What happened to Alien Skin Splat in CS3?

Hi all. I searched the forum and could not find a similar
topic... so I apologize if this has already been answered
elsewhere.
In previous versions of Fireworks I enjoyed the ease of
adding edge effects (such as pixilated or torn edges), but the new
CS3 does not seem to have the Alien Skin Splat filter built into
it.
Can anyone tell me how I can get that (or another similar
filter) for CS3? Or if not, can anyone direct me as to how to
implement a torn edge effect without the ease of the filter?
Thanks in advance for your help.

You're right, I don't know why? But if you still have any of
the previous
versions... In FWs 8 I found it in the Plug-Ins folder you
can copy Splat
LE-eng.8bf and Splat LE Core.dll into your Plug-Ins folder in
FWs CS3 and it
should work.

Alien Skin 'Splat' Wanted

Help! Does anyone out there want to sell a copy of Alien Skin
‘Splat’ or know where I can still get a copy from? I am
desperately in need of this software and cannot obtain it anywhere
including e-bay.

I agree with Sam (hi Sam :-) but in the unlikely case of them
not being able
to help, you could always try to obtain a second hand copy of
Fireworks 4?
Not sure when Splat ceased to be included with FWs, perhaps
someone could
confirm?

Alien Skin Splat LE and Eyecandy 4000 LE

Hi
I am looking to buy Fireworks and need to know if Fireworks
includes these filters. They are not in Fireworks 4 (which I have)
and I am not going to spend 2,000 dollars on something that doesn't
have what I want.
Thanks

As Linda pointed out, these plug-ins are made by Alien Skin
Software
<
http://www.alienskin.com>.
Splat has been discontinued and Eye Candy
4000 has been replaced by the updated Eye Candy: Textures,
Eye Candy:
Nature and Eye Candy: Impact. So it comes down to the
plug-ins you
wanting included being obsolete.
Alien Skin plug-ins are, IMHO, the best third party plug-ins
you can get
though so you'd serve yourself well by investing in them if
you're a
fan. The Eye Candy Effects Collection
<
http://www.alienskin.com/ec-effects-collection.aspx>
is a great way to
get the three Eye Candy packs as well as Xenofex 2 and Snap
Art for a
significantly reduced price. Highly recommended, especially
when you
consider that they'll work in a number of graphics apps. Hope
that helps...

What happens to aspx pages in DM CS3 after upgrade to CS5?

I am planning to upgrade from Dreamweaver CS3 to CS5. What will happen to my wesite created in C# aspx? Will the aspx DM extensions still work?

SnakEyez02 wrote:
Your pages will continue to work and you can continue to hand-code .NET pages. As far as behaviors and recordsets goes those have been deprecated so you will have to hand-code replacements.
The ASP.NET server behaviors can be re-enabled in Dreamweaver CS5 by installing the appropriate .mxp file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\DisabledFeatures (Windows). It's in a similar location in the Applications folder on a Mac.
Because the ASP.NET features have been disabled in the main product, they are no longer officially supported, but they should work.

What happen to plugins when upgrade from CS3 to CS4?

This question may have been asked before but I could not find in the forum.
I have a few plugins installed in my CS3 now. Do I need to manually reinstall all of them when I upgrade to CS4?
Thanks

Hi,
I'm assuming you are asking about 3rd party plug-ins.
Most likely you will need to reinstall for each version; But it depends on how you installed it. You may also need to check with the 3rd party about license and activation.
You can opt to install into the Ps plug-in folder for any given version, or install to a location outside of Ps and then point to that directory in the Ps preferences (see Preferences> Plug-Ins> Additional Plug-Ins Folder).
If you went the former route then reinstall to CS4. If you went the later, check the preference option and point to the folder.
BTW, don't just move the whole CS3 Plug-Ins directory over to CS4 because the set shipped with Ps get rebuilt and you will put copies from CS3 that are not compatible with CS4 into that directory.

