AITCH

I wasn't going to but I thought sod it and bought FF12 (60% discount) It works in AP2 but I definitely noticed a difference on my 8gb laptop in speed/performance when wanting the effects to be added. Ah well I guess there's worse things to worry about in the world lol Have a good day everyone 👍

'But they're not the same products'......ok mate thanks for clearing this up

iPad users get a sweet deal every time 😏 Surely all customers should pay the same price for the same product?

This is the solution

Is it only Windows users that are experiencing problems with Filter Forge and AP2?

Hi Jane I'm a Windows 10 user (I'm not bothered for W11) and I just purchased Affinity Suite version 2, unfortunately my copy of Filter Forge 9 has now stopped working. I've read somewhere that it isn't compatible with the latest version of Affinity Photo and in order for me to use Filter Forge 9 I must purchase FF12 now (which is compatible). I'm not interested in an upgrade to FF12 or discounted price, all I want to do is use my perfectly fine FF9 I used to use in Affinity Photo 1 and install it in Affinity Photo version 2. Why should I have to pay twice for a product I already own? It's just not right and extremely bad practice on Serif's/ Filter Forge's part. Can Serif and Filter Forge resolve this asap please for us Windows users? Thank you in advance 👍

Thanks mate, I wasn't aware 👍

I think you have a good point RC-R, Mac users don't seem to be experiencing any problems. The special procedure for Windows users presently is to purchase Filter Forge 12, it's compatible with AP2 😏👎

How have you guys got FF9 working in Affinity V2? Fair play to you like but I just can't do it

OK so Filter Forge 12 trial working in Affinity Photo 2 but there's not a cat in Hell's chance I'm forking out more money for upgrade frpm FF9 when it works perfectly well in Affinity V1, bloody ridiculous 👎

I received this message this morning from Affinity regarding the FF Internal Error message: This is a result of us switching to MSIX installers I'm afraid as this installs the software as a Windows app which is sandboxed making the apps files hidden. This also means the app no longer uses a .EXE file so unfortunately at this point in time its not possible for it to be used as an external editor in other apps. We are working on providing a .EXE in the future to solve this problem, however at this time we don't have an ETA for when this will be available.

Yeah I did that and it still doesn't work but thanks anyway mate

Looks like I will have to keep V1 too then for the time being in order to use FF9, thanks firstdefence 👍

You're not on your own, it;s really annoying me too (Windows 10 user)
