I'm getting java runtime-exception errors when attempting to open example projects from the web. I have made sure java is installed. Unfortunately, I don't know much about programming. Can someone help??

    Update: I'm an idiot. I was trying to open files from the wrong folder, which contained Touch Designer files. Lol.

    Hi,

    Uhm I think you're trying to open a Touch Designer file in NodeBox? That's not supported yet 🙃
