BaldwinB Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I am trying to upload some newly purchased Luts into my Affinity photo software but for the life of me I can not find the folder for the pre-existing luts with the program to add on to them. I've searched every folder relating to the program on my computer but there is nothing there that dictates the pre-existing luts so I can add more to them. I.e. presets. Let me know if I'm searching in all the wrong places or if affinity is just that unorganized with their files and felt like sending people on great journeys.

h_d Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 As I understand it, it doesn't matter where you put your LUT files, as Affinity Photo looks for them wherever you tell it you have kept them. (This is on a Mac, but I've no reason to suppose it works differently on a PC.) For example, you have a folder full of LUTs, somewhere (anywhere) on your computer. With an file open in the Photo persona, you add an LUT adjustment layer: You click Load LUT... Navigate to the folder where you're keeping your LUTs: Select the one you want to use... And it will be applied to the image, with its name in the LUT Adjustment panel, as above. You can save it as a preset by clicking Add Preset, and then re-use it from the selection of presets in the Adjustments pane, which I've dragged out and made a bit larger to display it clearly: : But as far as I can see, it doesn't matter where you keep the LUTs. The downside is that this means adding each LUT and creating presets one at a time. The upside (on a Mac at least) is that it doesn't seem to matter if you move the folder full of LUTs after you've created the presets. Hope this helps.

Totte Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Are there any way to do this more efficient? I've got like 50~ LUT's and this seems like a very slow way of importing them so that you can "quick chose" them :P Quote Photographer * Design Trainee * Linux nerd Instagram - Youtube - Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerald James Capao Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 And here I am.. got like 2000 LUTs and there is no way to preview them unless you open one by one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merauder Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 So, after manually adding ca. 100 LUT in 1.6 i just started 1.7 and all LUT are gone. I wont add 100 LUT manually AGAIN. This is seriously stupid and needs to be fixed. acuba777 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acuba777 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 so any information about folder, where we save our LUTs as presets? Same problem. Got some LUTs, but have to save them one by one separately, want backup them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acuba777 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Yes, looks like only solution is to save every LUT as separate preset and it will probably land somewhere inside adjustments configuration file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay27flow Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Please DO something! I'm in the same boat! I want use LUTs but no way i add them one by one!!! telemax 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparx Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 I'd like to add my voice to this feature request as well. LUTs are a quick and easy way for beginners to preview a preset set of adjustments / changes to the image. A better mechanism is needed to import or preview LUT effects on the layer without having to jump through so many hoops of having to save a LUT as an Affinity preset. telemax and albas 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 +1 please give the option to set a directory and have the app scan for LUTs on the given directories. Absolutely not practical to load LUTs one by one without even a preview albas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I recently bought the "Insta Blogger Presets" LUT package here: https://www.affinityphotopresets.com The LUT packets are great. There are only 10 LUTS +15 macros in one package, but for that these 10 are just perfect. And I did not have to install 100 bad LUTS... The packages are probably on sale right now. I will definitely take the chance and stock up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
