Ok so in other words, if I remove my NI resources folders and images. Are you saying I can start fresh, by just saving a new preset, and it will then create the correct name within NI Resources ( dis_database + image ) And then I can then edit them further ?

thanks Sunborn, will try this now ;)

You do not need to remove anything. Just to edit it, until you find the correct.
One question: you wrote the plugin as ob-xtrm3
Are you sure about the 3 at the end? because the rest seem ok (except for the folder/subfolder case)Try those.
I remove the number 3 from everywhere. If you still can't see them, then add the number 3 again everywhere (folders, files and inside .meta and .json too).
They will work with one of the above 2 options

Ok I followed your instructions. I created a preset. I then went into the NI Resources folder to check and see if there we're any new folders created, ( dist_database or in image ) but there's not.
When you say click edit , are you saying I need to click edit on the preset file ? This is where I'm not understanding ? Is the preset supposed to give us some deeper information here?

dist_database and image are not creating automatically by saving a preset.
You need to make them by your self.But, once you make them, there is no need to delete them and remake them, just to edit what's necessary.
A created preset can give you an idea about naming, on some difficult cases where things are not obvious.
By "click edit" yes, obviously i mean on the preset file… :-)

Ok thanks, yes so I've done exactly what you've mentioned. but still no images will appear. This is why I'm drawing the conclusion, it seems it's not in the correct folder , or maybe it needs to be renamed some other name? Here's what I have below.. I also attached NI Resources
The dist_database folder > alyjameslab | ob-xtrm3 |categories >
"Vendor" : "AlyJamesLab",
"Product" : "OB-Xtrm3",Also image > ob-xtrm3 | ob-xtrm3.meta
AlyJamesLab
</vendor>
<name>
OB-Xtrm3
</name>
<type>
dist_database
</type>

You do not read what i wrote….
here:
and here:
Your folder structure is wrong, you do not have a vendor folder in "images", only the product folder

Most of this is only needed if you are using KK 2.9.6 anyway (or Maschine to an extent). With KK3 you can get away with just the banner and tile images and forget about the dist_database stuff if you want

Hi Sunborn,
I tried removing the 3 , and it's still not working. I appreciate all the help, I'm not sure what to try now, I would have thought there'd be a way to actually know the name,but I guess this is a limitation.

…but you are still didn't check what i wrote!
—>Your folder structure is wrong, you do not have a vendor folder in "images", only a product folder
I know this, but when we make presets and post them for public use, we have to cover every case, even for the people with older hardware.
I have KK 3 btw, but if feel much more comfortable to work on Maschine 😉

There is, as Sunborn said you need to select the NKS preset in the KK browser, click edit and it will open up its properties. The plugin name should be exactly what is shown in the product name field and the vendor name is shown too under vendor, use that as your vendor folder name and in the json
This is how these appear in 2.9.6 - this seems to work best if you keep your folders names lower case but the .JSON can be sentence case

Hi Sunborn and Kymeia, Thanks for clearing this up, I'll give this another try.

Ok sorry for the delay I had to hook up my laptop, install Komplete Kontrol 2.9.6 and install the software.
In KK 2.9.6 the Edit windows reveals
General - Product : ( OB-Xtrm3 )
Properties - Vendor Name ( AlyJamesLab )
So I'll try to edit all this accordingly
Update : Still not working, after using the correct information, idk what to think now, but thanks again for all your help guys !

Sorry ,I had already tried it as you mentioned by changing the folder structure in image to ( alyjameslab / ob-xtrm3 ) and it doesn't even show up in KK 3.3.4 browser like that, so you must use in image ( ob-xtrm3 ) or you won't even see the name in the browser.
