So, I use a lot of brushes in photoshop with "hard mix" and "height" textures mode. Multiply and Substract options is not enough, I can't reproduce feeling of natural hard texturing brushes. Is it possible to implement those in "Krita"?

What do you use them for? Is that effect not achievable with Krita's advanced texture options like brightness, contrast and cutoff, which are afaik not present in Photoshop?

I can't achieve the feelings of brushes I use. Below the link to the image with brush strokes with Multiply, Substract, Hard-Mix and Height modes. First two in Krita, other in Photoshop. First row is stroke from left to right, and second is from left to right and backward. Same pattern and the same brush form. Scale of brush is also the same.

And you are wrong about photoshop settings, it has brightness, contrast. Instead of cutoff it use Depth and Minimum Depth, but I agree that Krita's cutoff is more advanced. Here the screenshot:

Substract mode using with Strength parameter is closer to Height, but don't give the same feeling. Texture in HardMix and Height are more stronger, crisper but mixing get solid ununiform look with feeling of paint material and canvas.
