Not working on Linux Manjaro installed Blender (community repository) #13

Closed ChameleonScales closed 7 years ago

ChameleonScales commented 7 years ago

I can't get filmic to work on my installed Blender on Linux Manjaro. It works on a Blender 2.78b tar.bz version downloaded from blender.org but not on a 2.78b version installed from the Arch community repository. Although all the filmic options are here, the colors don't change at all no matter what I choose. I don't get proper desaturation or anything else.

This appears to be a preexisting image file loaded from disk?

ChameleonScales commented 7 years ago

No it's just rendered and the viewport gives the same result in Render mode (I should've shown the viewport instead)

sobotka commented 7 years ago

Must be something local to your installation. Try a clean installation of Blender via download and set the environment variable.

It isn't the configuration as best as I can see there.

Arch, and it is working Try using OCIO environtment variable

Given no progress on this, and the likelihood that it is a local issue, closing for now.

I just tried on a different computer, in a freshly installed XFCE Manjaro (latest version) and now the filmic options don't even appear. I get empty dropdown menus. Maybe I went fast saying it's an Arch problem (I assumed if Manjaro is based on Arch, then it would be the same there), but I think it's a Manjaro problem, rather than just specific to my computer. Anyway now I use a Blender downloaded from blender.org rather than from the repository as you suggested and it works this way.

I run Manjaro and it works fine, but never use the AUR version or the supplied Manjaro version of Blender. Whoever is building them has no clue. Get Blender from blender.org and you should be fine.

In my case (frash install on Manjaro XFCE) I manually copied filmic files to it's destination (/usr/share/blender/2.78/datafiles/colormanagement) and it didn't seem to work. The error was: could not read /usr/share/blender/2.78/datafiles/colormanagement OCIO profile What I did was to run blender as root. sudo blender Worked...

You should never run Blender as root, best to install blender into your home dir. say: /home/$USER/bin/blender then add to PATH. copy filmic over and your done.
