CsoundVST has been separated into two components:

CsoundVST, now just a Csound VST plugin and a simple GUI front end without Python capabilities, which persists in CVS but is no longer included in binary packages hosted on SourceForge.

CsoundAC (for "Csound Algorithmic Composition), which contains only free or open source software and so should be included in binary packages hosted on SourceForge, either as its own package, or in the default distribution. It is included in the Windows installers.

The Loris opcodes -- I don't know. I used to maintain them, but I quit when it became difficult to build up to date Loris code on Windows. It is no longer part of the Windows installers, but you should check the other packages.

Regards,
Mike
