The update makes it possible to save Filter Forge projects as editable standalone files to share with other artists, and revamps the editions of the software available, cutting prices across the board.
Create custom filters for use with image-editing software or generate PBR texture maps
Filter Forge provides a node-based environment in which users can design their own custom filters for Photoshop, Affinity Photo and other 2D image-editing software.
Users can download readymade filters from an online library of over 13,000 community-submitted examples.
The software is also capable of generating seamlessly tiling 16- or 32-bit PBR texture maps from source images, including albedo, height, normal, roughness, metallic, specular and ambient occlusion.
Output presets are available for the Unity and Unreal Engine game engines.
New in Filter Forge 10.0: save and share project files
Version 10.0 of the software introduces the option to save editable project files that can then be shared with collaborators, rather than simply exporting finished images or texture maps.
Filter Forge .ffproj Project files package the source images for a project, their dimensions, and the filters and settings applied to them.
According to the developers, the introduction of standalone marks a shift from the software’s origins as a Photoshop plugin to a “document-oriented application [like] 3ds Max”.
Projects are currently only available in the new Studio edition of the software: about which, more later.
New faster-rendering Draft Mode for browsing filters
Other new features common to all three editions of Filter Forge include a new Draft Mode, intended to provide a faster-rendering, reduced-quality preview when browsing filters.
It reduces the size of the preview and overrides a filter’s default occlusion and anti-aliasing settings with minimum values, speeding up rendering by “up to ten times”.
Filter authors also get a new Bitmap Cache component, making it possible to rasterise and cache the output of processing-intensive parts of a node graph to improve performance.
Editions of the software overhauled, prices cut across the board
The release also shakes up Filter Forge’s pricing policy, cutting the price of the feature- and resolution-limited Basic edition from $149 to $59 and the price of the full Professional edition from $399 to $139.
The old intermediate Standard edition has been discontinued; and at the top of the product range, Filter Forge has introduced a new $259 Studio edition of the software.
It has the same functionality as the Professional edition, plus the new Projects system; and entitles users to two seats per licence rather than one.
Pricing and availability
Filter Forge 10.0 is available for Windows 7+ and macOS 10.12+. As well as the standalone edition, it runs as a plugin in Photoshop CC and above and, on Windows only, a range of other 2D image-editing applications.
The software is available in Basic, Professional and Studio editions, with MSRPs of $59, $139 and $259 respectively. You can find a feature comparison table of the three editions here.

There are 13385 filters available in the online filter library. Though you can freely download them from the website, we also offer Filter Library Backup, an archive of all library filters at a specific date in a single file – a convenient way to load all filters at once into your copy of Filter Forge.
Top reasons to get Filter Library Backup:
- You spend minutes, not hours or days, to load multiple filters into Filter Forge.
- You can load filters offline and use Filter Forge without Internet access or behind a corporate firewall.
- You always have a backup copy of filters that can be restored quickly in case of a crash.
Filter Library Backup + Librarian
Filter Forge Librarians
Filter Library Backup 10.0 plus Librarian 10.0 – best value!
All filters from Filter Library packaged into a separate Librarian app. You can preview and select specific filters to load them into Filter Forge without Internet access.
The recommended option is a package containing Filter Library Backup with Librarian – an interactive filter browser that simplifies import of filters into Filter Forge. It allows you to preview filters and select specific filters to be installed into Filter Forge. Librarian will automate filter installation (you won't need to copy any files manually); it also generates filter caches for Filter Forge. Librarian is a standalone program that is installed separately and doesn't run simultaneously with Filter Forge.
Filter Library Backup
Filter Library Backup 10.0
A single zip file containing all filters from online Filter Library. Unzip it to load all filters into Filter Forge at once and without Internet access. Does not include the Librarian app.
If you choose to get a Filter Library Backup without Librarian you will receive a ZIP archive of all library filters. You will need to unpack it and copy its contents to the folder that stores filters on your computer. This option doesn't allow you to select specific filters for import, so you will end up with over 10,000 filters loaded into your Filter Forge. Since there are no caches in the ZIP archive, Filter Forge may take a bit longer to start while processing the newly-added filters.
Additional Information
- Being an archive, Filter Library Backup doesn't have any update functions. Both Filter Library Backup and Librarian are linked to a specific Filter Forge version, for example, Filter Forge 9.0 won't accept filters from Librarian 6.0.
- If you want to receive an updated filter archive each time we release a new Filter Forge version, you may be interested in the lifetime upgrade license for a one-time fee that covers all future Filter Forge versions. Lifetime upgrades for Filter Library Backup and Librarian are available upon request.
- Note: Librarian requires a Library Backup license to operate. If you don't have a Library Backup you need to order both products.
