Autofx Gen1 bundle 64bit and 64 Paintshop Pro X8

Paint Shop Pro don't recognize the plugins,

i tried different options, after setup the plugin folder from the preferences the plugins are still not recognised.
(AutoEye_Gen1, DreamSuite_Ultimate_Gen1,Mystical_Suite_Gen1) for the Photgraphic Edges if i manually copy the plugin PSP_X6_PLUGIN_FOLDER to the Paint shop Pro X8 folder, then this plugin works.
But i still have no solution for all the others.

Hmmm, that sounds really frustrating. I'm afraid I don't have the AutoFX tools - they are way too expensive for me to consider. I'm a complete newbie to PSP X8 but It sounds to my layman's ear as though the problem is that PSP is not "seeing" the plugins. Have you installed some of the free AutoFX plugins (http://www.autofx.com/download-free-photoshop-plugins/) to test with PSP X8? Do they work? Also, it might be worth thinking about uninstalling PSP X8 and the AutoFX tools, and then reinstalling them both to see if the problem is not related to previous registry entries, perhaps.

Good luck! I hope you get it sorted out.

If you also have a later version of 64bit photoshop installed, try installing the plugins again and selecting Photoshop as the destination. After installation and a reboot point PSPX8 Plugins to the actual Autofx plugin folder in your Photoshop plugin folder. I haven't tried that with this plugin but some months ago when I first installed X7 I couldn't get some plugin or other to work with X7 but it installed and worked with CS6 and when I pointed X8 to the Photoshop plugin folder it was recognized and worked with X7. It's just something to try - no guarantees. I've done the same with a 32 bit plugin or two that won't install natively in X7 32 bit but install in Photoshop 32 bit with some success.
