handy application that works like zbrush lazy mouse in any program

twistedpolygon

Hello I would like to share this nifty tool I just found that works in just about any drawing or graphics program to smooth your lines as the lazy mouse option in zbrush

This has been posted here before but I think this program deserves it's own thread in the general section as it's really useful. It's been here with Kamih, the creator, posting comments as well;

~ Yeah it does dude

There's two links, just look harder. I use it regularly on CS5

Can't get it to work... .I know I must be doing something wrong, but I can't figure it out.

Anybody got it working on Windows 7, and CS5?

EDIT: Got it working, briefly, but with no guideline or circle, despite what the settings say. And now, the command prompt just opens every few seconds, and closes instantly.. Hm.

twistedpolygon

it should work fine, try running as admin

Joopson

I'd tried that, and it didn't make any difference. Still has trouble grabbing the window, and still doesn't draw the circle or the line.

Edit: Same issue at school- and they have the same operating system and version of Photoshop, but different hardware and such. Running as Admin changes nothing... It works, but the line and circle just don't show, which is kind of frustrating.

+1 Here, it doesn't work on Win 7 x64, CS5 x64.

There is a new apps.ini file on the site now;
http://people.happycoders.org/kamih/wordpress/go.php?http://people.happycoders.org/kamih/lazyNezumi/apps.ini
(Not sure when it was uploaded)

In order to get it to work for CS5.1 you can add these lines to the apps.ini file(thanks to Matt Ostgard);

AppName=CS5.1\Photoshop.exe
WindowClassName=OWL.Document|PSViewC
HookGetCursorPos=TRUE
HookPeekMessageW=TRUE

AppName=CS5.1 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe
WindowClassName=OWL.Document|PSViewC
HookGetCursorPos=TRUE
HookPeekMessageW=TRUE

I'm running it in photoshop cs5.1 on a 64 bit windows 7 machine and it works fine.

Dandy! Will try soon, thanks.

Oh I thought it was just my PC.

You can use a pen tool still in CS5 for comic like refine line.

Nice.

I wonder how it works in a mouse driven shmup

keelhauler

Got it working with the help from Goraaz, and that is when I use my mouse.
But when i try it with my Intuos4, it displaces the brush stroke from cursor and gives it some weird noise.

Any Intuos4 users getting it to work on 64bit win7 and 64bit photoshop cs5?
