Lobjects update

Scott Fitzgerald — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 20:54:21 +0000

I was looking to get a shiny new set of Lobjects for Max 5, but the file at ftp://arts.ucsc.edu/pub/ems/Lobjects/Lobjects_2010.dmg.bin seems to be corrupted. Last year on the forum Peter made mention of Lobjects_expo.dmg from the Expo, but I can’t find those anywhere either. Anyone have any leads?

Thanks

Dit you try to unpack this with stuffit expander? This did the trick for me.

I’m afraid Stuffit didn’t work for me. I merely ended up with an empty folder.

You’re using a Mac, right? In the Finder menus, choose Go, then Connect to Server… and paste in ftp://arts.ucsc.edu/pub/ems/Lobjects. You should find Lobjects_2010.dmg there. Drag it to your desktop and double-click to mount it. I couldn’t unpack the dmg.bin either when downloading use your link, but the direct access method works.

Cheers.

Weird, connecting through the Finder, it worked downloading the disk image. Through my FTP program (Fetch) it did not.

Thanks.

I just had the same experience. Getting the DMG with Transmit gave me an unreadable file (it’s not MacBinary), but going through the Finder as described above did the trick!
