Dynamic Simulation - C++ backend could not be loaded on system with AVX2 support about pyfiberamp HOT 5 CLOSED

The installation should work now. One of the regex conditions in .gitignore was actually capturing the pyd file and that's why it wasn't showing on GitHub. I have no idea how I could've missed that. Anyway, I'll close this issue after testing the installation tomorrow on a different computer and if you get it working, too. Thanks a lot for the feedback!

Thanks for the heads-up!

The problem is that setup.py does not copy the compiled extension file to the install location in site-packages. I'll try to fix this as soon as possible. Meanwhile, there are two workarounds: 1) You can manually copy the "fiber_simulation_pybindings.cp36-win_amd64.pyd" file from the download folder to the pyfiberamp/dynamic subfolder in site-packages. 2) You can remove the current installation (just delete the PyFiberAmp folder in site-packages) and then reinstall using developer installation with the command "python setup.py develop". This creates a link in site-packages without actually copying any files. Just don't delete the originally downloaded files in that case. If you're using the Anaconda distribution, the site-packages folder is typically located in C:\Users\USERNAME\Anaconda3\Lib.

The funny thing is that I had this same problem myself and specifically checked on one computer that I had it fixed before pushing the new version to GitHub. However, I was able to reproduce the problem on a different computer today so there's still definitely something wrong.

Thanks for the help. I tried the develop installation, but that didn't work. When I went to try the first way, I couldn't find the .pyd in the repository, in my download or on GitHub. Maybe that's the issue?

Thanks, it works perfectly now! Ran setup.py install with no issues. Love the project!

Great! I got it working for me as well, so I'm closing this issue now.
