I try to install CNMAT's latest version of their objects. On my 

titanium g4, under OSX39, for Max/MSP 457. First, Safari complains that 

it can't decompress the file (and indeed, BOMArchiveHelper doesn't open 

it, nor does gunzip in a shell). UnStuffit can decompress the file, but 

all externals lost their type/creator metadatas. Even when I set the 

creator/type (or add a suffix) of these files, Max don't load the 

externals and just says "not available for PowerPC" when I try to 

instantiate them. Using Install... or dble-clicking on the externals 

I feel very stupid... especially because I think there was recently a 

topic on the forum about the same kind of problem, but cannot find it 

anymore (like the mp3 or Kasper's recent story...).

I'll look into it; I thought we'd fixed this problem, but I doubt we tested it under Panter.

I had the same problem. But it works when you download the externals

individualy rather than the whole package.

Same error here some time ago, so I simply changed the suffix of the file to .zip and everything worked.

cnmat package cfm - not available for PowerPC
