Other why no perpetual license for android???

1 Upvotes

I know it's a small thing to be irritated about, but truly, monthly and annual subscription programs hurt my soul. I got the movink 14 thinking I could just either transfer one of my licenses over (I have both a Pro and an Ex license, both perpetual) or get a new one, but nope! android only has the subscription. I'm half-tempted to put one of those windows emulators on my tablet and seeing if I can make it work that way, because holy hell this is a big pet peeve. Either that or just use krita since that's on the google store now.

CSP Question Two questions

3 Upvotes

Hi, I'm considering buying ClipStudio, and I was wondering if after buying a perpetual license version I would have to change my laptoo, could I move my ClipStudio to that new laptop/device? Or would I need to buy it again?

And is it worth buing PRO version? I'm especially interested in animation and 'extract lines from images and 3d models' options. Thanks!

CSP Question Losing my mind with the isometric ruler

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

15 Upvotes

Iso ruler I'm using in the video is this -> ISOMETRIC RULER + Grid. But I have tried every other in the assets store and I'm still getting the same problems.

First, the lines I'm drawing aren't following the left and right axis correctly. They're slightly crooked if you look closely. And the second problem is that I can't draw vertical lines, at all.

What am I doing wrong?

CSP Question Export isn't working

1 Upvotes

I am using Clip Studio Paint EX version 1.13.2 for Windows. I am using a ROG Zephyrus G16 laptop

Hi, I've used Clip Studio Paint EX for a few years now, and I decided to do a quick little animation last night. I've done a few of these over the years, but this time, I ran into a problem. I couldn't export the animation. Animated GIF worked, but when I tried to export it as a movie, nothing popped up. Same with trying to export as an image sequence which I don't even want to do. Normally something is supposed to pop up, but nothing loads. It's not even a big of an animation. I tried another file that I know was able to export in the past, and it also couldn't export.

Does anyone have any advice?

I am trying to make a simple chain brush!

It is almost done, but when I draw a stroke with curve, the shape is very jagged and wonky.

I more-so want it to stay the same shape along the path. Any ideas on what’s wrong??

Other What's the best way to use Clip Studio on a laptop?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Hope you’re all doing great.

I’ve got a bit of a strange question, but with all the AI and mixed info out there, I’m not so sure anymore…

What’s the best way to use Clip Studio on a laptop? Should I keep it plugged in or run it on battery?

Since it’s pretty resource-heavy, I’m just trying to figure out the best setup to balance my laptop’s battery life while getting the most out of Clip.

Thank you so much, and have a lovely day.

CSP Question I might have purchased an incorrect plan (PC PRO VER 4.0)

2 Upvotes

I might have purchased an incorrect CSP upgrade plan. I am a holder of a CLIP STUDIO PAINT PRO ver 4.0 perpetual license (For Windows 11), but I wished to upgrade to CLIP STUDIO PAINT EX VER 5.0 to access the animation features. On the website, I purchased to plan titled 'Clip studio paint - Update Pass (Annual)' as I believed that it was the cheapest way to access CSP EX. However, when I went to activate my license, I received an error message: "No serial number could be found to connect to the Update Pass". My questions are:

- Can this license only be activated if I have a CSP EX perpetual license, but not a PRO license??

- If not, how do I actually activate this license?

- If I can't actually use this, is it possible for me to get a refund since I haven't actually activated it yet? It was purchased via paypall if anyone is wondering.

I have looked through everything on the CSP support portal and nothing there seems to match my issue. I have sent an inquiry to CSP, but I haven't received a response as of yet.

It's a bit strange because I made a custom folder and now I can't really remember what X material was in. Even worse, most of it is in Chinese.

I never knew how to access pages like that, do you know how?

Instead of having to click through hundreds of layers to find that one pesky dot you accidenly left to erase it, click it with the select layer tool and it'll instantly open up the layer the dot is in

In most cases while rendering, your eraser simply isnt needed. In order to erase something, switch to transparant color and use your current brush to erase. Saves so much time and minimizes having to click through the options! And to switch back, just click on your current color and you're done

Just a heads up, since it took me an hour and a half to troubleshoot this-

If your lines annoyingly turn into shapeable lines and move mid drawing, you can turn it off here:

Just hit file - > preferences - > tools - > scroll all the way to the bottom and turn it off.

I hope this helps someone.

CSP Question Specific Alignment problem

1 Upvotes

I have a Huion Kamvas 22 with its designated pen; my version of Clip Studio is 2.0.6

When I turned my pen pressure on, the pressure worked fine, but it got crazy misaligned. It's ONLY misaligned when on the Clip Studio canvas -- when navigating settings and using it anywhere else on my computer, the alignment is fine. I've tried resetting Clip Studio and re-aligning my tablet, but nothing worked. I've been looking online, and I haven't found an answer. I'm pretty sure it's a problem with Clip Studio itself, but I'm not quite sure what.

CSP vers 5.1.1 / iPad mini / Apple Pencil (3rd party)

What the title says - whenever I’m working on a piece, sometimes when the outside of my right palm touches the screen CSP will use the eyedropper tool wherever it activated continuously until I stop, manually change the color back, then start again

This hasn’t happened until recently. How can I disable this, and what is causing this to happen in the first place? I haven’t changed any settings related to the eyedropper

CSP Question How the hell do I get 3D files from Blender into Clip Studio

1 Upvotes

I make a lot of 3D models in Blender. I don't really need too fancy shaders or anything for most of them, just simple colors.

When I export from Blender and import into CSP, they NEVER have any colors or textures.

I've tried all different formats and can't figure out how I'm supposed to do this. Can't seem to find any simple tutorials on it either.

What format does CSP need to import that will actually maintain the materials in the objects? Or how am I supposed to export + import to get them to work correctly?

There's a brush on procreate that I really like. I manage to replicate the brush stroke , but how do I go around adding this to the brush shape list? From what I know is that I can only duplicate existing brushes and change the brush tip. What if I want this particular shape? Please help~
