CSP is on sale right now, thought you d/ic/ks should know Bought

>>2869839
but ive already commited theft

>>2869849
now you can repent and buy it. how about not being a fucking jew once in a while?

>>2869839
It's on sale all the time, nothing new.

>>2869839

It's rather confusing how the version called "pro" is the less complete of the two

I've pirated it to be honest. But I'm thinking of buying it since there doesn't seem to be a way of accessing the bonus material without a license. Can someone who owns CSP confirm if the downloadable content is any good?

>>2869873
It's mostly brushes and 3d stuff.
But I was able to access it with a pirated version, you just need to make an account.

>>2869865
This
It's so cheap, I don't think anyone has an excuse in this case. I wish any good software was similarly priced

>>2869873
>downloadable content
t-there's downloadable content?

Why would i buy a shittier photoshop that I get for free?

>>2869916
There's mountains of free downloadable content, yes.

>>2869923
It doesn't try to be Photoshop, it's not primarily for photo editing, it's for drawing, which it excels at compared to Photoshop.

>>2869839
What's the difference between Pro and Ex? Is it worth getting Ex?

>>2869970
Does it chug as much as photoshop? Especially with different brushes? Because that's an annoyance.

Wow, my patience got rewarded. CSP Ex here I come.

>>2869973
You can look up all the differences on their page. For me it is the unlimited frames in animation that is most appealing.

>>2869839
i swear i'm gonna pay for it. when i get a real job.

also designdoll, zbrush core, and perhaps someday even photoshop.

>>2869973
EX is meant for professional manga/comic artists. A lot of the differences involve page and print settings, you won't need this stuff for drawing single illustration pieces.

Should also note the PRO version is limited to 20 or so frames of animation, whereas the EX version is unlimited - that's if you're interested in animation.

Those are really the only differences.

>>2869977
I've personally only noticed slow down when selecting the decoration tools. They're like stamp tools, I don't even use them, was just checking what they were. I've not had any issue with general drawing and painting.

The PRO version gives you some fun options if you make comics. For example, a 3D preview so you can check how it'll look once it's printed (which is insanely useful for spread pages).

Bought it a few years ago and still think it's been worth it.

If you get it and a couple up years later they update from (random version numbers) version 1.1.0 to 1.2.0, will you be able to update for free?

>>2870042
I bought it a couple yars ago, I've been able to update everytime without problem.

When did torrent become such a mess? I've been pirating through various means since the 90s, but stopped a few years ago, because prices had finally started to stop, and the various services you can pay for had become more convenient than pirating.
Now that I'm trying to get CSP, it seems like every torrent site is fake or filled with malware. It's like being back in the early 2000s.

>>2870079
Doesn't that require an invite?

>>2870088
Nope, just wait for the 1st or 15th of every month and registrations will be open, everything is also freeleech at the moment.

>bought it at full price a week or so ago
I drew something nice and wanted to save it
Oh well, was worth it either way, its a great program, would recommend

isn't this on sale like, every other month?

If I try to use a somewhat big brush it just starts laggin, is there a fix for this?
Its the only reason why I havent bought this yet

>>2870075
I initially pirated it from torrentproject, it was all in Japanese and the translation files that come with it don't translate everything completely.

£20 is super cheap for what it is though, would recommend just buying it.

I tried both PS and Manga Studio and the latter is soooo better for inking and drawing. Anyway, I had it on my old pc before it went nuclear, can I find a cracked copy somewhere? Maybe on cgpeers?

>>2870130
buy it, its 100 bucks for the ex version

>>2870126
I believe this happens with texture brushes

Sub tool palette > stroke > reduce gap spacing

It'll improve, but may not help completely.

>>2870132
Well as an artists and uni student I'm everything but rich, I also already bought a copy so my conscience is clear. I'm searching for a decent torrent, I'm not interested in all its features like 3d models and spaces, I just want to use it to ink

How is this compared to Paint tool SAI?

