Ooh nice!! I remember Ohmicide and Quad Frohmage fondly.

Sadly the best on of the bucnh ‘Ohmicide’ gives a lot of gui errors and crashes renoise

Hey, wtf I paid for ohmicide

Jonas · August 3, 2023, 3:36pm

what version are you running (also 32 or 64bit) on what OS?

I’m on 1.30.68201 and this version works fine in the latest beta on windows 10 (perhaps if there is a newer version out there, haven’t been to my account there in years, it has introduced problems and you can download this version instead?).

Just downloaded Ohmicide and it also causes my Renoise 3.4.2 on Win10 to crash with a warning message about the GUI.

I’ve had the same problems, so then I bought Trash2.

is it mac 64bit, too?

what kills me is that they didn’t bother giving the Classic versions of Hematohm, OhmBoyz and Predatohm.
only the “funky skins” which are trash.
i’ve tried to reach out to them for them to push out an apple silicon version with classic skins but they flat out refuse.
have suggested donating money too.

esaruoho · March 17, 2025, 9:20pm

ok, i don’t know what’s going on, but somehow i was able to install and run the audiounit versions of hematohm and predatohm, on Apple Silicon macOS Sequoia 15.3.2… with the classic skins.

now if only the OhmBoyz could be rescued from funky-oblivion.

Afaik remember you always had a choice during install what version of the skin you’d like to install, at least on windows.

esaruoho · March 18, 2025, 5:29am

no. they didn’t bother packaging that into the free versions (macOS).
but yes i know what you’re talking about. that’s in windows installers.
that just wasn’t included in the macOS packages.

gentleclockdivider · March 18, 2025, 8:51pm

They come with the classic skins as well , you have to choose these during the install process

esaruoho · March 18, 2025, 9:02pm

yes.
if you’re on windows.
not so on macOS.

kunitoki · March 18, 2025, 9:37pm

How did you manage to do that ? They are not recognised on my macOS, only Frohmager is showing up (it has an installer). I tried dropping the keys into Application Support but they won’t show up anyway

kunitoki · March 18, 2025, 10:00pm

Ah even if they say on the website their plugins support ARM on macOS 12+, they are just intel plugins and you need to run your DAW as x86_64 to make them work, annoying.

ffx · March 18, 2025, 10:19pm

Hm, I don’t think so. Maybe you have to try the VST3 versions only.

I’ve just checked Frohmager.vst3:

file ~/Downloads/Frohmager.vst3/Contents/MacOS/Frohmager
~/Downloads/Frohmager.vst3/Contents/MacOS/Frohmager: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [x86_64:Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64] [arm64]
~/Downloads/Frohmager.vst3/Contents/MacOS/Frohmager (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64
~/Downloads/Frohmager.vst3/Contents/MacOS/Frohmager (for architecture arm64): Mach-O 64-bit bundle arm64

kunitoki · March 18, 2025, 10:21pm

Frohmager is the only one universal, i just checked the legacy ones, they are only intel (all of them, AU, VST):

lipo -info Ohmicide_VST2MachO.vst/Contents/MacOS/Ohmicide-pro-funky-VST2
Architectures in the fat file: Ohmicide_VST2MachO.vst/Contents/MacOS/Ohmicide-pro-funky-VST2 are: x86_64 i386

ffx · March 18, 2025, 10:21pm

So there is no VST3 in Ohmicide?

kunitoki · March 18, 2025, 10:22pm

There is only VST (2 i suppose)
