Hi,
After eventually getting Cmake to run on my computer (mac). I tried to build the vst3_sdk sample plugins and followed your video:
However, when my cmake finishes building, it does not generate an XCode project at all. It does generate some different files to the ones I see in your build folder (4:40 in your video).
I have: base, CMakeFiles, public,sdk and vstgui4 the same as you, but I dont have a CMakeScripts file
I also have the following folders (which you dont have): bin, lib, VST3 and pluginterfaces
Furthermore I also have a few files: cmake_install.cmake, compile_commands.json and Makefile
Have I missed something vital? Why have I not got an XCode file?
(I have looked in all the folders and there are some .vst3 files in teh VST3 folder but I cant find the xcode file anywhere)
I am fairly new to command line building and developing on a mac, however I have used C++ before and develop apps in android studio using java.
Thanks

The CMake command line requires the exact tense for the "-G" -- it must be upper case.
The lower case "-g" version creates a sub-set of the files. What case are you using?

I have used the upper case -G.
The exact input can be seen in the command line set below (the line is in bold):

I have tried deleting the files and rebuilding, but get the same each time

Hmm - OK that is weird. This is what it I am getting (and we are on identical XCode and MacOS target versions):

Afterwards, my /build folder looks like this:
The .xcodeproj file is there along with the others. I am wondering if you have the .xcodeproj extension hidden? Or you are hiding those files (a la Windows)?
Otherwise, you should have the same output as I do above. If you are still having issues, you might want to try the VST3 Dev Forum here:

The only time I've see incomplete CMake runs is with the lower case "g."
