Thank you for providing the log. I realized the plugin started to fail from OBS 30.0.
The new version 2.0.5 should work. The direct links to the package are below.
obs-text-pthread-2.0.5-obs28-macos-x86_64.pkg (This should work with OBS 28, 29, 30, and hopefully 31.)
obs-text-pthread-2.0.5-obs28-macos-x86_64.zip

Thanks norihiro, but both installers go through the installation, but when I look for it in OBS I don't see it. Perhaps something I'm not doing right?

So sorry. I went to get the log analyzer to send you the current log. I saw in the third party plugins list "OBS text - pthread" was listed, so then I went back to OBS and it was there to use. It's a mystery to me why I didn't see it before now. I tried many Mac installers, maybe a computer restart as I came back to it from a busy day? Thank You for your quick response in trying to fix this issue.

Hey norihiro! Great job on the plugin.

Working awesome for me on Arch, and a much better experience than FreeType2, but I have to ask... is there a reason Pthread is missing the text color gradient feature that FreeType 2 has. This is the only thing missing to be able to remake my text from my Windows layout.

I chose to use Pthread over FreeType 2 because of the outline color selector feature, which is missing from FreeType 2.

I'm sorry for my late response.
The reason was just because the color gradient didn't fit my aesthetic.
Depending on your outline color, I think you can make the gradient by the shader filter.

Thank You for this plugin. However, I can't seem to install it. I'm on an intel Mac. I tried both installers for 86....I might also not know how to find it if it was installed correctly. Properties, filters or anywhere. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. UPDATE: It works now that I chose the OBS 28 version. Thanks! Update #2. This is truly awesome! Sometimes I feel left behind because most software is for a PC and I did try lots of work arounds. but was unsuccessful. Thanks x 3 !

I can understand that feeling as I mainly use Fedora (a Linux distribution).
When you see something wrong on OBS Studio in the future, a log would be helpful. On the menu, select Help > Log Files > Show Log Files. It shows the plugin is correctly loaded or has failed.
