FredFace Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi all! I've been using PDN for about one year now, and I have 2 versions of it installed on my computer. Oddly, the first of these was version 3.36, which then prompted me to download and install 3.5.2 which doesn't appear to share so many features as 3.36. This confused me somewhat, and looking online didn't help either. Looking at the 'About' item under help on the tool bar clarified that 3.5.2 was newer (2010 as opposed to 2008) but a lot of the effects I regularly used with 3.36 arn't there! Could someone please explain why this is, thanks. Quote Tim32.org Seg Faults are Fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axle Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 have you ever added (downloaded) any effects ??? if so thats yor problem. go into the 3.36. one and copy the effects in the effects folder in the effects folder in the 3.5.2's folder (make sure you don't replace any that are already there) K Bai Quote My Deviant Art | My Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 The missing effects are probably plugin effects. Many of the plugins needed to be rewritten to work with the newer versions of Paint.NET. So, update your plugins by downloading them from the plugins forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredFace Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 Thanks for the advice! I just updated to v3.5.4 and realised that I copied v3.36 from a USB pen to my desk top (been wondering for about an hour how on Earth I even managed to have 2 versions installed in the first place). I didn't think I had downloaded any effects, but its probably the person I got my original copy from had downloaded them. Anyway, once I found my first 'installation' of PDN, copying the effects worked perfectly. Should just have checked which version of it I was looking at in explorer. Thankyou, can't imagine how much more time I might haved waste on this small issue. Quote Tim32.org Seg Faults are Fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 It might be a good time to redownload all of your effect plugins. My plugin pack has made significant changes since PdN 3.36.
