Then I suggest that the plugin files you are adding are not *.8bf types. Nothing will be added to your plugin menu unless they are.

It is a .8bf type. I just downloaded the "Luce" plug-in from this site: http://tutorialdb.org/a-z-of-free-ph...s-and-filters/
And it does not show. As far as I know, I have followed all your directions right; I am not sure why it is not working.
Luce installs fine following the directions I gave above.
Though it doesn't work in Xara because this filter requires an active selection marquee which Xara doesn't do (because it's a vector application not a raster)
The entry in the plugin list in Xara is Amico Perry
I followed the steps. For some reason, it doesn't work for me. I have tried to call the support phone number listed in my manual. It rang to Magix. They said they couldn't help me and to contact Xara. Xara doesn't have a phone number on their web site. I sent a comment for help on their web site and have heard nothing. I am extremely dissappointed in Xara at this point. I cannot get in contact with them for help. I wish I had never purchased this now. The store I bought it from doesn't take returns on opened software, and Xara won't respond to me. I feel like I just wasted my money.
Hi Keith
some clarification please
can you not get any external plugin to work which ones exactly have you tried?
thanks

Keith are you placing the .8bf files in the plug-ins folder or are you placing a .zip file in that location?

I don't know which version sledger used - I just tried with the legacy [ver 1.9] luce plugin, and got a result of sorts
on left simple bitmap
on right plugin applied [point light source] - you get a box round it, like you often do in xara..
Keith - not all photoshop plugins will work..
