Has anyone else managed to get this working in Decent Sampler?

I installed it, but when I try to load the patches, I get a message saying that it failed to load.

I opened the standalone version of Decent Sampler and followed the instructions in the unzipped VT - Auras Lichen directory.

Once you have it installed open Decent Sampler and simply drag the '.dslibrary' file on to the interface and it will work it's magic!

If you want to keep your libraries in a specific location, make sure the '.dslibrary' file is in that directory BEFORE importing!

The samples played fine in the standalone version. I closed that and opened Decent Sampler as an instrument in Sonar, clicked the Browse button in DS, loaded the VT - Auras Lichen library, selected a preset and it played fine. Every preset I picked loaded and played okay.

If it were me, here is what I would check. Dragging the VT - Auras Lichen.dslibrary file from the unzipped folder you downloaded onto the Decent Sampler window should (it did for me) copy the sample library to the default sample library location that is set in File>Preferences>General Preferences section of Decent Sampler. In my case it is I:\Samples (see image below). There should be a VT - Auras Lichen folder in that location that contains the presets, samples, and IR libraries. Clicking the Decent Sampler Browse>File Browser should show the library there. Load that and the new presets should show in Decent Sampler Choose Preset window.

That did the trick. What I had been doing was trying to load it directly from the .ZIP via the File/Load menu.

One of the file types that the dialog supposedly accepts is .ZIP so I thought it would work.

Incidentally, if dragging the .dslibrary file to the Decent Sampler windows doesn't automatically install the sample libraries in the designated Decent Sampler default sample library location, copying/moving the entire unzipped folder containing the .dslibrary file/s to the default sample library directory should do the trick. I have had to do this with other Decent Sample libraries.
