Store Contents Ultimate Versions.

Post by sheng-si »

Is there a list of the contents of each PSP Ultimate Version.
For instance
Version 2019 - Pic-to-painting
Version --- KPT-collection.
And where were the "extras" put on the pc, in which map.

My thoughts are: In want to keep for instance Pic-to-painting in later versions. Install it with 2019, otherwise I cannot install it. You get the warning that first you have to install PSP 2019.
But when you uninstall 2019 the program also remove the pic-to-painting. So I have to move that part from the map to a "save" map.

Pic-to-painting was built into PSP from at least PSP 2021 (and possibly 2020). You can find it in the Instant Effects palette> AI Powered

Think You must my post again. I got pic-to-painting with version 2019. It is not AI powered (then).
I installed version 2023, That version does not have pic-to-painting.
I uninstall 2019 and then losing also Pic-to-painting.
But when I know in which map it is installed with 2019, then I can copy it to another map and MAYBr connect it to version 2023.

There are more plugins/extraas coming with older Ultimate versions and no more available since (some) version 2021/2022 For instance PerfectlyClear

So I am very interested to find or make or -- seeing a list which extra was installed where.

@sheng-si - the original pic-to-painting plugin that came with 2019 did use AI. The plugin would call an electron program that ran a python ML program to generate the effects. As ConalO said 2020 moved those features from that convoluted setup to being built into PSP. Now it's one of the effects in the Instant Effects panel. If you want to keep using the plugin, fine; but you don't have to, as the exact same functionality exists inside PSP right now. It might even be a little faster. Also it has more painting modes to choose from than the plugin did.

At this point in time, the plugin is only useful for versions of PSP prior to 2020. Anything going forward, it's just best to use what's built into PSP for the same effect.

The Ultimate Bundle, which changes with every version of PSP, has on several occasions changed even with the same version of PSP. So I'm unsure if there is a full list of every ultimate bundle addition or where they were stored on the harddrive. Usually, plugins provided by Corel are installed in ProgramData or under the specific version's Plugins folder inside the main program folder. Third-party plugins will install wherever third-party plugins install. Scripts, templates, and other resources often go into the ProgramData folder. Backgrounds go into the Public Pictures folder in the shared Public folder on your hard drive.

I need to change language to English ( I am dutch user ) to find the Instant effects panel. In dutch: Kant en Klare Effecten als een Palette.
Did not expect it with that name there.
I choose Pic-to-painting in the first place as an example. There were more sometimes very interesting plugins or other free-useful programs in ultimate bundles. Another example Pefectly Clear. Just one I know by heart on the moment.
Think I have to install the old versions one by one I have to see if there is still something useful to keep :-) When in the welcome screen you choose Store Free I can find them.

And also blindly copy the files from Old versions in Documents & ProgramData (Corel_01 ---) to the maps of 2023.

This link doesn't have a full list but it shows some of the extras included with previous ultimate editions.

I like Perfectly Clear as well but can't get it to work in other than PSP2019.
They also offered the KPT Collection with PSPX8
