Question

Brushes not supported | NOT live brushes

Hello, I am reaching out to see if anyone else is having a similar issue. I recently purchased a nice set of brushes that are .abr that work seamlessly for photoshop and illustrator. However, whenever I try to import them directly from my laptop or through the cloud, fresco says that all the brushes are unsupported. They are not live brushes, they are "Memento Shader Brushes" but I seem to be struggling to get them to work on fresco. 

I thought it may have been a size issue but I went ahead and uploaded a single brush from the pack and it still didn't upload. The internet I have works great as well so it's not that either. 

 

Thank you.

Hi Iram. 

 

About third-party Photoshop brush packs: Although they may work in Photoshop, not all third-party brush packs will work in Fresco.

I have the exact same issue with the same brush set. I have tried uploading them to Fresco straight from my iPad and also through photoshop 'libaries' and nothing seems to work. Not sure what it is about these brushes?

Hi TeenyTiny. 

 

As I mentioned to  Iram,  not all third-party Photoshop brush packs work in Fresco (this is particulary true for shading/smudge brush packs). 

 

Were you able  to use these  brushes in Photoshop?

Hi Sue,

 

Thanks for your reply. Yes I tested it and was able to use them in photoshop, but wasn't ideal because my artwork was in Fresco on the iPad and I don't have a wacom tablet. I also can't find a way to import Photoshop brushes onto the Photoshop iPad app - I'm guessing this is because it is just a very basic version of Photoshop.

 

Also you mentioned to Iram that the brushes were illustrator brushes - the company sells all different versions of the same brush set: Photoshop, Illustrator, Procreate, etc. Just not Fresco yet!
