Does anyone know if the present non-Live version of Max can create stand-alone and/or VST versions of Max patches? or does the Max SDK environment need to be running all the time on your machine. Or is there a 'runtime'?

I did try to find the answer to these questions on the Cycling site but couldn't

Thanks

there is a max runtime

im not sure but i dont think you can use it to create vst's
(once again not an expert, i just have used it occasinally)

stand alone yes, plug-ins no.

the plug-in system is known as 'pluggo' and it will be available for max 5 but its not ready yet. probably because they've been busy doing the Max for live stuff.

thats what i've understood from reading the c74 forum anyway

Woah answered in 5 mins! Thanks guys.

haha forgot completely about pluggo

em good luck on your merry way

Ahh a search on pluggo was the key...

you can still create pluggo pluggins that will work with live in max 4 though, right?
