Fractalius & CS5?

JDP · 11 Sep 2010

Hi guys,

Has anyone managed to get Fractalius working on CS5? it worked okay on CS4.

I install it into the photoshop plug-in directory but i am unable to find the addon in the dropdown in photoshop. Does anyone else have this issue?

I'm using Photshop CS5, Windows 7 64bit.

Thanks.

Thank you for reminding me what it was called - I knew I had backed it up when I reformatted my computer but could not find it as could not remember what it was

Mine works on CS5, Vista, 32 bit

Are you running the PS CS5 in 32-bit mode, though? A 64-bit OS is rather less relevant.

Do your filters work with Adobe Photoshop CS4 64-Bit?

Our filters are 32-bit software. Photoshop CS4 64-bit is not able to run 32-bit plug-ins. It can only run 64-bit plug-ins. Our plug-ins need to be executed in the 32-bit version of Photoshop CS4 \Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Photoshop.exe)

64-bit versions of our filters will be issued this year.

To the OP, update to the latest version if you haven't already. Run PSCS5 in 32-bit mode. See what happens.

No problem. Its a great plug-in. One of my favorites. Cool, i tried to run photoshop under Vista compatibility, but i had no luck.

Thanks for this. I didn't install the 32-bit version, but how do i run it in that? I had a look in properties and i couldn't find anything. Im going to do a reinstall of PSCS5 along with a update, see what happens. And im going to install the 32-Bit one also.

Thanks all for the help!

Then I am slightly surprised, unless the manufacturers' FAQ is out of date and they have actually released the new, 64-bit version of the plugin.
