OSC API still valid ?

Hello,
I am trying to control some parameters via OSC and discovered this page : https://github.com/cansik/madmapperapi
When I use this command as described /getControls?root=/surfaces/Quad-1&recursive=1
I get a reply from Madmapper (in MaxMsp) with 46 possible controls. But when I tried to send an OSC message to some of these controls, nothing happens. I am particularly trying with :
/surfaces/Quad-1/output/mesh_warping
and with /surfaces/Quad-1/output/soft_edge

None of these two are working. I tried several different spellings (changing underscore with upperscore, or capital letters) to no avail.
Are these messages not available anymore ? Thanks
Using Madmapper 4.00 Beta 9

Hi,
OSC API is still support, however it's deprecated in favor of standardized Osc Query:

https://github.com/Vidvox/OSCQueryProposal
"mesh_warping" and "soft_edge" nodes are there for technical purpose and are not meant to be controlled through OSC. We'll fix this so they don't appear in the API. You can check by pressing on the "+" button in the control list which nodes are meant to be used.
