The whole shebang. Gone just like that. All it says is <please wait>, and nothing happens. Any help would be considered hot. I have SynthMaker installed on my work as well. Should I copy the modules from there?
I lost my modules!

damn thats hard....me and a few others had a likely problem in the past, perhaps theese related topics can help you a little. I lost all modules, any chance to get them back? [old link]

Well I copied the system folder from synthmaker under program files to synthmaker under appdata. Still no luck. Then it hit me that my synth has a module that checks if a folder exists, and does it quite frequently. I think that the tick 100 needs some optimization done to start after SynthMaker's startup routine is completed. It scans for a folder which contains the waveforms both addive and drawn. I cannot give you the oscilator, but I've posted the CheckFolder module:

I had this phenomenon last week also. When i opened an existing osm my modules have not been loaded and i just had the message "please wait".
Furtunatelly SM started correctly when starting it from my Windows/Programs folder. So i assume that my osm was somehow corrupted.

This is rather strange. I forced SM to recognize the modules when I tried to drag the MIDI in primitive to the toolbox. Then it loaded. Anyways it is a really annoying feeling when one know there is tools available, but none shows up. It's if the SM toolbox all went out in strike. Saying Not this time. 🙂

That often happens also here on a generic PC slow-down too. I just simply close and re-open the file.

hehe the toolbox does indeed work strange sometimes 😉 (thinking of a old SM bug i had last year .it crashes SM EVERY TIME i tried to enter the word "drag" in the toolbox search. 😕 )

This just happened to me also. I opened a download from forum, from download dialog, and no modules. I reopened SM from desktop shortcut and it was fixed.

YUP - Toolbox loading slows down very much - sometimes freezes...
It works sometimes if i just click inside a module.
Closing and reload OSM works always fine...

So it seams that SM should load the modules before any schematic is opened then.
This bug happens alot in this oscillator combo I designed since it uses a lot of tick25 / tick100. A wise move would be to disable them until everything is loaded.

for me personally the toolbox is one of the most important things that has to get fixed. it´s a IMPORTANT BASIC feature and if it does not work properly it slows down everything else, no matter what you build. i can´t speak from the view of a high-organized DSP pro but for me as a "just-for-fun" SM user it´s really a pain to work with it fast. but that´s maybe related to my chaotic module system hehehe 😕 😀

I´ve solved it as follow :
1- Uninstall SM 2- Delete all SM folders (from C:\Program Files and from C:\Users\gvalletto\AppData\Roaming 3- Reinstall SM
That's all. I hope it's useful for all 🙂
