OK, ran with verbose.. and tried to create mtx_mul~:
tried /mtx_mul~.pd_darwin and failed tried /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/cyclone/mtx_mul~.pd_darwin and failed tried /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/zexy/mtx_mul~.pd_darwin and failed tried /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/cxc/mtx_mul~.pd_darwin and failed tried /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/ext13/mtx_mul~.pd_darwin and failed tried /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/iemabs/mtx_mul~.pd_darwin and failed tried /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/../extra/iemmatrix/mtx_mul~.pd_darwin and succeeded mtx_mul~ ... couldn't create
So it succeeds and then can't create it? As always, thanks for your help,

good.

there is nothing to correct, as it is as it should be.
the reason for the hex names is, that a lot of filesystems don't like certain characters. using the hex-names guarantees ascii filenames.
type in their hex names as they stand as .pd_darwin files.
you cannot use the hex-names, you have to use their real names.
please run pd with the "-verbose" flag and tell us, what exactly pd prints when it cannot create the object.
btw, i am not sure, whether [mtx_*~] really uses the hex-loader (most likely it just uses the alias mtx_mul~)
