Filter Forge 2.0 Beta is here!
http://www.filterforge.com/download/beta2/index.html Unfortunately, the Mac version of the beta will be delayed by a day or two due to a weird bug in the Mac installer we're still struggling with, so check back soon. We haven't yet sent out email newsletters and press releases -- we'll hold them off until the Mac beta is online. Thank you for understanding! |

Fricken insane, I LOVE IT!
You win in my book. 
Wow the bomb function has so many options We walk through life building our castles but far to many cease to build the foundations. |

Wow, congrats on the release guys! The HDR pipeline was unexpected but I'm sure will be greatly appreciated by those who understand the uses. (admittedly, I'm not one of that crew yet)
I was playing around and the bombers and polygon are absolutely fantastic additions; I'm excited to see the possibilities from those. They also completely wipe out the need for a ton of snippets, which is nice to see. |

nice new toys! the bomber is gonna take me a while to get a handle on, but i'm seeing a few potentials there. dilla and uber and threedee, on the other hand, are probably gonna start building whole universes
 If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

Congrats!
A question about the key. quote "The beta is a 30-day fully functional trial of Filter Forge Professional 2.0. " Does that mean that every 30 days we have to ask for a new key? (I hope my key comes soon )May The Forge Be With You |

By Tezkatlipoka, the beta looks totally awesome! Congrats to the whole FF team for a well executed reveal!
Too bad I won't have time to play with the beta until I return from my vacation... 
Regardless, have fun playing all!  --- Crapadilla says: "Damn you, stupid redundant feature requests!" ;) |

No, just once.
Not quite so -- we're still puzzling over disappearing plugin files under Mac. We haven't sent out the press releases and emails because of this, so it's not even officially revealed yet. |

Since V2 can be installed without removing V1, I grabbed it. The bomber is pretty cool, just from 10 mins of messing with it. I guess I had been hoping for more new components, but perhaps those are on their way. Congrats on the beta release.

How about OpenCL/CUDA accelerated filters?
And filter plug-ins, perhaps? |

We've uploaded the update for Filter Forge 2.0 Beta.
Here is the list of fixes. Mac OS X 1. Filter Forge now starts under Mac OS X 10.4. Windows 2. Filter Forge installer now correctly imports files with Unicode names. Platform-independent 3. The first start after importing v. 1.0 filters is now much quicker and doesn't crash. 4. Fixed several renderer bugs. 5. Fixed minor bugs in filter search. This update doesn't introduce a new version, so you won't be notified of it automatically. If you don't experience any problems you may skip this update. |
