Dear all,
I need some advice with filters not appearing after install.
I used GIMP many years ago and not very familiar with the new version of GIMP 2.10.
In the past I have used Photoshop filters/plugins which used to work but some of them now don't anymore.
Another strange behavior I ran across yesterday is when I install the old Photoshop Xero filters it interferes with my Photoshop Artistic sets already installed. When I install the Artistic filters from Photoshop it automatically adds it to the Artistic filters coming with GIMP which is great. But when I install the Xero filters and it shows up in GIMP, it deletes these extra Photoshop artistic filters from the list. It is great that they work both in GIMP but not keeping both in the filters list together. There seems a conflict problem between the filters although they are in completely separate folders. As I mention I am new to this version of GIMP and not sure if I maybe install them wrongly!?
And then I have another old Photoshop filter which used to work way back in GIMP, but now install it, it don't show under the list at all. The filter I am trying to install is called "Impressionist.8bf", and is not related to the GIMPressionist which is part of the installed filters in GIMP. I am not sure if I will be allowed to add this filter here and will do that when it's okayed.
There are more of my older Photoshop filters I want to install but not sure if it will work or not. I don't have Photoshop installed on my new laptop.
I hope someone have some advice regarding this conflict problem or why some old filters don't work. All advice is much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Laura
