FF compatible with Corel Painter 11 ?

Hi guys,

Well the title says it all:

Is FF Pro v. 1.015 compatible (as a plugin) to Corel Painter 11 ? What needs to be done if FF was installed before Painter ?

Thanks!

I might be mistaken but I think Painter 11 (eleven) is still a distinct product:

and is the one I am asking about. Thanks.

Thanks GMM! It does work

Note: You also need to copy the Filter "Forge.config" file from the 'C:\Program Files\Filter Forge\Plugin' folder and put in the 'Plugins' folder in Painter as well.

This is very interesting and useful news, I did not know that you could also use FF with Corel painter 11 !!!!

And suposse and think that it will also work with the new Corel Painter 12.

I have to say that Corel Photo Paint is a very different product than Corel Painter.

People have been discussing plugin support for Painter 12 on other forums, and it seems Corel has discontinued support for plugins in Painter 12.
You can use certain tricks to make a 32-bit plugin work under a 32-bit version of Painter 12, but we will never add official support for a host application that doesn't officially support plugins.

Thanks for your answer and the news that I did not know about this, very interesting to see this thread in Corel Painter Factory forum, it seems that is not clear about it, as you it seems that it works ONLY on 32 bits, and also if you make a folder and put there the plugins.

Of course, I agree that FF inc. and no other company would never support a host application that doesn´t support plugins by default and in a easy way.

I really have never used any plugin in Corel Painter, so it´s not really a problem, and you can use FF in Photoshop and standalone.

I am sorry, BUT this is NOT the same thing, you said at first that there was NO "Corel Photo Paint" meaning as I undestand that it does not exist, and that it confused the name with "Corel Paintshop Pro X4" and now after you say that this is because Corel Photo Paint is not available to buy it as standalone software.

SO does this mean that if you can´t buy a software in it´s standalone version and JUST this software alone, means that this software DOES NOT EXIST ? And that this is a WRONG name because it must be called Corel Paintshop instead ???


I agree with you that is true and you are right that now in 2011 you CAN´T buy JUST Corel Photo Paint in the corel website (You can´t find it there) and must be bought included inside Corel Draw Suite, but this does not mean that this software is NOT available and it does not exist and only exist Corel Paintshop Pro.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO BUY JUST AND ONLY COREL PHOTO PAINT ALONE ?
YOU CAN DO IT !!!

Although you are right and is true that inside Corel website you can´t buy it, IS NOT TRUE that you CAN´T buy it anywhere else in the world.

If you really want to buy it you can in the AMAZON store as Corel Photo Paint 10.0 and it will cost you 99.99$

Although this would be a stupid thing to do because this as you said, is an old version, and there is available the NEW Corel Photo Paint X5 included in the Corel Draw X5 Suite, and IT WOULD BE MUCH CHEAPER than the 100$ asked for Corel Photo Paint 10.

BUY COREL DRAW X5 for ONLY 45$

There is a educationa and academic version of COREL DRAW X5 SUITE sold on amazon for ONLY 45$ !!!!!!

AND EVEN another version that can be seen here for 85$

AND THE VERY IMPORTANT THING is that to be able to buy this YOU DO NOT NEED to be a student and show the student certificate to be able to use this software as it happens with Adobe products, you can buy it an use it as a home user, although is said that this can´t be used for using it in commercial businesses, but if you want it for your home this version is WAY much cheaper than the real one, and it includes all the same sofware, what is NOT included are all the other extras of fonts, graphics, photos, clip arts, templates,etc.

i'm sorry, but effectively there is no corel photo paint. your link to amazon showing that it is available is kind of funny. i'll grant you that technically you're right, but effectively it's a dead product. amazon has had it listed since 2002 and shows it rated as #19868 and 'discontinued by manufacturer'. they also arent even sure if it's mac only or mac and pc. they list it both ways. so, like i say, technically, you're right, but effectively this is a dead product and is now incorporated into other programs by corel.

and, psp was not originally from Jasc Software. Jasc bought out the rights from the original author quite a few years ago. i know this because i had one of the early versions when it was still a free/shareware type program and it was catching on so Jasc bought the guy out. but back in versions like 4.12, which was my first version, it was still just the original author working on his own.
