Thank you for sharing the quote about ABR binary format.

I also looked at trying to find an online converter but the ones I found just jammed up and didn’t do anything. And, I’m also on a Mac so wasn’t sure what to do there. Hi Sooz, Thanks for responding and I’m actually not joking… I did start reading from the top but what I was asking was about the converters because I’m hesitant to download programs without asking if others have had problems with them (surprise malicious problems). I remember spending like days matching brush texture, flow and feel and its not even 1 to 1, just works close enough for me. It really is time consuming just trying to match the feel. I watch some artist use brushes and offer brush sets but i cant use them. Thats like trying to deduce a language from old ruins but that language had change over time and no one is teaching you how it works now and they cant understand you. the license are incompatible, it probably would require reverse engineering - then that would probably not work on the later version because the head company might have change how their propriety format work or that there are settings that are not 1 to 1. I still think its unfair to expect krita an opensource program to be able to fully get a brush from closed source program with accuracy and be able to translate that to a working brush. But it took me like half a day for 2 brushes. I’m pretty happy with the result and as I said, I made them a bit better in Krita. So far I’ve transferred 2 brushes from a PS pack that I like. Simply because I don’t have that much free time to play with numbers. The thing is that every time I try to fiddle with settings there is only one thing in my mind “I would pay for someone to transfer these for me”. Thus my only option to use those are to spend time, fiddle with settings and transfer them.Īgain if I was younger or didn’t had much to do, I wouldn’t mind. There are some cool PS brushes that I personally can’t find a replacement among Krita or Krita user shared base brushes. Krita might have 4000 brushes but most of them are pretty general. And to be honest even make it more cooler with other Krita brush settings.īut the appeal is that someone, somewhere made a good Photoshop brush or brush set and people want to use it.

It takes some time to tweak a brush to match a photoshop looking brush. Yes the dabs are the same but the settings are the magic part.
