firstdefence Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 For Mac Lens Flare Studio from brainfevermedia is a decent app for all things flarey. Example of flareiness as seen from the cargo ship Helios III shipping the now illegal but highly prized Blue soup to the Clangers unbeknownst to the soup dragon.

MCFC_4Heatons Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Quote For the non-destructive part it doesn't work,so no redo or adjusting an already applied filter. Better use a duplicate of the image. That would take it to the next level i.e. being able to apply third party PS Plugins in a non destructive way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCFC_4Heatons Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Quote From the many filters I have, only some work and most give an error or just quits the bridgetool. So no useful addition for me and thus not worth the money Interesting because I've had the opposite experience with the MediaChance Bridge ... May I ask which 32 bit PS Plugins you tried to use with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the non-destructive part it doesn't work,so no redo or adjusting an already applied filter. Better use a duplicate of the image. When I tested the 64 bit version of Knoll Light Factory 3.2 in Affinity it actually worked on one occassion! Mostly though the plugin is launched and when you try to apply/save the effect Affinity Photo then crashes. As I understand it Red Giant are no longer developing the Light Factory plugin for Photoshop, their concentration is on video. So, in a weird way it would could make sense for Affinity to get Knoll Light Factory working inside Photo, because (a) Photo doesn't have a native lens flare effect and (b) At least they won't have to worry about updates to Knoll Light Factory breaking the integration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCFC_4Heatons Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Just off track slightly, but on the subject of Phoptoshop Plugins - Jixipix plugins seems to work in Photo and Star Filter Pro which is a nice llittle plugin also works (tested on Windows 10) .... Might be useful to somebody ..... I hope the Affinity people get wider support for more plugins in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are more important fixes and additions to get out before adding more effects filters. Lens Flares can be added with lens flare overlays or plugins that have lens flare capabilities such as FilterForge.

moovme Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Thanks, I appreciate there are work arounds, but there is still no specific tool to do the job and save all the messing about with worthless brushes and pixel overlays. WHY was this not added from the very beginning?? Are you deliberately not adding this in for secret reasons?? What are they please???...
