ANSWERED: Suite 1.8 and Photoshop CC 2015 compatibility?

Gheromo

Does it work? Or I will have to wait till 2.0 update?

Synaesthesia

It works, but you'll have a high probability of encountering issues. I would downgrade to CS6 until 2.0 is out, personally.

For me it works just as well as CS6, in other words sometimes having to deal with crashes every 3-4 minutes.

There are known compability issues with CC 2015 so I'd recommend using CS6 if possible. SUITE 2.0 has sorted out these issues though!

SaphireS

For me CC 2015 works quite well with 1.8, not many crashes. Or maybe I just figured out most of the causes for crashes and operations likely to crash and subconsciously avoid them.

Synaesthesia

It's less that the Suite crashes on CC 2015 and more that it has issues with patterns and other essential tools in the DDO workflow. Until 2.0 releases I would highly recommend staying with CS6 for now.

SaphireS

Oh wow, I guess I was just lucky up to this point then. Since a PS downgrade is not an option for me I hope for a 2.0 launch soon.

kilik

say downgrade photoshop look like joke and not Professional tool
disapointement
dynamask not working

Synaesthesia

I'm sorry you feel that way, kilik. As software (in this case, Photoshop) evolves but software that depends on it doesn't, there are things that are bound to stop functioning properly eventually. We're actively working on Suite 2.0, which has compatibility with every Photoshop version from CS3 to CC 2015. We'll let you awesome guys know as soon as it's ready!

kilik

sure it's just one trolling about can' t wait v2.0 and compatibility with zbrush too

why not open up the 2.0 beta then? I completely understand the need for a closed professional beta initially, but once you started giving out closed beta invites to random people on facebook, you kinda lost that understanding.

if its good enough for random people on facebook, why not give all owners the option when it seems the 2.0 beta is more stable than the 1.8 patch? i'd rather deal with bugs and new features than crashes and old ones. when people have dealt with so many bugs for so long waiting for 2.0, the facebook thing was a little insulting.

Synaesthesia

Fatrobotsneedlove: The reason we're keeping the closed beta to a select number of individuals is because the builds aren't stable enough for a public release. That is unfortunately all I can say on the matter, but please rest assured that the 2.0 release will be significantly worth your wait!

fatrobotsneedlove

I really can't see them being any less stable fhan 1.8, but fair enough.

I downgraded to CS6 and now I have two versions of Photoshop installed. How do I tell quixel to use CS6?

Edit: I didn't feel like waiting :poly142: So I just reinstalled. Did the trick. Thanks anyway!

A.marlowe: You can specify the explicit Photoshop connection in the future by clicking on the main Suite toolbar menu.
