Just recently got X3 and look forward to using it. In setting up KPT filters work OK but the Magic bullet Looks fails to launch, or at least just opens a blank window and X3 passes the message "wrong parameters passed". I have de-installed and re-installed to no different effect. Running Win7-64.
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble with using Red Giants' Magic Bullet photo looks 2 plugin with PS CS6 (32&64).
The standalone program works fine on its own but fails to launch properly from PS's filter menu. It tries to launch the app but then reports an error, an error occurred (12288), Corrupted memory profile, then an error Can't open dest profile. These errors can't be cleared except by going into task manager to kill the app. Photoshop reports the error as Looks Builder failed to launch. Please ensure the application has not been renamed or moved from the install location and then Could not complete the Photo looks command because of a problem with the filter module interface.
I have been in contact with Red Giant but they are now struggling. I can't believe I am the only person that is getting this error but can't find anything specific on Google.
Error 12288 appears to relate to ICC problems.
The only non-standard thing about my installation is that all user data is on drive D & Page file on drive Z.
In my image there is an white sky background, where in front there is an person wearing white shirt.
I want to select a by color part of the sky. So I am using magic wand (match mode "color"). The problem is that it select the white shirt as well.
So, using freehand selection, I selected just the sky. Once I want just a color (not all sky), I am trying to to use magic wand (match mode "color" in mode "replace"). But once already exist a selection, the magic wand isn't available to "replace" (just in other modes - add or remove).
How could I make this selection without selecting the shirt? The intent of my first freehand selection was to protect the magic wand of selecting the shirt...
In this version PSP-X6 I am not able to activate my plugins. Here's what I did started the application and went to File /Preferences / File Location / Plugins. I added the folder where I have my plugins and selected the Enable Adobe plugins, Limit plugins w 8B? ext., Folder option enable, use sub folder, click OK then closed out the application and re-started PSP and open a picture with into effects, plugins and none of my plugins are available to be used.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter I migrated to Windows 7, PSPX3 does not load the plug-ins anymore. It says: "No plug-ins loaded." Older versions of PSP can load the plugins from the same directory, but not PSPX3. I have tried resetting the cache, and have checked the file location. It's correct and it is notched, but nothing works. I have 6Gb of RAM so it should do. Of course, I could always run the scripts in PSP8, so it's no big deal. But it should work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI upgraded from photo pro x3 ultimate to x4 ultimate. However, I have some plugins I use in X3, i.e like KPT Collection, Magic Bullet et cetera. I tried to reinstall my kpt collection, but it shows only in X3 (again) and not in X4.
how I can move my plugins from x3 to x4!
Yesterday I purchased Paint Shop Pro, downloaded it along with the extras -- KPT Collection, Magic Bullet, Win Zip, etc. -- all of which I was able to load/run, but the KPT Collection of effects/filters are not available. The filters are listed under plugins on the menu, but they are not highlighted and therefore can't be accessed.
Is there something I'm missing in trying to use the KPTs or something else that needs to be done to activate them? I did a search here on the forum, but didn't see anything that related to this problem.
I have used MV's Plugins for years. They worked fine in X4, started to not work on a layer in X5, but if I flattened the layer, no problem. In X6 none work, I get an error message. I have the latest versions as far as I am aware.
I then pointed the new Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 9 to the same folder (in this case Contrast Mask) to see if it works there. No problem. Ergo: what's happened to X6 to give these errors. MV'sPlugins_not_working-X6.jpg
I bought the older Version Paint Shop Pro Photo X2 installed it yesterday looked as it were working fine, but crashes with several plugins I usually use. Now I work again with Paint Shop Pro 9.01 since this version works stable and does not crash with the very same plugins. I thought that X2 would be better than XI which I bought a long while ago, since that version always crashed.
Now I would like to know, if there is a chance to work with X2 without crashes or that I have to continue to work with 9.01 and throw the X2 into trash same I did before to the version XI?
I just purchced x3 about two months ago and when it starts up there are a bunch of pictures from my computer at the bottom. And I have to click on one of the pictures and then close the picture. I'd rather not have my photos automatically displayed at the bottom of the page at start up. Is there a way to open x3 without the pictures being displayed at the bottom of the screen.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed the KPT plug ins from the Corel Content (or whatever it is called) website. They don't show up in X6--64 bit version. That is because they only work in 32? How can I get them to show up in 64 bit?
ps. They show up in X5. I can't remember which one, but I did like one of them.
I just started using PaintShop Pro x3. Does PSP is fully compatible with ALL Photoshop plugins & filters?
View 2 Replies View RelatedAlthough Paint Shop Pro X4 runs the filters from Topaz Labs correctly on a single file, PSPX4 chokes when running the filters as part of a script in batch files. Not only was the program unable to apply the plug-ins correctly in a batch file, the errors were different depending on the plug-in.
