First thing:

You should NEVER install anything inside the application bundle.

That is not the correct thing to do, and may even make the application fail completely.


The correct place to put your generators would be


/Users/<yourname>/Movies/Motion Templates/Generators/<category>


I tried your generators, and they did not work at first.

Then I opened one of them in Motion (control-click in the browser, choose Open in Motion), resaved it and it worked - kind of. I did not test all of them, but at least some did have stuff that fills the frame and covers the intended "smoke".
