percolate-ub

but one strange thing: max doesn't find the externals at startup (yes, i have put them in the searchpath), but once i 'initalise' them by doubleclicking them in the finder they work just fine.

this is a 1.67 ghz powerbook, with os 10.4.8 and max/msp 4.6.2

hi luke,
thanks for the update.

hey stephen. you know it's weird; this happend to ali when he was testing 

it too, but i was totally unable to replicate it on any of the machines i 

tested it on (including a machine like yours). so i'm a bit at a loss;

i'll look into it more tho.

I had the same problem, and the solution was NOT to use stuffit 

expander, but to use BOMArchiveHelper.app (another default from OS X)

I answered this in the other thread... If Max finds the "PeRColate_Source" folder before it finds the "PeRcolate_UB" folder, then it can't load the objects. Multiple workarounds... rename one, .zip the source code folder, move it out of the search path, etc.

Metashaker~ and bamboo~ seems to respond very sluggishly on my MacBook with Max 4.6.2 and OSX.4.8. When I change the energy parameter, only a few "grains" are played every second, but at an even rate. I have tried with both a FW audio card and the built in. Everything else seems to be working fine, and the CPU-load is close to nothing. Any idea what this can be?

Did anyone notice that the "PeRColate for Windows Max/MSP" link doesn't work? Oh the joy it would bring me to finally download PeRColate and see what it's all about!

seems the windows version has been updated (v0.9b5, not b4), so this link works:
