AP and topaz studio 2

[blacknight 4]

Will affinity photo work with the new topaz studio 2 version just released?

Hi blacknight,

While we are not on their Supported Software list, i just installed the trial of Studio 2 and it appears to work okay on my Mac.

Works fine on Win10, but keeping keeping studio 1 as a plugin as well for the fast preset views.

I had previously been using studio 1 with affinity photo, and that is what it defaults to now. How can i get it to use topaz studio 2?

Probably installed it wrong, but the plugin version has no looks in the add look drawer. The stand alone has many.

I just added it as another line in the photoshop plugins doohickey in the preferences.

I can't get it to work on Win 10. I added the same line as shown above. Then when  I select a Studio filter it says "Error: launch plug-in failure." and an OK button. Once "OK" is clicked the usual "You are using a Topaz Labs plug-in...." window pops up and Photo is frozen. I have to use Task Manager to stop Photo.

This is with Beta .424

ahh - added the folder in preferences and it does indeed work now - thanks all!

I've been trying to get TS2 to work on Mac OS but am unable.  Can you offer assistance on where AP is pointing to in order for the plugin to "work ok"?  I can start TS2 from a JPG file but not a RAW file.  With a JPG file, there are no LOOKS available.  Thanks in advance.
