Lightroom for Windows - Topaz Fusion pre-release

[Eric Yang]

Hi!

The pre-release version of Topaz Fusion for Windows is available here:
http://www.topazlabs.com/src/beta/fusion.zip

Topaz Fusion Express is a plug-in that allows you to use Topaz Photoshop plug-ins inside of Lightroom. Fusion for Mac has already been out for a while, so now it's Windows' turn!

Please try it out and let us know what you think. Thanks

Eric

EDIT: fixed!

Well, I was happy to read your message, Eric. But the happiness didn't last long. Fusion installed properly and without incident, but upon calling it up as an External Editor, Windows immediately shuts it down (Windows has stopped working etc....).

I once promised myself to never, ever try a pre-release version of anything, and now I know why they're called "pre-release". Meaning: they shouldn't be released yet.

Eric....I got an application error when I tried to open Fusion from Lightroom. The application was unable to start correctly ( 0xc00007b )

Lightroom 2.6 64, Windows 7 64, 8gb Ram

Thank you so much for the testing. Since multiple people are having problem, I took down the download file temporarily to figure out what went wrong.

Will get back to you in a couple of days.

Sorry for the problem.

Albert.......Thank you for working on this. I know you and your team will get it figured out. I look forward to Topaz Fusion for Windows.

I am getting the same error with the same config, I get this error if I use the 32 bit fusion, if I use the 64 bit it works fine

I tried it also on LR 2.4, 32bit, win 7 32 bit, and it works fine with it

thanks for this update I just purchased the software last weekend so I am glad to see this

Please note that if you are using 64-bit Windows, please install ONLY the 64-bit fusion. No need to install the 32-bit Fusion.

If you are using 32-bit Windows, you only need to install the 32-bit fusion.

The zip package included both for easy download. Sorry for the confusion.
