I can't find the oil painting filter. PS CC. Indications on tutorials and elsewhere are that it should be a choice under "Filters".
It is not there, but I know I used it several months ago! Anybody know what would change?
My only choices in drop down are: Convert for Smart Filter, Camera Raw Filter, Blur, Noise, Pixelate, Render, Sharpen, Stylize, Other, Browse for Filters Online.
Good news e'ryone. It's back as of December 2015. Use the Oil Paint filter in Photoshop

Man, I could kiss you square on the lips for that. I've been struggling on a new computer to do my homework which requires CC and I couldn't find it anywhere on the Adobe site. Many thanks

Pixel bender accelerator is available as a plugin now for all versions of photoshop and uses gpu acceleration. The only problem is that the pbk and code that it uses is not open source. Trying to come up with a solution that is similar but it's painstaking. Anyone that knows anything about tensors and anisotropic filters I could use help on how to program this thing, cause I haven't done any serious stuff in years, and this math and converting the math to actual pixel bender is giving me a major headache for weeks now.

There's a large discussion on the community site. From speaking to one of the senior programming engineers, that also banned me from the chat for asking for specifics of the history and programming of the filter, and also accusing adobe of possibly being nefarious in the implementation of the filter, it appears that this is a technology issue and an implementation issue that will be pretty difficult to overcome and going to need a serious effort to get it included past the 2014 release. I'm still working on mine using pixel bender accelerator. Made a lot of headway, but the math and the size of the kernel is still a huge issue for me.

Thanks for the "sad" news...
I still have PS CS6 on my system also, so I do have access. I am worried that bouncing between PS CS6 and PS CC will corrupt something and then I will really have a problem.
I am not a techie, but just a user. Can a "mere mortal" speak to someone at Adobe about this problem?