Cs3, 'Digital Editions' NOT highlighted, what happened?

Hello friends, in CS3 indd, 'Digital Editions' NOT highlighted, what happened? Also, I am making a ebook using CS3 indd, how do I put 2 indd files into 1? If anyone can share links using CS3 indd to create epub/ebook for ipad, it would wonderful. I scanned and searched the sea of the internet for articles 'cs3 to create epub/ebook for ipad', i came up empty. I felt it was as if no one would use cs3 to create ebook for ipad. Thank you.

Hi Bob, you are saying I cannot upgrade just the indd from cs3 to cs5 from the Master Collection
That's exactly what I'm saying. You do have some choices though. You can upgrade to Design Premium or even Design Standard which would save you some money.
Design Premium from CS3: http://amzn.to/kZOsu7
Design Standard from CS3: http://amzn.to/ir5i7j
Or you could just buy a standalone InDesign license but that makes very little sense to me.
Sorry, but if you're getting into EPUB CS3 just isn't going to cut it.
I saw nothing in Peter's post that made it look like you upgrade just a single app in the suite.

What happens to the rendered animated buttons on sub-menus

I am on a 3GB of memory MacBook Pro using Encore (CS3). Here is a description of how I have produced a working DVD...so far 3 out of 5 DVDs I have tried to render have worked.
ANYWAY...seems that Encore implodes when I try to render the same project more than one at a time. Encore chokes and I am back in the MAC OS.
HERE is my main question...every time it blows it seems to blow away the RENDERED ANIMATED BUTTONS on the secondary menu. SO each time I try this again I have to re-render the buttons taking about 1.5 hours. Why do I have to re-render...why aren't the rendered 2nd level menus SAVED.
To make it clear...after I rendered the menus...previewed...saw the buttons are animated...SAVED...try to write a DVD Disc from the Current Project...succeed...try to burn another DVD...it aborts (why...I have no idea)...I empty trash...bring up Encore again...try to preview the secondary menu...NO ANIMATION there so have to rerender and start all over.
I have been reading about compatibility of DVD disc, computer players and DVD players...what a PILE...without all the techies our there we can't make a dependable environment to create, burn and play DVDs...these companies should be ashamed...all they are doing is producing a whole bunch of frustrated producers (or lack of producing producers).
Can anyone shed a light on my problem!?!?
Thanks, --bill
p.s. Are there better forums than here at Adobe? Seems I don't get many if any replies to queries.

Bill,
A couple of questions, mainly to make sure that I understand what is happening.
1.) There are two files (an audio and a MOV), that show in the Orphanage, when you Check Project. Do they appear there BEFORE you Check Project, or only AFTER?
2.) Do they appear BEFORE in your Project Panel, or only AFTER you Check Project?
3.) Since they are Orphans, I assume that you do not intend to use them in this Project - right? Were they ever in the Project (Imported as Assets, or Timelines)?
4.) Was this Project started fresh, or did you modify an existing Project, to create it, say using a Save_As, etc.?
5.) If they were not Imported into this Project, were they Imported into another Project, that is/was being worked on coincidental to this one?
6.) Can you find these files on your system? Where are they located?
If 1.) is After and 2.) is After, then your Project might be corrupt. The Assets/Timelines/etc. are linked to the Project by XML. This can become corrupt for many reasons, most are often unknown - power dip, or hardware issue on Save, etc..
Two ways to check this theory, is to start the Project from scratch, and see what happens. Another is to use a freeware program, XML Wrench, and run the Project file through it. Aside from pointing out broken links, and other problems, it should also allow you to search for these files names in the body. Save a copy of the Project file, so you will have it untouched, and then remove any lines, that reference these files. Save_As (new Project name) and open that in Encore. Being on MAC, doesnt every data file have a finder file, associated with it? Could this finder file be cross-linked, in some way, to your real Assets?
It could be that there is a hardware issue, and this causes the links to the Rendered files to become broken, and also to link to files, that should not be included. Any other strange things with your system lately? I do not know the MAC folder/file structure, but can you do the equivalent of Windows Check Disk? If so, set it to find lost clusters, or whatever MAC calls them.
Also, being on PC, I do not know what utilities might be available for your OS, or what other programs might be causing a problem. On PCs, other DVD burning software, especially if their packet-writing applet is installed, can cause havoc with Encore and are discouraged. Anything else installed, and/or running, that you can think of?
Sorry to play twenty questions, but Id like to be as clear, as I can, on exactly what is happening, before I make too many more guesses.

