Ft Pattern Suppressor

[Chain]

Did you try the Adobe Exchange-version?

Or perhaps upgrade to CC2017 or CC2018 to see if that helps? You can have multiple versions of Ps installed at once if you still need CC2015 for some technical reason.

---

I will grab a Mac and install CC2015 to test once I find the time.

Just tested and the actions+plugins run perfectly on CC2015 on Mac. I tested both CC2015 and CS6 running macOS 10.13.3 (High Sierra). No problems. They showed up and ran fine.
I did not fancy reinstalling with an older OS to test that though.

(CS6 and older requires manual install, but any CC-version will automatically install the plugins if you are subscribed to the Exchange-version).

Ron and Chain, thank you - just given this a go, the youtube tutorial was a massive help. Removing the size and bit depth limitations of the early iterations of the FFT filter, and the actions to assist, mean it's almost hassle free all the way .
<EDIT> Just looked at all stages of the Grayscale action in 2.5 and it looks like it's grand. Most likely user error.</EDIT>
But I'm just blown away as to how easy you've made the whole process, and the efficacy compared to my attempts with the FFT filter years ago.

Hello,

I'm very excited about using your actions/filters. However I'm getting the same error as some other folks. I am using a 64bit version of PS CC 2019 ver 20.0.1 I also have the 6 .8bf files in the plugins folder of PS CC 2019. However like others they are not showing up in the filters submenu.

The Action starts to work when I hit Play, but it stops on Filter and the message box pops up which says "The command Filter is not currently available." So I hit Continue and after all the action steps are done the end result is an image that looks like a negative and there is no mask with stars. The mask is simply all white.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You from a newbie to your forum

I believe that ver 20.0 update of PS2019 did not carry over the libfftwx64_3-3.dll file from PS2018. Have a look in folder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 for that file. If it is gone, go to the download of Pattern Suppression as it is in that zip file.

Thank you Ron and I apologize that I forgot to mention that I am using it on a Mac and I don't believe the dll file works on a mac. Is that correct? I saw something in the thread about downloading the Mac version but the website only shows one version to download. Please let me know if that is not correct. and thank you for the response.

[Ron Chambers]

On the Mac that file is contained in each *. plugin file so the update to PS wouldn't effect the programs. You should have six *. Plugin files not *. 8bf files on the Mac. Do you have have *.plugin files or *. 8bf files??

Looks like you got the Windows version . I'll go see how it is setup to get the Mac version and come back to you.

I can only download the windows version. Let me bug Chain as the website is his chore.

Ron,

You are absolutely correct. I have the *.8bf files not the plugins. I cannot thank you enough for your help!!

Hello Ron,

I found the Mac version on the Adobe exchange as the website indicates. TY again for all of your help!!

I see there is a bug on the website; it sends you to download *both* v2 and v2.5 (that includes the Mac plugins). Make sure you use the 2.5 one. :=)
Not sure why it is happening, but I will get it fixed.

Edit: It's fixed now.

Thank you Ron & Chain! it works like magic. Cannot thank you enough. I can confirm this works fine on a Mac using a 64bit version of PS CC 2019 ver 20.0.1
