I have a problem, I want to make an object with default parameters (parameters written in the object's box...) It works for 3 or less parameters, and for 4 and higher, Max/msp is crashing. 

PS: Sorry for my English but I'm french !! :)

Hello, 
I have a problem, I want to make an object with default parameters (parameters written in the object's box...) It works for 3 or less parameters, and for 4 and higher, Max/msp is crashing. 
Can you help me??
Thanks.

without the name of that object, it's hard to help you...

please describe exactly how to reproduce this crash, or send a patch...

I assume you're trying to build your own external object.

Max has, for a long time, had difficulties in parsing argument lists 

in setup() that are longer than 3 items and contain a mixture of 

A_FLOAT, A_LONG, A_SYM. If everything is A_LONG it apparentlys works 

fine, but mixed arguments lists don't. The only approach is to use 

A_GIMME and parse the argument list yourself.

I don't recall this crashing objects, but it's been a very long time 

since I tried a long explicit argument list.
