Hi Mackenzieh

We'll clean up before Easter? :bump

You have duplicates (double entries in the menu, e.g. Pastellise, Illustrator) which you have to get rid of.
If you hold the mouse over the filter name - you will see the name of the file (and location) - remove the 8bf that cause the problem.
I suggest leaving only files from Rod (all works for me). I do not know what (and what duplicates) the xero_plugins32 and xeroxl directories contain.

I still have errors when trying to run them and I'm using FilterMeister.. no duplicates.

Errors using a filter:

Get rid of the FilterMeister. I said Xero plugins, or any other 8BF filter does not require you to use FilterMeister.
Why would you want an extra step and another host? They work via PSPI.

PSPI in my plugins folder, PHOTOSHOP folder in Gimp user folder. NO FilterMeister.
All Xero Plugins work as expected.

I still get errors even though I have uninstalled FilterMeister

Within Gimp, it still says that filter meister is needed. I am running windows 10 64 bit.

The only XERO Filters I can get to work are the XL ones:
Baddream
Caravaggio
nostaligia
porcelain
softmood

The ones that Rod posted are the ones that were in the zip files xeroset 1, xeroset 2, xeroset 3, and xeroset 4 are the ones I can't get to work. Is there a way to do that?

Okay now I was able to run into same problem on Win10 64-bit. I'll try another download, there seems to be different versions.
One of the sets were "patched" in 2010 and those didn't work.

I thought so because they were the ones asking for filtermeister. The others that worked were xero_plugins32bit.. Rod's plugins didn't work.

Yes, you're right. I got same error window. I don't remember bumping into this problem on Win7.

xeroxl and xero_plugins32bits from the link I posted earlier work:

Code: Select all

Thank you MareroQ. I couldn't find the ones from 2009-2015. I will try these out. They work.

The filter I used was clarity

I also tried the Xero Graphics filters and those also failed.
