Hi there. I am a postgraduate majoring in psychology. I am interested in emotional memroy and aging. I am doing my mater's thesis and surprisingly found your article named "Eye movements support behavioral pattern completion". What's more exciting was that the R package was open and free to use. I really appreciate your contribution of eyesim package. I am really impressed by your work on the data processing of eyemovement. As eyemovement was also included in my experiments, it struck me that maybe I could check gaze reinstatement in my data processing too. So, I tried the open source r package issued to do data analysis. However, I encounterd the following problems.  "-目标主要名称不正确" means that "-The target principal name is incorrect" and " 'eyesim' 不是有效的已经安装了的程序包" means " 'eyesim' is not a valid installed package". mmexport1641789285564

Currently I am having problems with loading the R package named eyesim that I downloaded from github https://github.com/bbuchsbaum/eyesim. I downloaded the package and put it in my local R folder: "C:\Users\HUAWEI\Downloads...". By no means can I install this package successfully, and load it. I also tried to intall it through Github, but failed, too. Could you please explain the process of  "eyesim" installation? Again, many thanks for your great work on developing tools to index gaze reinstatement.

Quite late to the party, not sure if you’ve given up on using this package since january but answering anyway as I’d have liked someone to do to me when I was in your position. I’m not on Windows so can’t provide in-depth help, but using search engines I found this post that may be of interest. The quick and dirty method would be to look at the R library folder to determine what’s necessary from the GitHub repo. In case you’re aiming for a long-term solution, if you’ll use this package after your thesis, then the R_Libs way may be useful.

the way to install is:

install.packages("remotes") remotes::install_github("bbuchsbaum/eyesim")
