble. Try using the "register" button rather than the window that pops up when you start it.

Try this:

Start a blank project
Load GuyEngine
Close the register window without entering your key
Click the register button
Enter your key
Change to disc 2
Repeat until all 4 discs are registered.
Test each disc to make sure sound is coming out
Close FL Studio

Now any project that is using GuyEngine - regardless of number of instances - should be registered permanently.

Let me know if that helps!

OOH it's probably just that I wasn't aware the discs needed seperate registration, that's a little unintuitive so it might be worth clarifying that in the install instructions as it lead to a slightly confusing first impression. Had a lot of fun with the plugin yesterday.

Haha it's actually in the installation instructions that are included with the download! You're right that it's unintuitive, unfortunately I'm bound by the limitations of the program that I used to make the plugin. Please feel free to reach out if any other issues arise!

Ahh my mistake, I was looking at itch for install instructions.

Might be an idea to ammend the line "It says you will receive a "steam key" - but the key is actually to register the plugin when you run it, nothing to do with Steam." to add something about activating the discs separately and set expectations about how regtistering works more clearly as I made my assumption based on this.

That's good advice. I'll update the description so it's more transparent.

As for the steam key, itch unfortunately won't let me change that, for reasons unknown 😕

Oh no the way you explain that it's not a steam key is fine, I get why itch has it labeled as such, hopefully they add the option for changing it at some point though.

Having worked with it a little more I wanted to let you know this plugin feels like exactly what I'm looking for when I normally load up a soundfont and has the perfect aditional effects that I'd want as default on my instruments. I could probably have a soundfont with equivalent sounds but having a VST that loads up all these samples by default with a nice array of effects and adjustments will probably save me a lot of time so thank you.
