Increase size by one pixel and reset it back to mark the preset as dirty
Load the preset thumbnail into the scratchpad
Press Overwrite Preset to overwrite it
Export overwritten presets into a new bundle
Open the bundle with 7zip (or any archiver) to verify that .kpp files are small (i.e. ~100KiB each, not 10-20MiB as in the original bundle)
Remove the old bundle from the resources folder, remove the sqlite database, import new bundle.
Reopen Krita and import the new bundle
Check:
how quickly the bundle is imported
how quickly the brush is activated
is painting with these brushes quicker?
WARNING
The bundles created with this package will not be supported by Krita (even though they can be open by normal Krita), so please don’t publish them officially
UPD: @Mythmaker, btw, you can also test your memory issue with this package
Ok, gave it a try: (not that precise on the stopwatch)
Import regular bundle ca 17s - 210mb
Import stripped bundle ca 7s - 100mb
5-6s for first preset in bundle, then pretty much instant for the others. I didn’t see much, if any, difference between the stripped and regular bundle.
No, not that I could notice. Still some hiccups.
Same bundles in nightly krita-5.3.0-prealpha-f125658e:
Import regular bundle ca 1min15s - 210mb
Selecting one of the bundled brushes first time ca 50s
Import stripped bundle ca 38s - 100mb
Selecting one of the bundled brushes first time ca 8s
Hi. My test in windows 10. with Krita 5.2.2
bundle V4 4 Sec.
bundle V6 performance 6 Sec
bundle V7 7Sec
Knife Photo-H is 2 seconds for load the first time and 1 second to make the first stroke. Then everything is ok .
I haven´t touched variables or paths. I have deleted Sqlite and Krita resource version file.
Loading times have been reduced from my latest comment.The improvement is noticeable. Great job.
I don´t know if this is related with anything but i have this weird behavior creating layers. I have updated drivers Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 ti and restart my sistem.
I duplicated a group of empty layers and I have a 5 seconds delay with a disturbing point that i didn´t see before. Is this reported, can anybody confirm?
Also about The insta preview mode, I have discovered that doesn´t work in nearest neighbour. But I have tested also trilinear and High Quality and there is not too much improvement at least here on my I7 with windows 10. The Stroke stars normal almost in realtime and after a distance suddenly goes to high speed. No idea why. I hope my Feedback helps
Also about The insta preview mode, I have discovered that doesn´t work in nearest neighbour
Yes, instant preview doesn’t work with nearest neighbour filtering mode. That is by design (read, “how IP actually works”). The speed difference between NN and HQ filtering mode should be negligible for all GPUs manufactured after 2009
It is no problem to write your posts in your own language here, but please always add an English translation of your posts to it. Thank you!
For instance, you can use the free translation services of DeepL.com, or Google Translate, or Bing Translator, as well as Baidu (whereas the translations of Baidu from Chinese to English are not very good. I don’t know if English to Chinese works better.), also Yandex Translate is a solid translation service, but currently the best of them is DeepL.com.
@sddo: Since @emilm has not yet found the time to answer you, I will tell you how I handle it and what I have observed.
First the handling. You can activate and deactivate bundles in Krita via the resource management, namely via ‘‘Settings’’ >> ‘‘Manage Resource Libraries…’’ in the dialog that opens, select the bundles you want to activate/deactivate individually and use the corresponding button below to select or deselect the bundle for display in Krita. This makes it a little easier to select the brushes in Krita. And I think Krita also starts faster with deactivated bundles (that may be my imagination), but it definitely speeds up the handling of these bundles, that’s the Krita version you find described a few posts above, the links there are just invalid now, so here’s the link to the Windows version of the build in my cloud:
It is a portable version of Krita, which means you have to unpack the folder contained in the archive to a location of your choice, for example your desktop or the download directory, and can then start Krita via the link krita.lnk contained in the folder.
Now for the bundles. I think @emilm wrote here in the topic that a certain version should replace previous version(s), but I could be wrong. What is certain is that when you unpack the bundles, each bundle contains different brushes and brush tips. A single brush tip is only used once in two bundles. That’s why I still have all the bundles installed.
首先是处理方法。您可以通过资源管理在 Krita 中激活和停用捆绑包，即通过’‘设置’‘>>’‘管理资源库…’'，在打开的对话框中，单独选择您要激活/停用的捆绑包，然后使用下面的相应按钮选择或取消选择捆绑包，以便在 Krita 中显示。这样，在 Krita 中选择笔刷就容易多了。我认为 Krita 在启动停用的画笔包时也会更快（这可能是我的想象），但它肯定会加快处理这些画笔包的速度，这就是上面几篇文章中描述的 Krita 版本，只是那里的链接现在失效了，所以这里是我的云中构建的 Windows 版本的链接：
Google translation is as follows:
Thanks for your reply, I will try krita5.3, I am still using 5.2.0.
Because the differences between each brush in this art brush bundle are very abstract, and the krita brush manager only displays thumbnails, so you will soon forget the characteristics of each brush. I think if the author plans to replace the previous brushes with new brushes, I would rather use the smaller set planned by the author.
Wow, what a great job, I like the icons. Regarding the count of tips on the brushes, the truth is that I barely notice the defect and also when painting, relatively short brush strokes are probably applied on top of each other, I don’t think it is a big problem if it helps to improve performance. For the name I would add the word “real” impasto brushes.
I don’t think they look/feel real enough to be called real. - No cast shadows outside of brush tip, obvious repetition, lightness map doesn’t interact/blend/smear with itself.
This looks amazing! I love the test brushes already, and now with nice icons as well! Are these available already? I have not found the link to this version.
