A little pack ".ZIP" with all my style brushes and textures for Paint Tool Sai that I had when I first installed Paint Tool SAI in my computer. I hope this will help some of you :)

I WILL NOT ANSWER ANYMORE AT YOUR QUESTIONS REGARDING THESE BRUSHES AND ITS INSTALATION.
The video tutorial (link below) and faqs are here to help you and I can not do more than that to guide you.


-------------- Other Ressources -------------
- Default Brushes Settings: [link]

----------------- Instruction -----------------
1 - Download the .ZIP I propose in this tutorial at the top right of this page.
2 - Unzip the .Zip file.
3 - Read the "READ ME TO INSTALL.txt" file and the "USEFUL INFO.png" picture to guide you.

» WATCH THE VIDEO TUTORIAL TO HELP YOU «

REMEMBER TO SAVE YOUR FILES BEFORE STARTING ANY CHANGE.
I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ERRORS AFTER INSTALLATION.


-------------------- F.A.Q. --------------------

1 - I had a problem with the brushes! Where I supposed to put them all cause, where I put them aren´t appearing at all?
No new texture or brushes showed up?

In the folder in your hard drive where all the Paint Tool SAI files are kept there are folders called “elemap”, “blotmap”, etc. The same folder names are in the pack. Just drag the files, one to one, if it need, from the corresponding folder of the pack to the one in your hard drive folder.
On windows, it may be possible that you need to be the administrator of your computer.

2 - What do you mean by corresponding folders? I tried copying and pasting but it didn't work!
In SAI program folders, you should have “botmap” “papertext” folders, just copy and past in the correct folder.
If you just copy and past files without updating .CONF files, then don’t forgot to copy its name into “brushtext.CONF” or “brushform.CONF” in the SAI program folder ^^ (open those files with Notepad).
After that, please, use “start-sai.EXE” to launch SAI.

3 - On Mac, I try to drag files into the already existing folders. However, when I try that, it won’t copy over. Why?
For Mac, I do not know much, because although I have a Mac, I have not installed SAI on it.
If SAI is just a file with several folders (like on windows), may I ask you to check that the permissions (cmd + i) of your file and subfolders are in "read and write" mode for all users.

4 - I have SAI for mac but I don’t have any type of folder, just the “.APP”. Is there a way to fix that or...?
On mac, when you are in the application folder, you have to click on the icon of your application, then on "Display Package Contents". It allows you to view the contents of your application.
After I do not know if you will have the same folders than windows version but I still hope for you :)

5 - Your file gave my laptop a virus and made it shut down? Could you check it please?
On two different laptops, I checked, analysed and unzip the file, and yet, no virus was detected. So check that you have antivirus software on you laptop! It may be something unrelated to my file.

6 - I don't see my Installation Folder. Help, please? Where am I supposed to be able to find it?
Your installation folder must be where you have unzipped the SAI Installation or in your hard drive. I can just advice you to do a search on your hard drive to find it.

7 - How do u unzip a .ZIP file?
Normally, it depend of your OS but sometimes you will need to install an unzip software like “7-zip” or “WinRAR”. It will unzip your file in the same folder as your .RAR or .ZIP.
You have plenty of free software for that. Mine on windows is “iZarc”. Totally free!

8 - Nothing happens when I click that pic!
All you do is click the download button at the top right of this page and you extract the files. For more explanation, read the description.

9 - Why this pack adds nothing new to me?
This pack contains my brushes and textures by default, so if you have a good starting SAI, this package will not help you.

10 - Why can't I make modifications for textures or brushes? (by =christelaln)
This is mostly for information purpose, those who have free edition of SAI are unable to make modifications for brushes and/or textures.

11 - I'm missing (simple circle). Where can i download that?
You can't donwload (simple circle) because it'is the default brush in SAI, so you can't missing it in your SAI instalation.

12 - How can I add the textures only and not the default brushes please ?
To add brushes textures, you have four thing to do:
1- close SAI.
2- add your "nameTexture.bmp" file in the "brushtex" folder.
3- modify the file "brushtex.conf" and add a new line : 1,brushtexnameTexture.bmp. Save the file.
4- restart SAI.

Hi, I'm sorry to disturb you but it seems I've got an issue and I didn't find any answer on the web..
the default brushes in the elemap folder only show in sai when I remove files on the blopmap folder :/ is there a limitation in the number of the files we can add?
thank you by advance! :)

It's weird because you can't missing (simple circle) in your SAI instalation. (simple circle) is the default brush in SAI, so you can't donwload it. sorry :'(
