Re: Xara Xtreme and Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer
Back to the original question:
what are the differences between Xara Xtreme and MAGIX Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer?
I just checked with Xara Group. Most important difference is that Magix' Xtreme is available in several languages: German, French, Italian, Spanish and Dutch.
Apart from that the start-up splash screen in MAGIX Xtreme has some adjustable options. And MAGIX' Xtreme comes with a little utility ("Face perfector"?) that Xara Xtreme doesn't have.
Re: Xara Xtreme and Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer
Have any of you found the create brush fuction in Magix Xtreme.
I cant find it in my version 3.1.2778 Aug. 28 2007.( I know it's old :).
I can import brushes I made in Xara but cant make any in Magix.
Just wondering if this is fixed yet.
Re: Xara Xtreme and Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer
Hi John,
Good to see you again.
The trial version I am using 3.1.3567 Dec 17, 2007 does not have the create Brush feature.
This is the latest trial version available from the Magix web site.

I was under the impression that Xara Xtreme is also available in several languages? I know we have many members who post screenshots which show Xtreme in their language.
The Startup screen is a 'Project Wizard' which will launch different MAGIX programs based on what you want to do.

Magix Face Perfector is an AVON skin product :D
I can find no such named Utility with Magix Xtreme anywhere.
There are no photo tools with Magix Xtreme except for some of default (demo) plugins shipped with Xara Xtreme.
The other LE's are only available after launching Magix Photo Designer
Double-clicking a bitmap gives you the same XPE or Magix Photo Designer7 option that is shipped with Xara Xtreme 4.
It also comes with a re packaged Panorama Maker.
In Windows 7 - custom toolbar settings are not saved (Xtreme4 doesn't share this bug in Windows7)

No, Xara Xtreme is only available in English, but apparently NetJapan has developed a Japanse version. But Xtreme PRO is available in English, Spanish, French and German. However Xara doesn't actually sell the German / French / Spanish versions of Xtreme Pro, Magix do.

AFAIK the last officially statement from Xara Ltd. about Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer was from 2007:

Re: Xara Xtreme and Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer
This MAGIX release is based on the 3.2 core. What's the point comparing it to Xtreme 4 ?
Re: Xara Xtreme and Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer
John, talk of "cores" is perhaps meaningful to you as a developer but it doesn't say much to the consumer. The point is there is confusion in the marketplace when there are many related versions being marketed at the same time without much info on why one would choose one version over another.
Threads like this can help end some confusion (or add more) :D

Re: Xara Xtreme and Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer
I mean, you have to compare it to Xtreme3.2.
All the new features that were introduced with Xtreme4 are missing there of course.
Re: Xara Xtreme and Magix Xtreme Photo & Graphic Designer
I can't see who is comparing it to Xtreme 4 John?
Bill certainly mentioned is was like Xtreme 3.2 and my mention of it was only that Xtreme 4 included Magix Photo Designer as well.
It's very easy to see that MXPD is based on 3.2
Point is, should the OP choose to buy the Xara version over the Magix version, he will at this time only get Xtreme 4. Right?
