Installation instructions

All the windows archives available are self-extracting archives. Just copy or move the archive to the plug-ins directory of your graphics application (read the manual if you do not know where that is) and double-click on the icon. Now just click the Extract-button and the archives will be installed.
Alternatively, you can specify a destination subdirectory if you wish to install from another directory, you can browse to a directory or type it in manually.

A new subdirectory will be created by the installer, except for the Premiere archive since Premiere cannot recursively scan subdirectories.
Note that some applications will not allow you to specify subdirectories in the plug-ins directory. In order to use the plug-ins with these applications, just move the content of the subdirectories to the main plug-ins directory and everything should work just fine.

You will need to have the file "msvcrt10.dll" in the Windows/System directory in order to use these plug-ins. In most cases this file will already have been installed, if not than you're likely to find it with some other application installed on your computer. If you cannot find it anywhere on your system you can download it by clicking here: FTP server, HTTP server.
You'll need a program such as WinZIP to extract the file.

• Director 5.0
  All you have to do is copy the .8bf file to the Xtras directory.
  Then choose a cast member and go to the Xtras menu and hit Filter Bitmap.
  A list of all the installed PS plug-ins will show up.
• Painter™ 4.0
  Since there is a large number of Plug-Ins available here, Painter
  4.0 seems to load as many as it can depending on the amount of RAM available.
• Paint Shop Pro™
  1. Once Paint Shop Pro is installed start the program. Then you must load a picture into it or open a new file. Then go to FILE PREFERENCES GENERAL PROGRAM PREFERENCES. A requester will open up. Select the tab called PLUGIN FILTERS. There are 2 areas that you can type in called (FOLDER INI Section). You must type in the exact path of where your filters are located. Then press OK. After that go to the IMAGE menu and at the very bottom you should have a directory or name called Plug-in Filters. That's where the filters should be.
  2. You're using either the Beta or Shareware version of PSP, these won't run any Adobe compatible plug-ins.
  3. You've downloaded the wrong type; you should have the "Compatibility" type (filename: "rp...exe") filters. The others (filename: "up...exe" or "pp...exe") require the file "plugin.dll"
     which is copyrighted by Adobe.
  4. You don't have the file "msvcrt10.dll" installed in you Windows/system directory. You can download this file from anywhere on the internet.
• PhotoDeLuxe
  The filters work in Adobe PhotoDeLuxe but you have to select File>Preferences>Long Menus, then work with files using the "On Your Own" button. Plug-in filters are available, not on the easy-to-reach PhotoDeLuxe Modify > Effects tab, but on the harder-to-select Effects menu along the very top.
• PhotoImpact™
  The filters all work provided the MSVCRT10.DLL file is present.
• PhotoPaint 7.0
  Most plug-ins will work, although it does seem that versions before 7.0 no plug-ins will work.
  For version 7, it has been said you need both MSVCRT10.DLL and MSVCRT.DLL loaded in both the Windows and Windows/System directories.
• Picture Publisher 8.0
  The UnPlugged plug-ins will work just fine although installation requires some manual work. You'll just need to copy all the .8bf files from their directories into the main plug-ins directory. The plug-ins will still show up in their own submenus within Picture Publisher 8.
  Make sure the MSVCRT10.DLL file is installed in the windows or windows/system directory.
