What is required for this filter to produce seamless tiling?

You can try to go to the filter editor, go to overrides, say that you want seamless tiling, save and rename the edited filter, go to options and set it to seamless tiling.

BUT the colors aren't aligning so I can still see the seams -- maybe someone else can offer a better solution!

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to make a diamond pattern like this seamless with Filter Forge. There is a trick but it requires a bit of post processing in an image editor. I prefer to do it with paint.net but Gimp, Photoshop and GraphicConverter will do jsut as well (GraphicConverter may be the the best option):

+ Set proprotions to 0 and check the Square Pattern and Seamless Tiling checkboxes
+ Save image - preferbly at a higher resolution than you need
+ Open with an image editor
+ Increase the canvas size to twice the original
+ Copy and paste so you have two complete repeats horizontally and two complete repeats vertically.
+ Rotate the image 45 degrees
+ Crop the image down to 1.41 times the original size (square root of two) - give or take a pixel or two.
+ Scale the image to the resolution you want. If you want a stretched diamond shape like the default, set vertical resolution to twice that of the horizontal.