What happened to "weighted optimization" in CS4

In Photoshop CS3 and earlier, weighted optimization of JPEGs could be achieved by using the "Use channel to modify quality setting" button just to the right of the Quality setting in the Save for Web and Devices dialog box. This option no longer appears in Photoshop CS4. Does anyone know what happened to it or what can be used in its place in CS4?

hey but what about the lots of users who find this functionality very cool & useful indeed?
Is there a work around (I mean a simple & practical one)? Is there a compensating 3rd party plug-in?

On Lightroom 2.5 - What happened to the Softness Brush?

What happened to the Softness Brush on 2.5?

I got these instructions from others;
If you open the Preset Tab of Preferences, you should see a button near the
bottom that says Restore Local Adjustment Presets. Try clicking that.
OR,
Installing 2.5 should not affect your presets. I still have mine. That
said, Soften Skin is simply a preset that comes installed by default.
The settings are:
Clarity = -100
Sharpness = 25
Everything else set to 0
If you have presets that are not showing you can check Edit >
Preferences > Presets and see if Store Presets with Catalog is checked.
If it is, uncheck and restart Lightroom to see if that brings them back.
Otherwise you can just create a new preset with the above settings.

"unknown software exception (0x40000015)" on CC update. What happened?

I have no idea when in the update process it failed. An information window was on the screen when I returned to the computer.
It gives an exception number (0x40000015) and a location: 0x001e54a0.
And an "OK" button to terminate the application.
How can I determine what happened? What programs are affected?
thanks for any help
Peter

Hi petermclennan,
Please restart your machine and try updating again. If still the same error then kindly uninstall and reinstall CC desktop. Refer the article: Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6.
Additionally refer the thread: Unknown software exception 0x40000015 Solved - Windows 7 Help Forums.

What happened to the Adobe CS updates

Do you remember Adobe said late last year that they will be updating their CS3 apps for Leopard in February. Well I'd like to know what happened!
I still have my Photoshop bugs and Indesign does not "hide" itself when asked.

Do you remember Adobe said late last year that they will be updating their CS3 apps for Leopard in February. Well I'd like to know what happened!
You're asking the wrong crowd. Visit Adobe's forums to post this question. You'll have much better luck getting an answer there than here.
Not to hijack your thread but when is CS4 coming out?
No one here will know that answer, either. It's pretty safe to say though since CS3 just came out a few months ago, I wouldn't expect to see CS4 for at least another year.

What happened to the Adobe Help Viewer or Center for CS4?

What happened to the great help program that CS2 and then CS3 had? I don't seen any such program for CS4!!!!
Thanks, --bill

The help system has been changed again. If you are online the Help menu takes you to the Adobe Community Help Center (link to help is on the right), otherwise it loads a local copy from your computer.
You can use the PDF copy of the manual on your installation discs or download it from the Community Help Center.

Alien Skin Live Effects

Hi,
In my business I make heavy use of Alien Skin plug-ins.
Problem is, live effects don't work anymore. The filters from the
top pull-down menu works, but that's not a live effect.
Suddenly, making revisions to customer demands will be very
hard. Alien Skin claims this is a bug in CS3, and they can't fix
it. Is anyone aware of this, and is it being worked on?
This is really important to me, and I just have to imagine
it's important to a whole host of other people too.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dugan M.

Do you have the full version, or the stripped down version
which used
to install in FW 8 and earlier?
