.. but on earlier versions of Vegas, they work still!
Hey what is going one? Hitfilm Skin Retouch plugins are not working it Vegas 21. Why? It works in previous version but not in the new. Will it be working? What happened?
Is the plugin up to date? VEGAS has changed over the years.
If you are referring to the FX package called Ignite Pro that was the OFX bundle release by FXHome of many of HitFilm Pro's FX, you would need build 4.1 at the least of Ignite Pro in order for that OFX package to function in Vegas Pro 17 and above.
If you have Ignite Pro 4.1 or above, you will likely find the Ignite Pro plugin folder in C:\Program Files\Common Files\OFX\Plugins. I think that the workaround was to copy the files in the Ignite Pro folder named "....bundle" and paste iit/those into C:\Program Files\VEGAS\VEGASD Pro 21.0\OFX Video Plugins.
If that's not correct, hopefully someone will correct the advice - I just don't have Ignite Pro installed anymore so I can't check the relevant folders.
If your older versions of Vegas Pro were pre-Vegas Pro 17 and your Ignite Pro plugin package is earlier than version 4.1, you unfortunately are going to have a problem because Ignite Pro was discontinued some years ago and is no longer available to purchase from FXHome.
I have Ignite Pro 5 and Ignite Pro Skin Retouch is there and functional. It's also there in Vegas Effects.

@Reyfox, what version of Vegas do you have?

@Dexcon - thank you for good answer! But can't we buy a plugin in a official way? Doesn't that plugins supports Vegas?
I have VP21 Post 365. Ignite Pro 5 works all the way back to VP14. It was Ignite Pro 4.1 that didn't work after VP17.
But you can not buy Ignite Pro anywhere. FXHome (Arlist) stopped support when they bought FXHome. There were promises of "new and improved, you just wait!" statements, but they were all a big fat lie.
I have Boris FX Continuum Complete 20024 that has BEAUTY STUDIO as a part of it. It isn't cheap, but with full Continuum (suggest you buy around Black Friday sales), you get that and so much more.

@Reyfox Sir, have you tried VEGAS Pro 22 build 93? It no longer appears to be compatible with Ignite Pro.
When any Ignite fx is added to VP 22 build 93 on my PC, the preview went completely black; When two are added, the preview returned to its original state, but no effect was shown.
In 21 build 208, they work fine. So I think 22 breaks compatibility with Ignite Pro. Would you please test it? Incompatibility with any older plugin is leaving some users behind. While Ignite Pro has been discontinued, it could have been used as a useful plugin by those who had it before.
@zzzzzz9125 I too am seeing the same as you. I haven't tried Ignite in VP22 because I've shifted to BorisFX Continuum Complete. It has the same plugins with better control and more features. Also, with Ignite, I've had issues with certain plugins (like Lightning and Electricity) working with certain AMD drivers. Also, with there being no more Vegas Post (using Ignite in Vegas Effects), I think Artlist (terrible company killing a great compositing editor), I am thinking that VP22 left something out that would allow Ignite to work.
Yes, Ignite works in VP21 B315 on my computer, so I guess, if I ever have a need to use them again, I'll have to open VP21. So glad I went with Continuum Complete years ago. Yearly updates were less expensive than Ignite and offered far more.
Going back to my earlier comments in this thread, perhaps the ongoing changes to the 'engine' in Vegas Pro 22 has also distanced the now many years old and now discontinued Ignite Pro product - like changes to coding did in Vegas Pro 17 which required FXHome to update Ignite Pro to version 4.1 in order for it to work in VP17 plus - until now that apparently is. Given that Ignite Pro is now a dead product, I would not expect ArtList would be making any updates to Ignite Pro to enable VP22 compatibility. Even back in VP17 days, you needed to be within the then current 12 months purchase/update period in order to get the 4.1 update - as I recall.
These days, I don't bother to have Ignite Pro installed - it was good in its day but that ship has sailed. As with @Reyfox , I much prefer BorisFX Continuum Complete (BCC) which continues to update and improve that product.
