Photoshop plugin, how?

Didn't figure out how this works.
Are all I need some .8bf files?
Or I must have Photoshop x86 version installed?
OS: Win 10 x64
PS: Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit) (x64 only)
XV: 0.83-XnViewMP-win-x64

Photoshop doesn't have to be installed for 8BFs to work with XnView.
The 32-bit edition of MP requires 32-bit 8BFs, and the 64-bit version needs 64-bit plug-ins. (I don't know if
AlphaPlugins LaunchBox is compatible with XnView MP).

Without luck
1. I added plugin path to the adobe plugin manager
In the xnview.ini it says
Code: Select all
[Adobe]
Adobe\Path=K:/App/Something/XnViewMP/plugins/photoshop/
2. I put a x64 plugin 8BF file into said path (as said in the OP, I'm using xnview x64 on x64 OS)
Code: Select all
K:/App/Something/XnViewMP/plugins/photoshop/USM2-x64.8bf
3. Nothing happened.
Compatible problem probably?
Is there a compatible plugin list?
Can you provide me a working x64 8BF plugin so I can tell if it's the problem of my plugins?
And I attached the plugin I was using to test, it works on photoshop x64

To prevent possible conflicts Photoshop-compatible filters shouldn't be placed in any of the “special” subdirectories of your XnView installation. (I keep all filters in
%CommonFiles%\Plug-Ins\ so I can point host applications to that folder.)

Free Adobe Photoshop Plug-Ins for XnView

Could you please extract/install the following 64-bit freeware plug-ins to
K:/App/Something/Plug-Ins/ or whatever and do some tests?

Tried two of them: luce2 & namesuppressed
What I did:
1. Create the folder you mentioned
2. Download & extract them to the new Plug-Ins folder
3. Start XnView-MP (normal starting & running as administrator)
Nothing happened :/
I'm sure those plugins you provided works well in Photoshop

All I want is just a simply Pixelize>Mosaic filter ;_;
Is there any alternatives for XnView
MP?
Sure I can using Photoshop to do this, but I hope I can apply a simply mosaic effect without launching such a complex program and waiting for it starting up for seconds.

Thanks for testing, BK201
As you pointed out earlier, certain filters will only run with Photoshop due to compatibility issues, …
… but the Luce plug-in is fairly simple. Let's hope that
Pierre will have time to look into this.

Too bad MP is missing the
Mosaic effect we have in Classic. Have you given Richard Rosenman's
Pixelate a try?
BTW:
PSFilterShim is able to host both 32-bit and 64-bit plug-ins under
Paint.NET.

Thanks for your recommendations, tried Rosenman's Pixelate, still not working on MP ( ´･ω･`)
Seems that I have to use Photoshop for Mosaic filter for another two years (or longer)
I'm not sure if this is just a compatibility problem since NONE of those 8BF plugins working on MP. It looks more like something wrong with the plugin handler.

I agree. That's why I'm hoping that Pierre will eventually comment on this.

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 0.84 beta 3.

Thanks!
I tested it, most of them now works, yet some of them are still not recognized (both x86 & x64 version).
Could you take a look at it when you have spare time?

Thank you for your feedback, BK201. I've moved this topic to "New/Open"; I guess further investigation will be done after the release of version 0.84.

Cool, but this is no longer a major bug for me since the Pixelate feature is back in 0.84 beta 3

@Pierre: There are still some plug-ins that do not work. Do you plan to look into this now or later (if later, this bug report will be moved to "Postponed")?
