Filter Forge 3.0 and 4.0 works very well with the new Photoshop CC

I have tried even more with selections, layers, and transparent background and any way I use it, FF3 and FF4 works right always

I have to say that I forgot to say that what I am saying is ONLY from the Windows 7 64 bit side, as I do not have a Mac to test it, so it could be good if someone with a Mac or someone from the FF team could confirm if it works right and well also in the Mac side

Hi, I have installed Filterforge Photoshop Plugin 3.014 Pro (Registered) and i'ts crashing Adobe CC.

Filterforge has been installed on my D: drive:
D:\GFX2D\Filterforge\Plugin\x64

I have copied the photoshop plugin D:\GFX2D\Filterforge\Plugin\x64
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Filterforge

When starting Photoshop CC and select Filter, I get this error:

Thanks for your help in advanced!

Thanks SpaceRay, I did exactly what you described (including tons of variations) - and still no luck. I only have Filter Forge 3 (preordered v4 but haven't installed the beta).

I always keep getting the same error: <class XFW::ArgumentError> The handle 0020B1C0 is not a valid window handle.

And yes, the config file (Filter Forge.config) has been copied into the same folder as the .8bf file.

Any other ideas or suggestions, please let me know.

it will detect and see that you have installed the new Photoshop CC

Our installer doesn't detect PS CC yet.

@Filstar: have you tried running the 32-bit version of CC with Filter Forge?

Thank you GMM abd SpaceRay for your reply! I sent an email to support 36 hours ago but they haven't replied yet :/

[SpaceRay] Well, you can try to reinstall Filter Forge...

I did, no change. By the way, I downloaded the trial version from the main website, there is no other download link that I should know of, correct? And yes, it only detects CS5, not CC but even then, it didn't copy any files into the plugin folder(?).

[GMM] have you tried running the 32-bit version of CC with Filter Forge?

I don't have Photoshop CC 32-bit installed, only 64-bit. But I tried it on my CS5 (luckily I haven't uninstalled yet):

Photoshop CS5 - 32bit - Filter Forge plugin WORKS

Photoshop CS5 - 64bit - Filter Forge plugin CRASH (of course x64 plugin copied into plugins folder together with .config file). The error message: "<class XFW::ArgumentError> The handle 0012B1B0 is not a valid window handle." appears.

[SpaceRay]...for me it works very well just putting the FF 64x plugin inside plugins Photoshop CC folder...

Lucky you. Hm, I wonder if it has to do with MS Visual Studio Runtime Libraries or .net Framework conflicts, missing or not being installed? Who knows. Thanks SpaceRay for your help, much appreciated!

Good news that you have been able to solve it thanks to the customer support

All was about changing that only setting? Something simple that breaks it

As said, good that this works

I am running PS CC on Mac OS X, and I have not been able to get the FF installer to make FF work as a plug-in. It runs fine in stand alone mode.

Edited to add: I tried deleting the Filters folder from my PS CC install, and copying the Filters folder from my old PS CS6 installation over to the PS CC install, and it worked!

So it appears to just be an installer issue.
