Krita 2.9 ships

Post by Hirazi Blue » 26 Feb 2015, 11:22

Krita 2.9, the latest release of the open-source digital painting package, is shipping. The development team calls version 2.9 Krita’s “biggest release until now”, adding dozens of new key features
(Quoted from here)

New features
Too many new stuff for me to even attempt to highlight, although CGChannel makes a valiant effort.

Downloads

Oh, and did I mention, it's "open source"? :D
Stay safe, sane & healthy!

Sadly the windows Version still wont run smooth on my system.

And Google brings up alot of post about Slow Brushes and laggy paint strokes. Only on the Windows version with Nvidia Cards thou, as far as I know .

Linux and OSX seems to run fine for the ppl.

Fortunatly XSI was the only one that was keeping me on windows, we spoked alot of the old code-base of maya and nearly unchangeable roots, but what about windows ! ;-)

Windows version of Krita is very slow, i prefer Mischief for drawing. Fast, small, infinite canvas and vector painting is awesome.

Curious. I always found it quite zippy. It does run on OpenGl, so you'd need a good graphics card to make the most of it.

Compared to Gimp or Inkscape, I think they blow them out of the water considering them being opensource and free.
