The sample map issue was a seperate issue, but didnt happen until i moved to juce 8.
i got this error here
#error "Building for OSX 10.10 and earlier is no longer supported!
when trying to actually export an audiounit / vst on my mac build with juce 8.
I actually didnt get that error on a build with juce 8 i tried on windows.
but i still couldnt convert the samplemap to hlac monolith on the windows build.
