Windows Install (version 2.0.24.2)

WaveSharp2 on windows can be installed using a specialized installer Click HERE.

As waveSharp2 depends on Python the installer will check if python 3.9/10/11 or 3.12 can be found on your computer. If not it will help you to automatically install python 3.10 or 3.12. After python is installed (or allready present) two mandatory libraries will be installed (openCV and Numpy). The final stage of the install will create a link to python that waveSharp2 will use in a file called pythonpath.ini (created by the installer in the waveSharp directory), after that you can launch waveSharp2.

If you want to check if the file you downloaded is the correct file below are the SHA256 signatures. You can check these yourself with: https://emn178.github.io/online-tools/sha256_checksum.html

Linux Install (version 2.0.24.2)

To install waveSharp2 on linux first download the release-files Click HERE
Unzip these in the directory you want to use waveSharp2 from.

As waveSharp2 depends on Python you need to have python 3.9/10/11 or 3.12 installed. Next to that you need to have the OpenCV-python and Numpy library(1.26.4) installed.
These can be installed (if Python has been installed) by:
pip3 install opencv-python
and
pip3 install numpy==1.26.4

Now open the file called pythonpath.ini from the directory where you stored the waveSharp2 files.
This file (at release should read) :
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
libpython3.10.so
The 1st line refers to the default location where python's DLLs in linux are stored, the 2nd line should be changed to reflect the version of python you installed (by default set at 3.10).

Before launching waveSharp you can check if the 1st line is correct by using the terminal(make sure you use the proper version number):
whereis libpython3.10.so
This should show something like: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.10.so
If another directory shows than make sure to change the 1st line of pythonpath.ini accordingly.

After this waveSharp2 can be launched.
