Suddenly crashing when opening some patches

VCV Rack
1

I am experiencing some problems all of a sudden with Rack. the only things I have done lately is update to the latest fork of @diimdeep macOS version and upgrade my Waves plugins to v12.7. now I am getting crashes opening certain patches in both the official version of Rack and the latest version of the macOS branch. but most patches still load and work fine. its puzzling.

2019 Macbook Pro/10.14.6 Mojave. assuming I should go back to the original @diimdeep branch (which was working fine) or am I better off maybe doing a fresh install of the official Rack and stop using the other branch? maybe there are conflicts between the 2 depending on which version the patch was built in?

any advice is appreciated. thanks

With my branch I only had once similar crash and with only with BZ mapper, but after macOS reboot it disappeared and never come back again for me. (I though that was some runtime bug inside macOS UI framework)

update: these crashes for me seemed to be related to my icloud backups. i’ve since disabled the cloud backups and back up externally now. havent had a crash since.
