John_Picton Dec 24, 2013 9:19 AM (in response to JJMack)Thanks JJMack.
I had already tried the folder you suggest (as it appeared the most obvious). It was when that didnt appear to work that I did a search that found the other path.
I now realise that the problem would appear to be that the filter I was trying to move is probably not compatible as other filters I have put in the folder you suggested are working.
So that was the long answer.....
The short answer is that you were right, and thank you very much!
Cheers

3. Re: Where do i put my .8bf files in CC
John_Picton Dec 24, 2013 9:29 AM (in response to John_Picton)Just to add an update to my own question.... A bit more experimentation identified that the plug-in I was trying is compatible with 32bit Photoshop CC and it works if I use it in there.
So a supplementary question... Is there such a thing as "bridging" software that will allow 32bit plug-ins to work on 64bit CC?
I can understand why it would be difficult to "bridge" 64bit Plug-ins to work in 32bit CC, but surely less difficult running 32bit plug-ins on 64bit CC...
Cheers

JJMack Dec 24, 2013 11:01 AM (in response to John_Picton)I'm quite sure it possible to write a plugin that will work in either it just requires code for the 32 bit and 64 bit environment and some test to see which its being run in and use the approbate code. But I know of no emulator or tans coder that will allow you to run a plug-in an environment is was not coded for. Check with the maker of the Plug-in the may have a 64bit version available....

John_Picton Dec 24, 2013 11:06 AM (in response to JJMack)Thanks JJ - I suspected as much.
I know that with VSTs in the music plug-in arena such bridging software does exist (jbridge) hence why it was worth asking the question here.
Thanks again.
Cheers
John
