The easiest way is the EffectCraft page on getartcraft.com. For a specific file, use the latest release on GitHub. In the file names, <version> stands for the version number, for example 0.9.2.
Windows 11
- Open the latest release.
- Download
effectcraft-<version>-windows-x64.msi. It fits most PCs (Intel and AMD, 64-bit). - Run the file and follow the installer. It asks where to install EffectCraft and offers a Create a desktop shortcut box.
- Start EffectCraft from the Start menu.
The release also has an arm64 installer for Snapdragon and other ARM PCs. The installers are code-signed and install for all users. Later versions install into the same folder.
To run it without installing, download effectcraft-<version>-windows-x64-portable.zip instead. It contains effectcraft.exe and the command-line tool effectcraft-cli.exe. The arm64 build has a portable zip too.
There are also 32-bit x86 builds, as an installer and a portable zip.
macOS
- Download
effectcraft-<version>-macos-universal.dmg. It works on Apple silicon and Intel Macs and is signed and notarized. - Open it and drag EffectCraft to Applications.
The command-line tool is a separate download for macOS: effectcraft-cli-<version>-macos-universal.zip.
