Can't load externals in trial version

Jordi Puig's icon

Is that the expected behavior of the trial version?

I just downloaded max, installed on a custom folder. Then navigating to extras/cv.jit object guide

loading cv.jit.binedge throws an error:

newobj: cv.jit.binedge: No such object

Same happens with other externals.

is the custom folder included in search path? ("file preferences")

only the runtime uses the whole base, the demo version uses a bunch of defaults.

Hi Roman,
Sorry for my delay. Yes it is included in file preferences. Any other ideas?
Could the external be broken and therefore fail to load? it was build using the SDK.
I installed Max on a different drive. Could that be the issue?

Placing the external and the patch next to each other does not help either.

external not loaded even if placed in included search paths

external not loaded even if placed next to each other

Ok i think i found out what was going on. I had to compile for 64bit instead of 32.
Sorry for the confusion.
