quartz replicate in space not working in resolume

I'm trying to use the "replicate in space" quartz composer patch in a .qtz and although it works as expected inside the quartz environment it renders nothing at all once inside resolume. Has anyone else encountered this?

I tested this very simple comp, just a replicate in space with a cube inside. It works as intended in quartz but NOTHING is rendered in resolume

not working for me either in resolume
also makes my quartz composer hang when I try to adjust Copies input.
I'm on El-capitan, quartz version 4.6(151.1)

edit:
after deleting the input splitter and publishing the 'Copies' from the macro directly it loads fine in resolume,
adjusting the Center parameters makes the texture all white eventually.

Interesting. I'll try that, thanks. I'm on Mavericks with Quartz 4.6 (151) by the way.

I've been doing some tests with the original file which is way more involved than the sample I linked to and basically it stops working as soon as I have any input splitters which makes the whole thing pretty unusable really. Are there any workarounds?
Is this a Quartz or a resolume bug I wonder?

I think I'm getting somewhere (fingers crossed!) I'm rebuilding my quartz patch one bit at a time and it appears that if I add an input splitter to an input and THEN publish the input of the splitter it doesn't work but if I publish the input first and then I add a splitter to it it does work....
Mind boggling weirdness!

More weirdness. Now I get "+" and "-" buttons in the resolume interface rather than a slider to adjust the number of iterations. My input splitter is set to "number" and I always had a slider within Resolume when that was the case. What's even more strange is that the "=" and "-" buttons don't even increment by a full integer but by 0.12

This is really bizarre. I have 2 other splitters in the comp set to "number" input and they display a slider !@£$!$!$%

Hopefully this is the end of the thread!
After connecting and disconnecting everything back and forth it now works as intended but I have no idea what the problem was in the first place.
