I reuse a lot of external encapsulated patch objects in Max when creating M4L patches. When using Live 10, any of these M4L amxd's that rely on these patches won't work, because there isn't any "extras" folder for Max 8 yet.

Any idea whether there is a different way Max 8 handles these file preferences? Or do I need to wait for Max 8 to be officially released?

Hi all,

I don't use live at all, but just out of curiosity, to peek into max8

I downloaded live 10, and found Max.app sitting there, inside of

Live.app/App-Resources/Max . Throwed live stuff away and was left with max 8

which includes all that I can remember max 7 had inside...

Only runtime and runtime nocef were zip compressed...

But to Your question - the file structure is same as in max 7,

so sure enough there is folder "Extras" in C74 folder

including the patches, and Max seems to have found all packages

It creates it's own folders in Documents and Application Support folder

but from what I can see, the file structure, preferences etc is same

Thanks for the help -- it had been so long that I forgot that the Max 7 extras folder was inside Documents, not the Library>Application Support.
