Description Here is the first tutorial in a set of Paint Tool SAI tutorials that I am making. I thought that a settings tutorial would be the best to post first, as I will refer to this tutorial in future tutorials.

I hope I explained everything well. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

WOW! Thank you so much for the daily deviation!!! It is quite an honor! Thank you!!!

Got it. But now it says "Can't run sai.exe (Create process failed with error 2)". Sorry for the bother by the way.

This most likely happened due to installing the new files over the old ones. Try uninstalling SAI. But before you do this, make sure you backup the license file for SAI (it's a small file with the word "sai" and a lot of numbers and ends with ".slc"). Just move it to a new folder just in case. You can also get a new one by going to the official SAI website (if you still have your software license number, certificate download password, and password character type). After you backup the license file and uninstall SAI, delete any remaining files (make sure you delete all SAI files and folders), then install SAI again. That should fix it.

Let me know if this worked.

I'm so sorry, I missed this comment before. Did you fix this problem or does it still say that the trial has ended?

I don't think I commented on this before, but I gotta say: this is the best tutorial for tool settings in Paint Tool SAI. I've seen quite a few of these types of tutorials, but this one explains everything in the cleanest and simplest manner possible with total accuracy.

Definitely the #1 guide to the tools, great job! And thanks!!

Great tutorial, but can I ask you something? I have a tablet which reacts to pressure, but for a reason in Paint Tool Sai, it doesn't. Do you know how I can fix it :/ ?

Pixelmata In reply to KeitouChan [2012-06-25 04:47:45 +0000 UTC]

Make sure that your tablet drivers are up to date. Try reinstalling them too just in case. Also, uninstall and reinstall SAI. Let me know if that worked.
