those externals dont work in max 7. he apparently stopped updating them. you can use them on an old version of max to see what they like tho

get the files from http://peterelsea.com/lobjects.html
and stick them e.g. into /Users/you/Documents/Max 7/Library
works fine here.

It's the 64bit versions you want for Max 7.

Hello,

I know this thread has been inactive for a while, but I recently discovered while searching for information regarding Peter Elea's Lobjects. I am running Max 8.5.7 on a Dell PC with a Windows 11 OS. I recently downloaded the zip folder from Peter Elsea's website, which can be accessed via the following link:

This folder contains the Lobjects library that's compatible with Windows 64 bit operating systems. However, in spite of doing everything I know how, I have been unable to get these objects to be recognized by my Max Patchers. It seems that everyone I have contacted regarding this issue seems to have a different idea about where the Lobjects should be installed on a Windows PC. I would greatly appreciate any insight that might enable me to figure out how to get the Lobjects up and running on my machine.

Kind regards,

Lee Todd Lacks

you can place them in any max search path.

on windows for example /user/Documents/Max 8/Library

you can allways copy external you use into folder where patch that uses it

is located.
