Effect not working
These are heavy effects, it wil need time to render a preview to be able to display it, if you don’t have a good Macbook Pro with a dedicated GPU. To speed up this process you can change your render codec to Prores Proxy.
For some reason it freezes my fcx, any fix?
Your computer is too slow to handle it, as its build from standard effect and not a plugin.
Help I couldnt find /Users/ (yourusername) /Library/Application Support/ProApps/Effects Presets
thanks before
Follow the instruction in the video, not random search for it
Oh wow this is awesome! Thank you so much for providing this for free; You’re truly enriching the FCPx community with your projects
Only in FCP X? In FCP does not work?
Its made in FCPX 10.2 and not sure if they are backwards compatible but FCPX is very different from FCP so I highly doubt it be compatible.
Hey there, what are the system requirements. My computer has 8gb ram. Is that enough?
That you need to check with FCPX, these are presets so they are just save files of combined standard effects to achieve this effects. Because they are stacking several effects they can be heavy for certain computers.
Im only able to download the zoom in and out transitions, how can I get the spin transition and all the other ones? Thanks
Video already explain this is only the zoom
I downloaded them and have them in final cut but they don’t actually zoom in or out….The effects literally do nothing…??
You computer is not fast enough to directly render a preview, change your codec to prores proxy to speed up this process.
how about the another effect?
when you are going to release it?
thank you very much
i have a 16gb ram 27 imac and AMD Radeon R9 M390 2048 MB graphics card and it still freezes every time i load it! Any solutions ? surely thats enough
Set project render codec to Prores Proxy
Amazing!!! Thaaaaanks