>>2870139
>I just want to use it to ink

The pro version is meant for that, it's on sale for $20, it's more than worth it.

There's one on torrentproject, all your tools will be in Japanese though, as will the materials browser.

>>2870141
Much much better, holy fuck anon.

I still don't understand why people use PS instead of this, it feels way better, even for coloring

>>2870161
PS isn't in Japanese for one and the brush sets that only exist in PS.

tried dicking around with the free trial for a few minutes, seems kinda cool but the brushes feel weird compared to how i paint in photoshop.

are there any good videos of people painting w/ csp? most of the stuff i've seen is purely linework

>>2870161
Because CSP is horrible for painting. PS still wins when it comes to that.

>>2870221
Proof?

>>2869839
Does CSP have a history brush, or did I just flush $25 down the toilet?

>>2870221

How so? It has superior blending and a overall smoother brush engine.

>>2870221

You know who's horrible at painting?
Your face.

>>2870199
Because its just better for linework and comic creation.

I have yet to see Mangastudio doing brush job as good as Kyles brushes on photoshop

Should I get Standard or EX?

Reminder that there are plenty of free assets in the shop if you're looking for brushes and other shit

>>2870286
>>2870293

Or better yet just name them so I can copy the brush shape and convert it to CSP brush format. I think I could do a pretty good job

I never realized how much bad inking was holding me back. I don't know if it's my settings or what, but it's literally impossible for me to do lineart in Photoshop, without spending hours and hours redrawing the lines, then going over them again to manually add lineweight. It's gotten so bad that I just stopped finishing lineart.
However, the stabilization feature in CSP cuts it down to a fraction of the time, and it looks considerable better on top. It's just crystal clear.

That being said, I now see where that artificial look in a lot of amateur animu art comes from.

can i share my key with another person if i buy CSP? I know someone who would love to use it, and i love to use it too (At the same time)

>>2870320
Can you me an example of this artificial look

>>2870322
I can't find any examples right now, but it's characterized by mediocre art combined with very clean lineart with completely random lineweight. The lines are usually thin at the ends and thick in the middle, like it's an automated process.
It really sucks the sense of volume and depth out of a picture.

>>2870320
Damn I'm starting to sound like a shill but there's also a line correction tool and a vector thing that lets you adjust lines and change thickness easily

I don't use them (heck I don't use even half of what the software offers, I only do mindless sketched like a damn retard) but I guess it's helpful

>>2869839
call me when it goes on sale for $15 like it usually does

>>2870347
Shill me harder. I have until the weekend to make a decision.

>>2870320
Photoshop doesnt have stabilization, no shit MS will be better at stabilization.

Just download Lazy Nezumi for PS if you want stabilization. Works equally or better.

>>2870347
Doesn't that only work with vector art? I only do raster.

>>2870349
Uh I don't know there's a perspective tool that locks your lines to VP, and 3D models you can pose and use as reference

Probably a whole bunch of other shit I don't even know about

>>2870350

Lol. Lazy nezumi is total garbage compared to the built in stabilization in CSP. You clearly haven't tried both extensively.

>>2870359
Damn perspective grid and 3D model, good shit. Is the 3D model cute? I saw object assets too in the preview. Are those good?

Okay, open invitation to all doubters about Clip Studio's painting abilities. Name a photoshop brush and I'll convert it in CSP format and we can compare how it handles. Should be fun

>>2870370
Hard Round

>>2870356
not a shill, but ive used CPS / Mangastudio / Illustudio (all the same shit). the vector lines are not true vectors, you can draw lines over eachother in a vector line layer then erase parts you dont want and it will clean up lines way fucking faster than manual work

>>2870370
Ok, sure. Frankly I would be grateful if you manage to convert it properly

3D model looks like this, you can adjust their bodies and poses as you wish. There are animu-models in the shop, they're free. I think you can import your .obj files from 3D software too if I'm not mistaken but I haven't tried it.

