4ms Modules Not Updating.

Hoping someone might be able to help me out.

As the title states, the 4ms modules won’t update. I go through the regular update process, but 4ms is still there when I restart. I’ve tried reinstalling the modules to no avail and even contacted the developer. He suggested posting on here.

Many thanks in advance.

What version of 4ms are you on ?

Current is :

Thanks for the reply Yeager. I reckon it must be the latest as I deleted it and reinstalled just yesterday. It’s not even showing up in the library, so I can’t check.

I’m currently using VCV 2.5.2 as the latest versions were too much for my machine. That said the same thing happens in 2.6.

What is your OS ?

Mac OS10.13. High Sierra.

When you go to help and then user folder

You’ll see a plugins-mac-xxx prob x64 or arm folder , is there a ms4Company folder inside of that ?

Yep, they’re where they should be. That’s where I deleted them from when I tried to reinstall.

do you have this entry in your settings.json scroll down.

Sorry, where do I find that?

In your user folder it’s a file called settings.json, (its a text file)

Took me a while to find it, weirdly it’s a Max file on my system. It opened though.

This what I found.

So you picked a few modules from the site but didn’t go for the full plug-in.

go here : VCV Library - Plugins

Click remove all and unsubscribe (if possible)

Close Rack

Then remove the 4msCompany folder from your harddrive

Start rack, close rack.

Now click subscribe ( not visible in this pic but you should see it)

Start rack, and 4ms should be offered for download.

No joy, I’m afraid.

How does the settings.json entry look now ?

I’m sorry to say that you should probably not expect the 4ms plugin to run properly on a macOS this old.

Thank you, I thought that could have been the case but had some hope as the developer didn’t say anything. Thanks for letting me know.
