![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Inside Adobe create a folder called Plug-ins, then inside that create a folder called CC, then paste the Luminar4.8bf file into that directory. In explorer go to the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files and if one does not exist, create a folder called Adobe. Now we need to copy it into the Adobe plugins folder, a folder that you will most likely have to create. Once there, locate and copy the file Luminar4.8bf. In my case it’s C:\Program Files\Skylum\Luminar 4. Just go with the defaults and don’t worry about the plugins portion if you don’t already have Photoshop installed.Īfter Luminar is installed, navigate to the install folder in Explorer. Installing Luminar 4 with Affinity Photoįirst, install Luminar 4. If you are simply interested in learning more about Luminar 4 be sure to check out our hands-on video, it’s an impressive program. Therefore in this tutorial we will show how to get Luminar 4 up and running on Affinity Photo 1.8. Luminar 4 is an AI powered image manipulation program that’s easy enough even I can use it! One of the challenges though is that it doesn’t formally support Affinity Photo out of the box, and Affinity Photo is my photo manipulation weapon of choice. It's a shame this app isn't plugin capable.This tutorial is going to be a little outside the normal topic of game development but should still be of interest to some of you because Luminar 4 is currently available on Humble Bundle. I'd like a sophisticated lens flare tool/filter in affinity but if it doesn't at least match or exceed LFS for me, there is no point and Affinity would be hard-pressed to match the level of sophistication LFS has in producing the light effects that LFS can. For me, that solution is Len Flare Studio (LFS) by Brainfever. If an app is lacking a feature, I find a solution until such time as that feature is eventually included in the app. I've never, used a lens flare brush because they are fixed and do not have the nuance and colour variegation (Chroma split) one would expect in a lens flare, if anything, I'd use an overlay so I have the colour information. Perhaps I’m the only one who prefers the much more fluid and user friendly experience of a dedicated lens flare tool. Which do you prefer, a fully encompassed and unified lens flare tool (with the extremely valuable preview option), or stumbling around with lens flare brushes and their inherent usability flaws? I’m curious to know if you’re happy with the segregated lens flare brushes from Affinity that don’t offer any preview on the canvas and make you back track on everything whilst trying to find the most appropriate flare? I understand where you’re coming from with the Photoshop lens flare tool. That could also be sacrificed two, three nights or a weekend for a picture! But everything should go quickly and be in no time at all for the wastepaper basket! Many of my PS images were for the trash. When I was still working on my pictures in the chemistry photo laboratory, I spent much longer tinkering with a picture in addition to my job. So far I've gotten everything done the way I wanted with Affinity Photo. If you don't want to familiarize yourself with Affinity, but always use Adobe as an example, you should think twice! I keep reading, just like PS, I've never felt that way. I'm glad I don't have to work with the overpriced PS that's moving in the wrong direction. I don't understand why PS applications are being asked for again and again. Das könnten auch mal zwei drei Nächte oder ein Wochenende für ein Bild geopfert werden! Aber alles soll schnell gehen und ruck ruck für den Papierkorb sein! Viele meiner PS-Bilder waren für den Papierkorb. Als ich noch im Chemie Fotolabor meine Bilder ausgearbeitet habe, da habe ich neben meinem Beruf, viel länger an ein Bild getüfftelt. Wer sich nicht in Affinity einarbeiten will, sondern immer Adobe als Beispiel bringt sollte sich mal Gedanken machen!īisher habe ich mit Affinity Photo alles fertig gebracht, so wie ich das wollte. Ich lese immer wieder, einfach wie PS, das habe ich nie so empfunden. ![]() Ich bin froh nicht mit dem überteuerten und sich in die Total verkehrte Richtung bewegenden PS arbeiten zu müssen. Ich verstehe nicht, wieso immer wieder PS-Anwendungen gefordert werden. ![]()
