In the past day or so all of my JS objects have stopped working. I get the error message "new obj * js: No such object" for every instance of any [js] object, including all help file examples. It seems that the JS object itself is missing, since I cannot edit/add any source code. (Other Javascript objects such as [jsui] do not seem to be affected.)

Has anyone run into this before? How can I fix this?

So, I have found a temporary workaround by using the js object from Max 6.1.9...but this isn't ideal, obviously. My Max 7 js object disappeared before I installed the 7.0.5 update. After I installed the update, it is still missing.

Really not sure what happened...but I'd be very grateful for any advice as I use the js object quite a lot. Basically, my question is where can I find the object and how can I install it?

(Also the workaround has the unfortunate tendency of frequently making Max quit.)

My first guess would be that you have a file with the name 'js' in your search path. Max object names are reserved names, if files have the same name object loading might break.

Otherwise not contact support.


Thank you, Jan! Problem solved. Many thanks for your help. :)

JS object (itself) missing?
