If that's the case, then something is not working right. I've got
"VXCMD_Macho_MC" inside ~/Documents/My Revolution Enterprise/
Externals. When I check the externalPackages of stack "home" it is
not listed. And I am using the PPC engine (iMac G5).
Any other ideas? This is very strange. If I copy the external into /
Applications/Revolution Enterprise/2.7.4-gm-1, then the external
becomes available. But it still doesn't show in externalPackages of
stack "home". It does show in externalPackages of my stack so long as
I set the externals of my stack to "VXCMD_Macho_MC". Could it be
something with the external itself?

I'm just now really diving into using Rev 2.7.4, and I must say I
like it! However, I'm having a problem loading externals. Where

my stack in Rev? I've tried placing them in /Documents/My
Revolution Enterprise/Externals, but that doesn't seem to be
working. Is this not the correct location? The externalFunctions
property returns empty.
These are the Valentina externals, btw (VXCMD_Macho_MC). Using Rev
2.7.4 and Mac OS X 10.4.7
Chris,
If you are setting externals manually then it doesn't matter where
you put them. You just have to make sure your path is correct.
The path will be relative to the engine, not the alias to the
engine that Rev creates.
What I like to use in Dev mode is the 3rd party folder which is
located in your documents folder
On mac that would be ~/Documents/My Revolution Enterprise/Externals
(or Media/Studio)
Any externals in this folder are loaded automatically at startup.
You can check that they are available by looking at the
externalPackages of stack "home".
One thing to note with Valentina 1.x and 2.7 - you can only use it
with the PPC engine or a UB engine that is forced to run under
Rosetta (plist setting).
