Hi Holger,
thanks for the tip on cinepaint, formerly known as Film Gimp,
the brother of gimp but not available for Windows currently...
http://www.cinepaint.org/
They are about to release an update Dec. 15th, so maybe
this will include an XP/XP64 release.
Cheers and thanks for the heads-up
tim

Subject: Re: OT Photoshop like app in 64bit?
I know there is an open-source paint program.
It was developed for feature film work. Works in 16 bit and float.
Something like Cinepaint AFAIK.

Hi guys,
sorry for the OT but I figured I canÂt be the only one
with this problem here, working on 8K textures/plates
I run into pretty unnerving diskswaps with Photoshop
on a XP Pro32 machine with 3GB Ram available e.g. /3GB.
IÂve 8K square maps with several layers, roughly 600MB+
per Photoshopfile, thatÂs the magic limit where it starts hurting
even thought IÂve given it all RAM available via the Prefs.
Can anyone comment on the 64bit performance of Photoshop
on XP64 (with more RAM adressable, like 4GB+) or suggest
an affordable alternative (for 64bit). I didnÂt plan to move to
64bit at home unless everything and all apps are ready but
this is way too unbearably slooow to get something out of it.
Seems I never worked on such huge comps at home before...
Hmm, right. Must be the 8K. sh**t.
Cheers
