Anyone able to make those work? I'm able to see them under plugins in Affinity, but not able to launch anything, basically nothing is happening. As far as PS Beta - NIK installation is not recognizing it as a possible host. The latest version of NIK plugins, supposed to work with Big Sur.
Got a tip for us?

This is more of a guess - Affinity Photo has been programmed to support Apple Silicon. i.e. no need for Rosetta 2. Nik on the other had (to my knowledge) hasn't been updated to Apple Silicon and does require Rosetta 2. This may be why they're not working. Did you contact DXO?
thank you. It's strange as the plugins get loaded into Affinity - you can see them, but clicking is not generating any action. I guess it's all gonna be sorted out.
@snowboarder, I don't have the Nik Plugins however it may be worth forcing Affinity Photo to run under rosetta to see if the plugins will work. To run any universal app in Rosetta rather than native Apple Silicon, go it applications select the App, right click and choose show info. Check open in Rosetta on.
THANK YOU!!! the option showed up finally and switching it on did make the plugins work.
Great to know, glad it worked for you. Hopefully Nik will update the plugins so you can use Affinity natively.
