VFX Plug-Ins

I am thinking about purchasing a plug-in for special effects and awsome transitions. I saw that Ulead lists VFX plugins on their website as partner products. Have any of you used either VFX Flash Factory, VFX Mask Plug-In, or VFX Flash Transition Plugin? Do they create some awesome effects and transitions or would I be wasting my money?

I have all of them, and the worked fine in MSP 6 and 7. But not in MSP8.
I sent them an email about them and they said, they are going to look into it. That was about a month ago...nothing yet.

Hank,

I have Holywood FX. To get this to work in MSP8 I had to copy the plug in from the MSP7 VFX sub-directory to the MSP8 VFX sub-directory.
have you tried this with your plug in?

Yes, I tried that, but with no success. They are in the folder, but they won't
show up in the editor.

Hank,
I do have VFXmask, VFXflash transition, etc. and they are working well with MSP8.

When installing, the VFX???? couldn't detect MSP8 program but I selected the vfx_plug subdirectory as requested by the VFX???? installer.

I have all of them (the 3x VFX programs) appearing in my transition selection and can use them without problem.
Brgds,
Bernard

Bernard,
I juat tried that, and in the editor when I click on VFX plug
I get an error message: "cannot load data buffer" and locks up
the whole program. Oh well, thanks anyway.
My OS is XP PRO.

Hank,
I have WINXP Home Edition SP2 but do not believe it makes a big difference. Just by curiosity, what is the version of your MSP8 ?
Did you buy the box or the downloaded version. If the downloaded version then is it the one that requires internet to activate or the serial number only.
I do have the ESD (download) version that did not require the internet activation.
Just asking in order to see the difference between you and me.
Kind regards,
Bernard

Bernard,
I have the download version 8.00.002. And of course I can't use the hot fix—it locks everything up. I have reinstalled MSP8 three times now. They did send me an activation key to start with , which I only had to use once.

Hank,
The version I am using is the 8.00.0033 including the HotFix.
I initially installed the ESD (download version) that did not require internet.
Do not know if it makes any difference but, I would first try to get your MSP8 up to date with correct version.

Good luck.
Bernard

Bernard, I emailed Ulead for a full version. They gave me a site that to down load the full version. However, when I started to download it told me it would take over 4 hours to download—and I have DSL! after 4 tries,
I gave up, and emailed them back and asked fo another site. Still waiting.
I could download the trial version in 15min., but that's the one I have now.
unless they have upgraded it??

Took me that long too. I wanted a solution to the problem though so just let it run through the night. It's fine now, but I must admit it did strike me as a little odd.

The site they gave has expired, so I will request another try at it.
The faster I go the behinder I get.

Well, I did the long download and reinstalled MSP8 full version.
Still couldn't install the patches, and the VFX trans. still locked up
my editor. Other than that, things are ok.

Hank,
- What is the version of your latest MSP8 that you are now running ;
- Can you explain a bit more how your did proceed with installation of the
VFX plug-in.

Regards,
Bernard

Bernard,
My new version is 8.00.0028.
I did as you said, only to find that the actual trans. are not in the
folder.
So I copied the original folders from my laptop and put them in my desk
top computer...they are in there now, but effects sill locks up.
I down loaded the latest demo version and it works fine, except for the red line they put across the frame. I sent them an email to see if we could work out something since I have paid for them.
