Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

I can't figure out why this is happening. These brushes looked and worked perfectly fine before on TVP 11 but are completely unusable now. All aliasing settings are the same as before, here is what is looks like, along with other parameters:

Can you post your brushes? I'll check it out.

the only visible difference between the custom brush tool panels in the 2 versions is that the v12 version (light grey here) has integrated active line smoothing.
and a 'revert'option.

does it make a difference if you uncheck Activate line smoothing?

The screenshot shows a size of 7% (and AAliasing is blank?!) and I'm experiencing same things with the new algorithm while scaling down, it can make this kind of result depending how is the design of the brush.

I tried out the TVPaint 12 demo and noticed this behaviour also (as well as general instability, jagged lines remaining and frequent crashes). All of the anti-aliasing of my previous brushes weren't behaving the same as in tvpaint 11, extremely pixelated and completely breaking any thinner lined brushes.

Sorry, have been caught up with work.

Bumping this to revisit the issue, updated to TVP12.1.0 as well. Does anyone on the dev team have any solutions? At the end of my rope here and it's affecting my professional work that now looks inconsistent when editing older drawings from before TVP12.

An example of how the line used to look, then vs now:

(make sure to click, the thumbnail contains jagged lines not present in the full quality version, which also has jagged lines but this is due to being zoomed in)

I've tried checking and unchecking all new, old, best smoothing, max to no anti-aliasing, the results are the same. I've even attempted to recreate it in TVP12 with the exact stamp, and the results remain pixelated. Frustrating.

Please let me know if you have issues or not! If you don't have any issues, would you mind posting your project and brush settings to see if I can replicate it?

Hello, I responded to your email.
The dev team is aware of this issue and are working on smoothing out the transition of brushes between v11 and v12.
This seems to be due to antialiasing settings being interpreted inconsistently by v12.

Thank you for looking into this! Appreciate the help from my email too, it's an immense relief.

I was able to fix the pixelation issue by checking the projection box in the custom brush settings.
