Before Max 9, one could define one's own objectfiles and substitutions for custom 

-objects which also allowed direct access to their 

 when set up correctly. This was achieved using the method:

Since Max 9 the objects are still created correctly with these lines of text, however, helpfiles and reference pages are no longer accessible and one always ends up at the general jsui/v8ui helpfile.

, it says the following needs to be written in the textfile , or sent as a message to max:

With the example provided in the above mentioned documentation, it's all hunky dory and everything works as expected, including the mentioned 'transform'-command from the object's dropdown-menu. None of this works anymore, whether using the deprecated (?) 

So, I am quite lost and would like to map all the helpfiles and refpages set up to their jsui/v8ui objects again. What can I do?

I have  created a quick 'TEST'-package to make sure I am not missing anything and to allow others to reproduce:

the file 'test-objectmappings.txt' contains the following line, as suggested in the documentation:

max define max.defined.v8ui v8ui max.defined.v8ui.js;

the-define-message.zip

Any help or guidance would be gretly appreciated!

 is now considered legacy, it would make great sense to upgrade the dropfile-options for JavaScript files in Max, since 

-file onto an unlocked patcher. This obviously throws an error when js-Files have been coded for v8.

Let’s assume for the following that we are working on a

2/ Adding node_content to the Project’s Search Path

 folder available to the project we need to add it to the project’s 

 option. Max will open another window that allows you to manage the Project's 

 at the bottom left of this window we can add another entry, which should give you something like the following:

We will now create the simple script for this test scenario. For that open the 

 folder in a text editor of your choice and create a file called 

const Chance = require("chance");
const maxAPI = require("max-api")
const chance = new Chance();

const generateRandomName = async () => {
        const name = chance.name();
        await maxAPI.outlet(name);
};

setInterval(generateRandomName, 1000);

 to generate a random name every second and outlet it to Max.

4/ Patching everything together and installing the

objects to show the generated, random name. And add the
