Loading OFX Plug-ins

On start-up, Nuke scans various directories for OFX plug-ins that bring additional functionality to Nuke. Paths to these directories vary between operating systems, but here are examples of where you may find them:

Linux:

/usr/OFX/Nuke

/usr/OFX/Plugins

Windows:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\OFX\Nuke (or, when using 64-bit Nuke on 64-bit Windows, \Program Files (x86)\Common Files\OFX\Nuke)

C:\Program Files\Common Files\OFX\Plugins (or, when using 64-bit Nuke on 64-bit Windows, \Program Files (x86)\Common Files\OFX\Plugins)

Mac OS X:

/Library/OFX/Nuke

/Library/OFX/Plugins

If you want Nuke to look for OFX plug-ins somewhere else you can. Just define the environment variable OFX_PLUGIN_PATH to point to the new directory.

For example, on Mac OS X using a csh or tcsh shell:

setenv OFX_PLUGIN_PATH /SharedDisk/OFX

Or, if you're using a bash or ksh shell:

export OFX_PLUGIN_PATH=/SharedDisk/OFX
