III’ve been using VDMX for over 15yrs and from
My experience. Any of the crashes that happen are usually due to something in my project.
- bad media (including quartz, isf sources)
- bad / broken Revievers / Senders

To it but showed ??? Beside them.
After trying a bunch of things (and looking at he Log, which was showing errors about none existent menus). I realized I had renamed my clock plugin to “S-Clock” and it was loading after my “LFO ***” plugins. As soon as I renamed my Clock plug in so that alphabetically it came before anything that needed it. It solved many problems.
