Krita News

Hi again, all.

This week we've released Krita 5.1.3, a minor bugfix release.

Unfortunately I'm out of town and away from my normal workspace, and I'm having some difficultly pushing the latest version to Steam. As such, I want to let all of our Steam users know that the Steam release of 5.1.3 will be delayed until the beginning of next week, and will hopefully be uploaded on or around Monday, November 14th.

Sorry for the delay and have a good weekend.

Today we’re releasing Krita 5.1.1. This is strictly a bug fix release. Two serious problems are fixed in this release: a slowdown in start-up time experienced by some people, and a crash when copying a vector layer.

You can read the specific change notes here.

Hi again. Just wanted to inform you all about another small hotfix update.

We've released Krita 5.0.6, which fixes a couple of crashes.
Of course, you can read the details over in our patch notes.

Thanks as always for your support.

Hi again! Just wanted to let all of our supporters here on Steam that we've released a new update for Krita that solves a bunch of annoying bugs. Here's the full list of changes.

As always I'd like to thank you all for supporting the Krita project here on Steam. As a free, open source, and community-driven tool for artists all over the world, we rely on the generosity of community members who understand our goal and see the value in what we're building. Thanks a ton!

Hi everyone. I want to let you know that Steam support has helped us get to the bottom of the issue with content distribution on macOS that was leaving many users with nothing more than an "EmptySteamDepot" file.

The problem was, unfortunately, due to a Steamworks configuration mistake that I made in which the macOS depot was not properly attached to all of the various packages--this is also the reason why we weren't able to reproduce the issue on our end, because the developer testing package was not affected by the problem. Long story short, I've applied Valve's suggested correction and that should hopefully fix the problem for everybody, forever.

Again, I want to apologize to everybody who has been affected by this issue. Your support means a lot to the team, and I know how frustrating and annoying this has been. I'm sorry that I wasn't able to solve this faster, or better yet avoid it entirely, but I'm only human.

If you have experienced issues with running Krita on macOS, please validate your files (or reinstall) and try again, and let me know if the issue has been fixed on your end.

Sorry all.
Emmet
