Hello,

Is there any plans for an update for Max9? Or is there any way to make Beam work for Max9 right now? Every time I load a [beam.core], Max crashes instantly. I’ve managed to make a work around for now by sending data with [updsend] and [udprecieve] to a Max8 build running Beam.

Thanks, and keep up the good work!

Hey!

Beam for Max should be compatible with Max 9. I just tried some of the help files in Max 9.0.5 and I’m not experiencing any crashes, so the issue you’re running into might be a yet unknown bug.

What version of Max 9 are you using? And what operating system do you use? Any chance you have a crash log you can send our way?

Thanks!  
Hidde

Alright!

I’m running Windows 11 Pro with Max 9.0.5. I do have a Mac Mini M1 I could try to use as well but since I mostly work on my Windows laptop while at work it would be nice to get it to work…

Can’t see to find any generated crash log. Which directory should I find them in.

Thanks!

On Windows, you can use the **Event Viewer** application. Open **Event Viewer \> Windows Logs \> Application** and there should be a file that starts with **Max-** and has a **.dmp** file extension.

It would be great if you could send me that file via email: [hidde@showsync.com](mailto:hidde@showsync.com).
