Hey guys, I’ve seen all the threads about my question but all of the answers don’t seem to work for me.
I recently purchased NLP and I got the missing profile (nlp v2.3) error. I have scoured the forum and found a link Nate provided with camera profiles. I have the gfx 100s ii - I downloaded the gfx 100 ii profile as the sensor is basically the same. I have deleted and reinstalled lightroom and the app but I still get the same error.
When I do a convert it seems to work, but as soon as I click on the missing profile, the picture changes and used an adobe one. I can select the camera match profile but this results in a different image to the first one shown where it says missing profile. I hope this makes sense and someone is able to help.
A bit of an update, Still not heard from @nate unfortunately. But I downloaded a sample negative which was a dng/vuescan and the profile was there. It seems to just be the ones for my camera gfx100s ii which doesn’t work. I downloaded the gfx 100ii but that does not look like its working.
This profile does not work with files written by a GFX 100s II. NLP looks for metadata which is then used to select the profile. There is no manual override for this, which means that we can just ask Nate to provide the missing profile. Sometimes, Nate delivers promptly, sometimes, he can take some time.
Just download the profile, then go to “file > import develop presets and profiles” in LrC and add the file there.
Important note: Adding the profile may impact the appearance of negatives you converted previously (while the profiles were missing). This is because once the profiles are available, Lightroom will then correct apply the profile, but because the profile wasn’t there during the analysis, there will now be a mismatch between the analysis and the profiled image.
To fix this, you have two options:
Re-convert the image. You can do this by opening the image in Negative Lab Pro, going to the “Convert” tab and selecting “Un-convert.” You can then convert and it will then be properly profiled.
If you don’t want to reconvert previously converted images, you can make them appear as they did before by manually setting the profile to “Adobe Standard” (which is the profile it was likely using while the correct profile was missing).