I ran my tests on 8 JPG files with dimensions of 4021x3024 pix, file size averaging 2.8 MB. I then reduced the files to 800x600 pix dimensions and ran the same tests. Results were the same on both size groups. I recorded a script with only each Topaz filter, then tested the script on a single image. The script worked. The problems occurred when run in batch processing. I tested against another company's plug-in, running Alien Skin's Xenofex 2 Burnt Edges in a batch file with script on the 8 images with no problem. I also tested the same Topaz Labs filters in PhotoLine 16, recording and playing actions. The plug-ins ran perfectly in PhotoLine.
When batch processing was run in PSPX4, it was run with the test script selected and silent mode selected. Silent mode means the script should run from start to finish with no intervention by the user. Here's what happened in my tests.
Topaz Adjust 4 - Batch file runs correctly through 4 images, then the process freezes. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz Detail 2 - Batch file runs correctly through 4 images, then the process freezes. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topoaz Clean 3 - Batch file runs, but Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection before progressing to next file. However, the process freezes after the fourth image. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz InFocus - Batch file runs, but Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection before progressing to next file. However, the process freezes after the fourth image. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz Lens Effects - Batch file runs, but Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection before progressing to next file. However, the process freezes after the fourth image. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz DeNoise 5 - Batch file runs for all 8 files, however Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection.
got the new Alien Skin plugins to work. When you install Alien Skin, you install to a single directory, both 32 bit and 64 bit plugins. Then in X5, File Locations, I put that directory in the settings but still nothing. maybe X5 doesn't work with them.

In a moment of lax attention I've done something stupid to the Photoshop CS version (original 1) and told it to search C:/programfiles for plugins whereas I meant to tell it specifically where to look.
So now it crashes when it gets to the 'Scanning for Plugins' part and of course I can't alter it back to what it should be.
Now when I run Image Ready the plugins are still as normal...
System Restore doesn't change the settings. Uninstall of the Photoshop component doesn't put it right either.
(maybe uninstall/reinstall the entire CS suite - but I guess even then it will still have the bad settings)
So is it a registry thing and if so what needs to be done to stop it searching the entire hard drive programs for plugins.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have colored in a part of a picture using the magic wand selection tool, then paint bucket. There is still some missed areas So I try to use the paintbrush tool .
However the paintbrush tool isn't applying any color (with me) .
when I paste a picture from the internet with a white background, I use magic wand on the white then press delete. AND IT LEAVES A WHITE LINE. Disabling anti aliasing does nothing, it will still show.
After I delete it I have to go through with the eraser tool along the whole thing and erase. (Which I did everything so far 'cept the top right of him.
I want to select a small section of an image (say for example, an eye on a person's face), and use the magic wand only within the selection. I don't want it to go beyond the selection, no matter how high the tolerance.

View 4 Replies View Relatedi am trying to make a transparent image, taking the back ground out of a pic and im following the tutorials and i have no magic wand in my paint.net?
View 10 Replies View RelatedYou know how a magic wand allows users to set a tolerance and select accordingly.
Well this usually works well for most people's purposes but what if the object concerned has a shadow or highlight effect that would fall through the cracks and require more editing.
What I was thinking here is that it would be very useful to be able to not only set tolerances for the tool but also set a 'border' variable in pixels. Hence it would be much easier to extract that text or object with its shadows intact (and requiring less retouching work)
I have used Photoshop for a while and right now I am trying Paint.net, there are a few things that I really do not understand.
1)When I create a font layer and wish to come back to it later on by modifying the font size or font type, I have to delete the layer and then redo type it again which I find totally useless. When you make a menu for a restaurant for example, the last thing you want is to delete the layers and replace them each time. If Paint.net works this way then I cannot see how it is possible to use it on a daily basis.
2)When I wish to crop something, it is impossible to select certain area of the cropping that have been selected by the magic wand. How to remove already selected portions of the magic wand? Sometime it may choose a tiny portion of the picture that you do not want to crop at all.
3)Choosing a layer on click.
This is a huge problem, we have on the right side of the screen a multiple layer dock, in photoshop for example, when you click on the graphical work, the layer is auto selected, in Paint.net I cannot find this "must have" function.
4)Creating a rounded picture without the need to cut the corners to get to a final rounded banner or whatever we are trying to achieve.
How can you create a rounder banner in jpeg for example(no background). At the moment I can only crop a picture from a square canvas and save it as png(foo background transparency), but how to create the same picture in jpeg? The canvas is always square.
How do I put the plugins into paint.net? Like I downloaded pyrochild's plugins but I don't know how to put his plugins on paint.net.
