I have the latest build 2.8.93.0 and I tested to open a 16 bit Photoshop file, PSD, saved from Photoshop CC (latest build). The PSD file opened empty, no picture to see, just an empty transparent layer. I tested to open a 16 bit Tiff, saved from the sam Photoshop. It opened correct.

The Krita build before this one crashed when I tried to open a 16-bit PSD. A 16-bit Tiff opened correctly in that build.

There is a bug...

My system is 64 bit Win 8.1

Could you report the bug to bugs.kde.org and either attach the psd, or if it cannot be made public, send it to boud@valdyas.org? Thanks!

The latest build (krita_x64_2.8.93.1.zip ) does not have these problem. Thanks!

If was a pretty embarrassing mistake... I had accidentally commented out the line that added the background layer!
