Hi,
I was having this same problem.. it turned out that the VST path was not defined properly. just make a .bat file that sets the VST path before starting PD.

Hi Mark I was also having trouble with the object so I recompiled the source code on my machine and now at least pd sees the dll and loads it, the problem now is that whenever I try to use the object Pd crashes? Any ideas?
p.s. could you possibly send me an old dll for the project if you have one, as I was running the object a few moths ago without any problems at all? Thanks for your patience!

external working - From the emails you sent the problem is with PD finding the external as far as I can tell rather than any problem with the External itself.
There aren't any other VST externals that support VST instruments But the plugin~ object does support some VST 1 plugins. Check Pure-data.org I guess or do a google for it.
Failing that you will have to do what I did and write your own That works to your satisfaction

Does anybody know of a PD-object where I can use VST-plugins? Since I can't get Mark's VST-object to work I was wondering if there are any other objects available.