I looked up the 3d models earlier, and they were kinda shit. You have basic models, which aren't detailed enough to be of any use, and a couple of anime models you can download, which look good, but are kinda useless for drawing anything other than those specific models
.

This is what vector layers are for. The only definition of vector CPS uses is that it's still editable after you put it down. other than that it still behaves like a raster.

>>2870477

I don't see why photoshop wouldn't be able to create that, you can take any rectangular shaped brush tip and choose direction for angle jitter

>>2870483
already told you, photoshop fucks up the directional jitter because its stamp based, painter's engine is more sophisticated even for the basics like that

>>2870481

I think I fucked up with some of the settings, turn off pen pressure for density and adjust the pressure curve for brush size so the right handle is in the top right corner if it isn't in the brush I uploaded

>>2870485

Painter's brush engine has a ton of options more than photoshop, so there's plenty of things you won't be able to reproduce exactly.

that said, Painter's unable to reproduce photoshop's basic hard round brush, despite having like 10 different ways to manage opacity.

at the end, photoshop's the superior tool. most of painter stuff is just bloat oriented to do faux real media bullshit

Photoshop creates an astounding ammount of hiden temp files no matter how you mess with the settings.

>>2870723
I was a long time SAI-only user before finally caving in and buying CSP, and let me tell ya... inking in CSP is just SO MUCH BETTER! The feel is far more natural and fluent, the stabilization just feels completely different then in SAI and gives you more control without feeling syrupy.

I have the regular version of CSP and it's more then enough for my needs. When it comes to coloring I'd say it's on par with SAI, but has a few more layer options. I still use SAI a lot for sketching (since you can turn the stabilization completely off there) and painting. SAI is still more lightweight and intuitive, but CSP will def be worth it if you do a lot of lineart.

Get it and use both! (you just need to save your files as psd and you can work on them in both programs, as well as doing after effects in PS)

I love csp but I always seem to get a slight lag feel in it. It feels like a mild stabilizing affect but I've turned every stabilizer I can find all the way down and messed with a bunch of settings. It drives me nuts honestly so I end up sticking with photoshop. :(

So how do you use brushes that have been downloaded from Clip Studio Assets?

>>2871434
I just started using CSP yesterday, and my experience is the opposite. Photoshop always lags, but the un-stabilized brushes in CSP are incredibly responsive.

Surely it's just like having a very well done construction to base your drawing off, it's not as bad as tracing a photo or anything.

Checked for you, no. But maybe there's a titty monster in the asset shop.

The models are kind of limited, and there isn't a very good selection to choose from. You're better off with Design Doll or whatever it's called.

There are some decent models you can download, but they're not very useful, as they only really help you to draw that specific character. Really wish there were nude models, as they would be far more useful for posing and reference.

I don't see a single valid reason in this whole thread why it would be better to use this instead of photoshop. Like if you don't need linework, who cares?

>>2871607
>nude models
Create one for us anon

>>2871750

Your loss then :^)

>>2871750
Do you mean just for drawing/painting? Because its comic options alone are worth it if you don't.

Painting will be a matter of preference and I honestly like both. Line work definitely feels smoother on CSP though.

>>2871024
Usually, but right now it's actually the same price.

Win 10 update fucking killed my Sai, can't save canvas for some reason, so I switched.
this CPS is okay i guess, tool switching is kinda laggy and the select/deselect brush got placed somewhere else.

>>2871566
I just put them all around QWERASDFZXCV, such that I can reach them all with my left hand.

>Win 10 update fucking killed my Sai, can't save canvas for some reason
That happened to my SAI and I think it's how SAI blocks piracy.

>>2871998
yeah, it happened quite suddenly though, not sure if the update altered the registry or something.
It's quite a pity too, I really liked the responsiveness of Sai.

Well yesterday i got refused for the third time at the same company after my 7th ( total phone+tests+final) interview, and I just applied again. Eventually theyll fuck up and say yes.

I don't think im skilled enough to be an artist, I'll try story telling though, write an amerimangos first 5 chapters, get told i suck at story telling and am delusional then give up.

