Is there anything in the future roadmap to port to Linux?

I should clarify. While you no longer need to download any extra dependencies, the install work around from my guide above still applies. When you get the error during installation, kill the the install process using “force stop all processes” in the bottle menu (top right). The models should downl…

I also just got it to work with Photo AI 3.0.3 in the flatpak version of bottles. Denoising, color balance and exposure correction seem to work fine (with very limited testing on my end), but selecting the upscaling option produces a blurry preview image, which unfortunately also carries over into t…

I can confirm. On AMD GPUs the output is still blurry. Only NVIDIA is working at the moment due to the latest DXVK version. Furthermore in my experience all 3.0+ versions are unstable and should be avoided. Todays release flat out broke functionality. The last reasonably stable version is 2.4.2.

Please create a native Linux installer. Or at least make it so that we can use it with wine/lutris/steam/bottles or the like. I would happily prolong my license, but as I got rid of all the Adobe crap, i will not switch back to windows just because of Topaz. Pleasepleaseplease, make it work under …

Tom, I agree completely, though I ended up switching to Mac due to unavailability of professional-quality photo software on Linux. Though Linux is a relatively small segment of the computing world, it is growing and will continue to grow as it improves and Windows continues to get worse. The Linu…

Disappointingly I had 3.0.3 working in a bottle, and, unwisely, attempted to enable GPU support to increase performance. It broke, and I can’t get it to even open the app. Extremely frustrating. Going to continue to attempt to get it working.

Recent versions of TPAI have worked fine (using wine-10.0-rc3 and slightly older versions). Up until now. Version 3.3.2 worked, but unfortunately the release of version 3.4.1 breaks this positive trend and it now fails with error messages regarding Internet connectivity: connectivity:connection_p…

Just tried to install PhotoAI 3.3.1 in a bottle following the instructions above (running Mint 22). But after force-stopping the first install and then running the repair, clicking on the resulting bottle does nothing. Wondering, if I’d be better of installing PhotoAI in a Win10 VM (which I’ll have…

I think that might have to be with GPU passthrough though if you want to get any kind of performance that won’t have you waiting a year to get processed out of it. With GPU passthrough you get bare metal performance out of your vm experience. With a VM not even close.

That’s what I had in mind. But I started looking into it a bit further and it gets complicated. For GPU pass-through the guest OS has to claim exclusive use of the GPU, so there needs to be another GPU for the host OS. Since I have a small form factor PC, I have only one PCI slot available (which is…

Yes, overriding wininet and urlmon changes the error messages. But, as you said, it still won’t run.
