Problems with Myo for Max
I am having an issue with Jules Francoise's Myo for Max: When I load the patcher, the object Myo is red, as if it doesn't exist. However, if I make a new object box and start typing my, Max will suggest Myo. When I press enter to complete the creation of the myo object, the object turns red.
I am running 64 bit, max 7.2.3 and OS 10.9.5 so it shouldn't be an compatibility issue.
I am getting the following error report:
myo: unable to load object bundle executable

Funny thing is, that the patch works fine on my friend's computer. He has sent his patch to me and I have tried downloading the patch brand new but all stays the same.
The object is working for me here with the same Max version , newer OS (10.11.5).
Maybe re-download the object: https://github.com/JulesFrancoise/myo-for-max/releases ? Also, make sure there's only one in your search path?
Hi and thanks for the suggestions,
tried downloading it again and made sure only one exists in the search path. The problem persists, though. Never had this happen before.
This thread might be helpful for you.
Thank you for the link. I did all they suggest, with no results. Wondering if it is my OS that is too old, even though it should be fine.
Hmm, I can confirm this problem. It worked fine earlier in the day, but now I'm getting the same "unable to load object bundle executable" thing.
Which OS are you running Rodrigo? I think I may have solved the issue after running the patch on four different Macs. Even though Max for Myo is supposed to run on 10.9.5, it did not work on any of the macs with this OS. However, the ones running 10.10.5 or later had no problem with the myo.mxo file. I haven't been able to upgrade yet, but hope to do so in the coming days.
I'm on 10.10.5.
It managed to work after I quit and reopened the Myo Connect thing a couple of times. I didn't do any rigorous testing beyond that though. But maybe it has something to do with a 'port' type issue where it has to be available to load the bundle? I've only really seen that error when something is wrong with the compiled external though (or trying to run in 32/64 bit when it's not made for that)
Still having the same issues. It worked one day, then not the next. I managed to get it to work again by switching Max to 32bit and then back again, but it must have been a fluke as now nothing I do gets it working.
I actually implemented some cool stuff around the external doing quaternion to eueler angle stuff, with scaling/smoothing and tare-ing the orientation. I also like the fact that you have the ability to send haptic feedback to the unit, which I was planning on using for gesture recognition, but with this level of inconsistency, it's not very promising...
I've posted an issue to Jules' github, so hopefully he picks up on it:
https://github.com/JulesFrancoise/myo-for-max/issues/2
I also looked at a bunch of the other alternatives and it's not great. There's samyk's OSC bridge which appears to be working, but only one armband and no unit feedback.

I did come across this:

But no info as to download it and googling his name turns up nothing.
Has anyone else found a good solution for using Myos in Max?
Ah great, I'll take a look.
And interesting. I hadn't thought to check the about window, but Max seems to be opening in 32bit (randomly) regardless of what the "open in 32-bit mode" tick box is set to. (according to the Max window anyways).
Hi Jules, finally had time to download the new version and yes, it seems to be working! Thanks so much. Best, Adam
