Affinity Photo crashes on launch when opening large TGA file


Recommended Posts

Greetings,

I'm a user of the whole affinity suite and I haven't come across any bug until now. I'm trying to open a TGA file that has a resolution of 9600 x 11035 px (72 DPI, 11 MB), but no matter which method I use to open it, A. Photo closes immediately. It seems to be related to the format, as in PNG it opens fine without any issues. But I really need to have them in TGA as that is the format I use to save my renders from Blender, to avoid gradient banding issues. Any assistance would be really appreciated.

Thank you

Hey Aotuhm, welcome to the Affinity Forums

Can you upload the TGA to this private Dropbox folder so I can take a look? I imagine the crash is coming from the alpha channel but I'd like to see it to confirm.

The workaround is to remove the Alpha channel and resave but the bug has not been fixed yet I'm afraid
