    Hi, great forum!
    I have Boris Red and just installed Final effects. How can I see the filters inside Boris Red? (cannot see the filters in the filters list).
    Thanks, Dan

    Hi Dan,

    Can you please tell me what the exact versions of RED and FE that you have installed and also the type of machine and flavor of OS you are using? I’ll need this info before I can provide you with an answer to your query.

    Thanks,

    Peter.

    Hi Dan,

    The most likely cause of the problem is that the filters did not correctly install into RED. To install the FEC filters into RED you must follow these instructions:

    • launch the FEC installer
    • select modify
    • uncheck FEC 5.0 for Adobe After Effects
    • check FEC 5.0 Custom Install 16 bit and also FEC 5.0 Custom Install 8 bit
    • when you see the prompt for a directory for the 16 bit filters, point the installer to this location: C:\Program Files\Boris FX, Inc\BorisPlugins4Common
    • when you see the prompt for a directory for the 8 bit filters, point the installer to this location: C:\Program Files\Boris FX, Inc\Lib

    When the installation is complete, relaunch RED and the filters should show up and operate as expected.

    I hope this helps.,

    Peter.
