Patrick Idiart Posted November 15, 2022 Posted November 15, 2022 I have Nik Collection 4 which I had i stalled and was successfully using in Affinity Photo. I have recently purchased Affinity Photo v2 and have had nothing but problems trying to install Nik Collection. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Quote
RichardMH Posted November 15, 2022 Posted November 15, 2022 Does it work if you rasterise the layer? (i.e. have you bought it over from Develop as a RAW layer rather than a pixel layer?) Quote

It's hard to be sure, with a screenshot taken by a camera rather than the OS, but those do look like RAW layers to me, not pixel layers. Note, in my screenshot, that the top layer is a Rasterized (pixel) version of the RAW layer below it. There's a symbol to the left of the thumbnail for the pixel layer, and none on the RAW layer.

John Rostron Posted November 16, 2022 Posted November 16, 2022 I have Nik 4 working well on V1. I used the Edit > Preerences > Photoshop Plugins to tell V2 where my Nik plugins were. On rebooting, only HDR pro, the two Sharpeners, Siver Efex and Viveza appeared in the Filters > Plugins > Nik Collection menu. No sign of Analog Efex or Color Efex (not even greyed). The plugins that appear do seem to work OK. John Quote Windows 11, Affinity Photo 2.4.2 Designer 2.4.2 and Publisher 2.4.2 (mainly Photo). CPU: Intel Core i5 8500 @ 3.00GHz.

RichZep Posted November 16, 2022 Posted November 16, 2022 I had the same problem a while ago. I emailed DxO. From memory, which could be better, for some daft reason when DxO send the files they are not all in the same place. Have a dig about in Windows Explorer. If I remember the missing apps were in a folder called 'bin' HTH John Rostron 1 Quote Affinity Photo 2.5.3 / Publisher 2.5.3 / Designer 2.5.3 Affinity Photo Beta 2.5.5.2636 / Publisher Beta 2.5.5.2613 / Designer Beta 2.5.5.2613 AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12 core / RAM 32GB / Windows 10 Pro version 21H2
John Rostron Posted November 17, 2022 Posted November 17, 2022 I found the plugins OK when telling AP where to find them. They just did not show up in the Filters menu.
