Scene Loading 2: Engine Loading in TouchDesigner
Learn how to build a component that uses TouchEngine to load scenes in separate processes.
Engines let you run heavy scenes without slowing down the main process, and keep crashes isolated from the rest of the project.
This one gets into some more Python but it goes through things line by line so no prior Python experience is needed.
