Jordan,

I received a response from Boris.
I hope this helps…..

There is a known issue with the BCC 7 shaders and Motion 4 that is being
worked on. If you want, you can go to MacHD>Library>Plugins>FxPlug and
there will be a BCC Shaders Bundle in there that you can remove and the rest
of the BCC plugins should show up and work in Motion 4 for the time being.

Thank You

Jordan,

I didn’t really fix this situation, I just found a work around.

I needed to work in Motion 4 and it was crashing on start up. Motion was saying BCC was the problem.

So in the BCC.dmg (download image) was a BCC un-installer. I ran that program and Motion 4 started working again. But I lose all functionality of BCC, which would be nice to have.

If I want a BCC filter, I re-install BCC from Same BCC.dmg installer, and I use Final Cut 7, for my effects.
Not an elegant solution but it works at the moment.

I have NOT heard back from Boris, Yet. I will probably give them a call instead of just their trouble shooting email path.

Good Luck, Let me know if you find a solution better than this.

I have noticed that my Motion 4 is crashing just after the splash screen.
The error message says the BorisFX BCC is the culprit.

I recently updated my iMac (mid2011) to Lion 10.7.1 and I am using the BCC 7.0.4 version.
All Apple Software Updates have been done, this includes ProApps..

My Temporary Solution is: To Use Motion 4… Un-install BCC. (obviously, I lose the great functionality of these plug-ins.)
I then re-install BCC and use in FCP 7.

Hopefully Boris will come up with a solution, soon.

I do have Motion 5 installed on my system, but not the other FCP-X or Compressor X.
BCC shows up in Motion 5 but does not work as per BorisFX press releases. Hopefully soon!
Although Motion 5 is really slow.
