Ohmforce Ohmicide: Mac plugin name different than PC?

[drez]

I've just moved from Mac to PC, reinstalled all my plugins (all 64bit just like on the Mac), and so far so good except for one. My favorite distortion plugin

When I open my Ableton projects, it thinks that the Ohmforce Ohmicide plugin is called Ohmicide_VST2_MachO and can't find it. On the PC its the name of the DLL, which is Ohmicide_vstwin_x64. Why would they be called different names on different platforms? I've tried renaming the DLL, but still no workie.

I sent an email to their support, but was wondering if anyone else had run across this issue.

I have also had this problem with going from a OSX to Windows. I have changed the names of the VSTs too like a year ago and that did not seem to work. I just got sick having to save the preset everytime I want to switch my OS so I am back to looking for a solution. I have none right now but just wanted to bump this. I am sure that we are a very small subset of users but this is a drag when everything else just works.

I forgot about this thread! If you contact Ohmforce they will send you a shim VST plugin that will fix you up!
