Download developer version

Software RawTherapee
1

Hi could someone direct me to a thread (if available) as to the steps in setting up a developers version of Raw Therapee on my PC (Windows 10)?
I know how to get to the site with the automated builds of RawTherapee but not sure what to do from there?
Thanks

Just download from there

As others have said, the easy way is to download the nightly build (although it is currently frozen in time) or you can build it

  • As the windows automatic build stopped working due to cmake 3.20.0, as a backup, you can download W10 builds optimized for some architectures from here RTW64NightlyBuilds/ – Keybase.pub
    Unzip where you want and run rawtherapee.exe. for ease use a shortcut
    config folder located at c:/users//appdata/local/RawTherapee5-dev

  • You can build yourself. It is not complicated but be aware that cmake 3.20.0 is bugging now. If you want some help don’t hesitate, mainly to go back to a previous cmake version.

@gaaned92,

Should the skylake or icelake build be used with a coffee lake cpu? Also, what does Znver2 mean?

Thank you!

according to wikipedia
Skylake CPUs share their microarchitecture with Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake, Cannon Lake, Whiskey Lake, and Comet Lake CPUs.

so choose skylake

Nothing is more complicated than Intel processors roadmap. With all those stupid names, every one can confound micro architecture and implementation generation. skylake identifies a micro architecture but also an implementation.

The list of GCC X86 compilation options is given here x86 Options (Using the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC))

Is this still the correct place to download a recent development version on Linux?

You can see the date of compilation in the filename. Since it says 2021, the answer to your question is no.

Recent work by @Lawrence37 made a nightly AppImage possible: https://github.com/Beep6581/RawTherapee/releases/tag/nightly-github-actions
You might want to try that.

Thanks. I just followed Rawpedia advice to reach the above link, so maybe it needs be updated.
