P: Liquify lightens result on 16 bit/channel images

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

I am having issues with the new upgrade to Photoshop CC 2015 on Mac El Captain. The only thing I did was upgrade from a working CC 2015 to the new version. Using the liquify tool give the following look. There is a box around the area liquified that is lighter than the other areas. When I turn of Use Acceleration in Graphics Processor, it is better but .... I didn't have to do this in the prior version i.e.. Yesterday.

New Update: The Squiggly waist is the liquified:

How are you supposed to start Liquify with ALT pressed? As soon as I press ALT, the menu closes and I can't select Liquify! I usually do CTRL-SHIFT-X to start Liquify, but CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-X does nothing.

Hold Alt before you start the clicking sequence.

Twelve days and no fix...........if you simply substitute Liquify.8bf in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2015\Required\Plug-Ins\Filters with previous version one, everything works well (other bugs apart....).
Why Adobe doesn't follow this way?

[BoomeArt]

Can someone check if it works on Macs?
I mean in latest Photoshop version replace the file Liquify.plugin located in
Applications\Adobe Photoshop CC 2015\Adobe Photoshop CC 2015.app (right button click on application and chose Show Package Contents)\Contents\Required\Plug-Ins\Filters

In the LR , if the choice ProPhoto RGB & 16 bit with the choice PScc2015 to enter edit pictures directly (using adobe RGB), use the Liquify filter , the use of color unknown Back LR occur . Request resolved.

Its a complete differnt problem! Nothing is resolved!!! Problem stil exist!

[romarubenis]

WTF Adobe?

[romarubenis]

The same problem!

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

be careful editing in Adobe Pro Photo versus sRGB. You will be in for some surprises when you print.

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

Same thing is happening to me.

[superkevkt]

This seems like a good temporary fix, but where did you find the previous version of the Liquify plugin? Did you have to install a previous version of Photoshop just to get that one file?

Another unhappy working professional here! This really creates a setback, lost time and money. Not acceptable Adobe! Get this fixed!

[trishmennell]

Same problem here! Overexposed square when I try to use liquify. Now to see if I can revert to old version. Argh!

[trishmennell]

This is driving me nuts!! How can they not test these things before releasing??!

[trishmennell]

Here here!

This is not only when using liquify filter. I have the same Problem after using some layers and adjustment layers in a 16-bit file and then try to select colors/lights with the menu in a selected area (that ́s the way I reproduce the error). All layers will have squares in different areas after that. Seems they changed something in managing GPU. Disable GPU and everything is solved. But there are disadvantages without GPU (user Interface, Display Bitmaps not in 100%, SPEED!).

Tried with INTEL HD 4600 onboard and nVidia GTX750

I think at this time this is the most important bug to be fixed.

As Adobe haven't yet found a fix for these bugs .. does anyone know of another software program that can 'liquify' 16bit while we wait.
I have work I need to complete!

Disabling "Use Graphics Processor" works for now. I'm at least able to liquefy even though things are slower.

[FeedbackCommunityMember]

You don't need to disable GPU accelearation entirely. You can access a non-accelerated version of liquify by holding the option/alt key and then opening the liquify filter.

-Liquify in 16 bits and accept.
-Undo the brightened liquify.
-Hold alt/option and open liquify again (alt/option disables gpu processing)
-Hit Load last used mesh, and accept.

Awesome! I'll try that out. Thanks
