Affinity Photo 2.3 sudden exit


Recommended Posts

Two times I have experienced 2.3 suddenly quit without giving any warning. That has actually has cost me and hour work or so...

Everything is fine with my PC and this is the only application that has done this to me. I'm using a PC with Windows 11, Ryzen 5700G, RTX 2060 and 32GB RAM

Sorry, there was no crash report.

I dont think I can give a very good description of my workflow.... I was working on a jpg file exported from DxO PhotoLab. I was doing quite a bit with the photo. Duplicating the layer 3 times and masking two of the layers. On one of the layers, I also had two masks. Adding several effects like blur, high pass filter etc. etc.

Anyway, it's not a masterpiece, but I guess I can add the new version of the file here, a somewhat simpler version not quite finished...

I've had the same problem. Perhaps a Microsoft update messing with Photo?

Looks more to be an OpenCL problem in your case here, aka GPU driver and OpenCL libary related ...

Thus in your case first of all try to disable the OpenCL hardware acceleration ...

I want to report that yes, the crashes are consistent and repeatable, I go and cut an image save and then open a new one, press the auto levels or contrast and it just closes

I even did re-install windows, I was on windows 11, I try windows 10 y the same happen, I try an older nvidea driver and the lastest and nothing,  disable Open CL did nothing aswell. in both cases windows 10 and 11 were updated to the lasted patch of dicember.

I need it to do my work today and I barely made it possible, I can't believe how unstable affinity is, my pc is not even old

specs: i7 12700, 32gb of ram, RTX 3060 12GB, and SSD MVme PCe 4.0, I use older version of photoshop and never experience a crash, heck even Paint Tool Sai is rock solid even when the program is on development, what's going on??

I find a comment after already purchased the software... "they really drop the ball with 2.0"

I really wish could buy the 1.0 version, some people say is really solid.

I'm actually thinking of asking for a refound, is not even a mount since I purches the software, but 14 days is what they give you... so not much I can do... just wait for more updates.

I'm here to report that the .net repair tool did nothing, I did try to install .net dev and the .net offline installer and nothing.

windows 10 completely updated, a clean install as well

@Torstein

There's a way to use Affinity Photo more efficiently.
My .afphoto file (see attachment) is half the size of yours !
That's because I'm only using one layer to apply all the adjustments. First I made a selection (selection brush) of the parts that needed to be blurred. Then I did save that selection as a spare channel and renamed it "blur" (see the channels panel).
If you right click on the spare channel and choose "Load to pixel selection" you can reuse it at any time.
I also saved that selection in a file (see attachment).
Via menu: "Select > Invert Pixel Selection"  you can switch back an forward  to manipulate the opposite part of the image.
Now with the selection active add an adjustment layer and make changes. These changes will only be applied to that selection.
Hope this was helpful.

sadly, even if it is a .net framework issue, I try installing windows from scrach and nothing, windows 11 o windows 10, windows with no .net updates and nothing as well, I try to updated .net manually and nothing, at the end it looks like is a issue with affinity, because nothing works, nvidia drivers or Vredist and nothing, I don't think it is my hardware, the only thing that change recently was my cpu, I updated from i5 12400 to an i7 12700, games and other programs work fine, gimp or krita, heck even recently I try Photoshop CS2 and it did work.... so yeah I sail the high seas... I was desperate and I needed the software for my work, I'm considering photoshop essentials, because I don't like subscriptions, even though is limited it will do.

 

anyway the point is I tried a lot of things and nothing work, too bad is already paid so... I'll wait for future updates on the software.

Is hardware acceleration, aka OpenCL support already disabled under the Affinity preferences?
