    No 3D Windows or Fire Plugins in Compiz 0.8.2

    In Ubuntu 9.10, I had more plugins than my current compiz manager does, such as 3D Windows and Fire.
    Are these plugins hidden or combined with other plugins now in 0.8.2 or do you have to download and install them?

    thanks in advance

    ^^ i'm using Lucid now

    I believe you have to either check something to add these to the menu, or install an add-on. I remember having to do something to get the extra effects in 9.10, but it's been a while so I can't remember exactly what was required to enable them.

    Hi,

    Do you have advanced desktop effects settings installed ? If so there are also Compiz extra plugins in the repository and ppa's as well.
