Sonu2c Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I cannot load LUTS ON THE AFFINITY PHOTO , they all GREYED OUT . THEY WORKED THE first time and now they are just greyed out. I cannot load them anyways. I have attached a photo of greyed out LUTs . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM1 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Apparently a bug for some users. A workaround for now is to rename file type to .cub Which you can do on iPad using Documents (by Readdle). Copy lut to Documents and rename the navigate from affinity photo to documents and lut should now appear and load. Alternatively if you have Fresco or other adobe app loaded, try removing it/them 5 hours ago, Sonu2c said: I cannot load LUTS ON THE AFFINITY PHOTO , they all GREYED OUT . .

Sonu2c Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Thank you very much it worked , but the full version has over 6000 LUTs that’ll take me years to convert them all. Is it going to be fixed in next update ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I know is it has been logged as a bug. No telling what order bugs are fixed. Even more confusing, I don’t have this issue with lut loading though many do, so maybe you have another app that has claimed ownership of lut file type in iOS. Hence my comment re Fresco etc. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

Staff Gabe Posted September 1, 2020 Staff Share Posted September 1, 2020 Hi both, I managed to replicate it here without Fresco, so no point in trying to delete other apps. The issue is with our developers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Gabe Posted September 1, 2020 Staff Share Posted September 1, 2020 No idea, honestly. It seems to be very random. I've got the same iPad model as you (Pro 10.5) and I have the issue. The only difference is the internal storage (mine is a 64GB, and not a 512) but that should not make any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DM1 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 There is a known bug in last affecting some users (not all). A workaround as discussed earlier in this thread is to rename .cube to. .cub Seems silly but apparently works. Gabe 1 Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

azek99 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 If you use PC you can use a batch convert command from .cube to .cub (you need some DOS command skills to do this) https://www.c3scripts.com/tutorials/msdos/commands.html Open CMD on you PC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cmd.exe) Click Startbutton and type CMD and press enter, the command prompt opens. (a small black window) Go to the folder, using dos commands, where the .cube is located (I recommend you copy the .cube folder you use) When you are in the right folder type for /R %x in (*.cube) do ren "%x" *.cub (this will change the filename extension of all .cube files to .cub in that folder) For example C:\user\me\documents\luts>for /R %x in (*.cube) do ren "%x" *.cub Basic DOS type "d:", "e:" to change drive type "cd foldernamn" to open folder type "cd.." to go back to previous folder https://www.c3scripts.com/tutorials/msdos/commands.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azek99 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Any news or workarounds for .3dl luts? They are still grey Edit I tried to change the filename extension .3dl to .cub and it seems to work for /R %x in (*.3dl) do ren "%x" *.cub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justchelsea Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) As a pc user with an ipad you can also use the new PowerToys feature but you're limited to 20 at a time. Or you can follow @azek99 advice. To make it easier open the file explorer and go to the file with the .cube files you need to change. On the address bar (Not the search bar with the little magnifying glass) type CMD. When command prompt opens double check that the path you have matches the file address path. Enter the following command ren *.cube *.cub and press enter The files will all change the file extension, but not the file name.