>>2870739
im serious on pretty much any offer that sounds like a joke, I will legitimately fix your resumio

Earlier versions of manga studio were able to load obj models exported from all kinds of packages.
You would pose the models in the external program, and export it to the mangastudio, to use them either as reference or final graphic.
Aparently, the new clip studio don´t load conventional 3d files as the older versions, which seems like a way for them to make money: compress the models in a proprietary format so they can sell you the models.

>>2872327
i can import .obj just fine..

>>2869849
Good for you, because i fucking can´t find a torrent for this shit.
Where in the heck a guy can find a torrent without malware these days?

>>2872327
What's the point of importing unposable characters into CSP? At that point, you might as well just use a screencap from the original 3d software.

>>2872433
i actually use photoshop :)

i'd buy it if it was only 100-200 forever

>>2872433
>>2872464
I can find torrents for MANGA STUDIO 5 EX, wich is just the bloatware version of the Manga studio i already stole (i think mine is 2 EX or some shit).
Anyway, Smith Micro try to charge for the shitware in my local country currency, wich is denied by my credit card (my goverment try to impose a 50% tax in conversion to local currency, so the credit card company only process digital content sold in dollars). Since is the same for Paypal, i can´t buy the fucking software. I missed this deal and i´m stuck with the pirate version, and that´s fucking IT.

>>2871566
I use F to flip canvas, C to switch between foreground and transparent colour, R to rotate canvas, ctrl + U mapped to a tablet button for colour correction, and alt + ctrl mapped to a pen button for size control (hold button then drag pen).

>>2872478
boo hoo, i bet you can't even draw a proper figure.

>>2872511
>alt + ctrl mapped to a pen button for size control
Size control of what, the brush? sounds interesting. How do I do even apply such a thing with drag option?

Brush size, yes. Go to Wacom tablet properties, create an application profile for CSP and input alt + ctrl as a modifier for one of the buttons on the pen (lower button feels better).

Then just hold down the button, put the pen tip to the drawing surface and drag left or right to change the brush size.

>>2872741
Oh wow that's perfect, I've been using two buttons on my tablet to increase or decrease brush size, now I don't need that shit anymore

Thanks anon!

Is there a way to make the windows float in CSP? As it is, they snap to the edges of my screen and take up way too much space.

>>2872741
>>2872743
I mapped that button to right click, then changed the function of right click in CSP to resize instead of eyedropper. It's one of the three premapped options you can choose from.

onlt if you make a 10/10 figure that would make loomis and vilppu proud.

>>2872760
Good idea, can change size and stilll use the usual right click function on layers and such.

no.

thats right flargan.... NO FEET.

Whenever I make the size of pen / pencil tools around like 2, the line gets faint.
I really like inking at this size, so what settings do I have to tweek to fix this?

i bought it. i hope i like it better than manga studio, but for $25.00 i don't really care if i end up never using it again. i really do hate doing linework in photoshop.

>>2869839
I have the money for the Ex version but I'm not sure if I should do it. Convince me.

Iv'e been doodling shit for a couple days trying to figure out decent ink settings, but the lack of responsiveness even at 0 stabilizer is kinda throwing me off

You can turn any coloring layer into a screentone layer and then screw with the settings until everything lines up. This is a really lazy way of doing things but it's Fun(tm)

>>2873312
Good stuff you've got there, got a blog I can check up on for more?

It's cooler to use CSP, you made the right decision.

if i buy it, can i install it on two different pc?

Digital copy or physical?

>>2873872
yes but you can't use them at the same time.

>>2871520
I'm actually much too old for this shit, so I guess that might be a problem too... I'm still fairly new to the program too, excuses, excuses... But thanks man, gonna do that now!

>>2871494
Some times yes, but since there's more options in PS, I often end up there.

>>2871513
Yeah, SAI is just so lightening fast even on old PC's. But the inking in CSP just feels a heck of a lot better, so worth it just for that, even.

>>2873995
The digital one

>>2874058
