Can you guys and gals tell me what plugins work in Xara?
I used to have a few installed, but, guess what, I can't remember what they were called.
I had one which would allow me to apply the look of a flag.
I changed my Laptop a few years ago and just hadn't bothered with any plugins.
But, now I would like to get back to installing them again.
There is a quite a few Rik, but I think you might be referring to these. Image skill-for making a waving flag, AV Bros-page curl,
Redfield plug-ins have a number of plug-ins that work well in Xara.

all the mehdi plugins I have tried work
xenoflex 2 used to work with xara don't know if it still does
Yes, Xenofex 2 and the AlienSkin EyeCandy 4000 that were released together still work well in Xara.
I went through a phase a few years ago, where I searched for FREE 8BF filters and downloaded them, but I really only wanted them because they were there. I used hardly any of them.
There were (and still are) hundreds of them that work very well within Xara. Redfield and Mehdi has a few really good ones. Also look at "Harry's Filters" ... a lot depends on what you want to achieve.
Hi,
Topaz labs - I only have 2 of these
FilterForge
Athentec Perfectly Clear
except that I haven't yet been able to make FilterForge and Perfectly Clear work with Xara, yet. I think that they need the Photoshop plugin installed.
I already have Image Skill, Magic Bullet, Redified, Mehdi, Xero.
I'm not sure if I had Xenofex or FilterForge.
I'm sure I had AlienSkin and EyeCandy 4000.
I wonder where I saved AlienSkin and EyeCandy 4000?
Thanks for your replies, everyone.
Can't find EyeCandy 4000. I know I had it, because I bought EyeCandy 7.
EyeCandy 7 crashes Xara.
So, I have to find EyeCandy 4000.
No. Can't find EyeCandy 4000.
If you had a serial number for it, it should still show up in your account. If so you can re-download it from http://support-dl.xara.com/programs/alienskinec4000.exe
Moved to Xara Graphics Chat.
Thanks for your help, Keith.Quote:

However, it's lucky that I saved the serial numbers.
So, your help with the link to Eye Candy 4000 is EXTREMELY helpful.
And I've managed to download Xenofex 2.
I'm hoping that's about it.
Cheers, everyone for helping.
OK.
I've got Xenofex 2 to work as well.
I must be an idiot because for some reason I cannot locate my plugins, I clicked on fx but nothing anyone have an idea where I should be looking that I am not?
Try start in Windows then in Start Search, type Plugins or in Xara, Options, Effects and Plug-ins, click on set up and you should see where your plug-ins are located.

Just as a matter of interest, if anyone need to redownload the Alien Skin Xenofex 2 plug-in, it can be found here ... http://support-dl.xara.com/programs/...inxenofex2.exe
Thank you Stygg, have already done that but I still cannot find them. Actually the new icon doesn't show when I click fx and I don't know where it's located and can't seem to find it.Quote:

Hi guys! first I have moved this thread into our plug ins forum :)
I have the Eye Candy version 6 which was the last version to work properly in Xara software. I have been trying to find out if it's possible to purchase a license for V6 but so far Nada. which is really too bad as it has some really nice improvements over the 4000 version that was bundled with Xara.

Thank you Frances.
As our friend Gare says,
My best,
Larry
Is Eye Candy 6 available for download from anywhere?
There is a place it can be downloaded but you need to have a valid license key and here is the worst part I contacted Alien Skin and they absolutely refuse to sell any older versions or make them available in any way unless you already purchased it when it was current. It really sucks!
Firstly, where can it be downloaded from?Quote:

I even explained that I purchased Eye Candy 7, but, it crashes Xara Designer. They still won't sell Eye Candy 6.
I seem to remember that I did have Eye Candy 6, but, I cannot find it. It has to be on a hard drive somewhere, but WHERE???
On the Alien Skin Site they have a download upgrades page at the very bottom of this page they have a link that leads to older installers which leads here: https://support.alienskin.com/hc/en-...Old-installers
you will find a list of old versions including Eye Candy 6 but if you don't have a previously purchased license key to activate it you are out of luck. This is what makes their stance so frustrating the downloads are right there, and all people need is a way to legally obtain a license key.

Hi Frances,
I am still waiting for you to reply to my query about FilterForge in the other post about it. I still can't get it to work.
I'm sorry I can't find which thread you are referring to start a new thread or post a link to the old one and I'll see what I can do to help. my time for TG these days is limited but I do apologize for missing your need for help.
