Upgrading from Previous Versions

When you upgrade to this version of FxFactory and re-open projects where FxFactory plug-ins are being used, Final Cut Pro or Motion may complain about missing plug-ins. The error message will only appear if the plug-in in question has received substantial improvements under the hood.

To solve this problem, remove the instance of the plug-in from the clip that is generating the error, and re-apply the same effect as usual. The downside is that you will have to readjust the parameters to match your previous settings, but the improvements to the plug-in should make this worthwhile.
The complete list of plug-ins that have been upgraded are: 3D Image Random Spacing, 3D Text Cloud, 3D Text Grid, 3D Image Grid, 3D Lit Sphere, 3D Shatter, 3D Sphere Map, 3D Ventilator Shaft, 80s Music Video, Twisted Dissolve, Matte Shape Generator, Image Mask Wipe.
