Alexandria, VA, USA (August 29, 2008) – Filter Forge, Inc. today released the update 1.013 to Filter Forge, a Photoshop plugin that allows users to create their own filters. The current update adds batch filter processing, improves rendering speed and fixes several bugs. You can now batch-render any number of saved filter presets using the new command-line renderer. The renderer is included into the update as a separate executable file. For more information, please see the Command-Line Renderer article, in the Miscellaneous help section. Additionally, a number of speed and usability improvements were introduced. The rendering of filters that use lighting environments and certain components has been sped up by up to 20%. Also, the Undo function in the Filter Editor now works after saving, and the Filter Forge website now supports CoolIris (formerly PicLens) – a browser addon for viewing images in the 3D environment. How to update: To download and install the update 1.013, select Tools > Updates from the Filter Forge main menu. The update preserves all downloaded and user-created filters, as well as user settings and the license key.
