Title: Need PNG loader from ImageFX 4.5!
Post by: Ral-Clan on June 15, 2014, 08:09:52 PM
Hello,

I'm a legal owner of Image FX 4.5 from Nova Design.  However, I upgraded to 4.5 using a legally purchased upgrade disc, rather than buying the ImageFX Studio 4.5 CD.

Apparently, the bug-fixed PNG loader (which allows one to load a PNG with Alpha Channels) was ONLY included on the 4.5 Studio disc, and omitted from the upgrade disc.
I think it can be found in a folder on the ImageFX Studio CD called "disk8", or in your ImageFX installation "modules" folder.  It's a very small file.

Does ANYONE have a copy of this version 3.0 of the PNG loader for IMAGEFX (released 2003)?  I use ImageFX all the time for all my main graphics work and the old buggy PNG loader is a major pain to use when working with alpha channels.

Thanks.

PS: I found an old message online where Kermit Woodal says he's going to make this fixed PNG loader available to previous 4.5 users, but I can't find a download for it - the original Nova Design website (with downloads section) was hacked and destroyed about 6 years ago.  The new site has no downloads section.

I would really appreciate it if someone can send me the bug-fixed loader.  Please PM me.  Thanks.
