I have the latest Max 4.6.2 installed on two systems. One, a G4 tower running OS 10.3.9, the other, a Pismo laptop running 10.4.8 (if you don't know these models, both are PPC machines).

My test patch is the most simple plug-in: a plugin~ wired to a plugout~, with a plugconfig object in there too. That's it.

Building a VST plug-in on the 10.4.8 system creates a Universal plug-in. Building the same plug-in on the 10.3.9 system creates a PowerPC plug-in.

If it matters, the "libraries for older external objects" are not installed on either system. Also, if it matters, I do have Max 4.5.6 installed on the 10.3.9 system, but that should have no effect, yes?

I know there's a lot of confusion about different Max versions and Intel vs PPC processors right now, but I didn't think there was a difference between 10.3 and 10.4 systems as well (once you meet the minimum requirement of 10.3.9, for using Max 4.6).

Look in your CFMSupportFolder // Dev/Library.

On the other Hand 10.4.x has a different structure.//File Sys etc.. 

s a good Idea to Perform on 10.4.x because this OS it

Hi Leigh,
Maybe youve some older Libs. on your 10.3.9
Look in your CFMSupportFolder // Dev/Library.
On the other Hand 10.4.x has a different structure.//File Sys etc.. 
I think its a good Idea to Perform on 10.4.x because this OS its
much more stable then 10.3.9.

On the 10.3.9 system, I'm still running Max 4.5.6 also, so I need to keep its support files (in /Library/Application Support/Cycling '74 and /Library/CFMSupport) in place.

With Max 4.6, it's supposed to be self-contained within the application folder, right?

Scratch all this - I think the problem is explained by the phenomenon (whether a bug or intentional, I'm not clear yet) that I reported here:

Max 4.6 won't build UB VSTs on OS 10.3.9
