Can't get Lil Phatty VST editor 2 work w/ Ableton

I’m pretty good with stuff like this but I spent 4 hours last night trying to get this to work. There
are threads in the forums where people are talking like they’re waiting for some firmware update?
The instructions that came with the editor are the worst. I followed them step by step over and over
and could never get it to work correctly. Can someone just tell me if indeed this works? I have the latest
phatty OS. It says it came out in June of 2011. Is there a newer one that I can’t find? I’m running Ableton
8.3.
