Filter Forge - Noob question: ffxml files (and how to use them)

Active Topics Search

JenniferK Posts: 26	Hi, I might be missing the obvious, but I've noticed posts with links to ffxml files which I assume are either filters or parts of filters. How am I supposed to use/incorporate them? Or are they only "for" serious coders or people with high end versions of Filter Forge?

The file is placed in the My Filters folder (near the bottom of the upper left pane) and should run at that point. One caveat: you can't run a FF9 filter in FF7 for example. The code may be experimental, so be aware of that too. Math meets art meets psychedelia.

Stupid things happen to computers for stupid reasons at stupid times!
