Did you add them to x4 plugin folder?
Did you setup paths?
Did you check enable host specific plug-ins?
The default location for the filters has changed for 4.0.
They go in the Program Files > Xara > Xtreme (or Xtreme Pro) 4.0 > Xara Picture Editor > PSPlugins folder.
If you install Alien Skin and Eye Candy from the Xara site using the default settings the filters get installed in the wrong folder. So when you do an install you have to make sure to specify the XPE > PSPlugins folder.

Others have reported they did this and they still don't work. Please let me know. I contacted Alien Skin about this and they sent me back to Xara.
I've got - working - Alien Skin stuff installed in XXPRO4/filters. Try making a new folder, install to that and add the path with the Live Effect Tool, Setup button on the info bar

Hi,
Some older plugin versions will search for photoshop.
So i have a folder called photoshop in programfiles and have the plugins install to there.
After all installations of the plugins i copied all 8bf(and some others with a folder structure)to a folder called xaraxtra and have the xtrempro plugin setup
point to this folder.
No problems with reinstalling anymore as i have the plugins outside the structure of xara and will not be uninstalled after an uninstall of xara.
Also handy if you use other apps that use the plugins aswell.

Hi,
how did you get to work ?
I tried to change the Plugin Folder settings, but is does not work.
Alienskin Xenofer 2.1 does not install itself at all. Just after entering name & Licence the setup says that this Plugins Requires Xara installed (!!)
Regards.
I had a problem similar to this when 3.2 was released, and I contacted Alien Skin who sent me a new install file that worked for the new Xara version. Maybe this is what is happening here? I'd contact Alien Skin and tell/ask them.
I repeat - Alien Skin is sending people back to Xara regarding install issues with X4
I don't have the special xenofex for xara but the normal version for photoshop
that's why i can install it anywhere
