Hey,
when rendering in IPR, colors look fine but when I batch render and open the .exr in Photoshop everything is washed out. I only have Photoshop at hand to do comps on rendered images.
I know that it has something to do with OCIO color settings that are now set as new defaults in Maya 2022 but I want to know how to treat it in Photoshop to have the same exact image to work with.
Saving the color corrected image from the IPR is not a real option, thats how I did it the last few renders but it wasn't satisfying ๐
*(This whole ACES colorspace stuff is great but the workflow is pretty "ยง!"$#%& So many times I tried to understand whats going on but it is too hard to understand as an artist with not much technical knowledge. Is there a tutorial for dummies that don't have a scientific background in information technology?)
Can you post the images?

Isn't the problem that Photoshop is all ICC profiles, not ACES?
(I'm not a Photoshop user, I haven't opened it in a decade at least)
I was looking at this blog post:
https://www.deniskrez.com/post/_aces
which was recommending an ACEScc -> sRGB ACECcc ICC Profile for Photoshop workflow
I will check out the links provided by You and Lee Griggs. Maybe even using old versions is a workaround for now ๐
I always watch Arvids videos and I watched the ACES ones a lot. It took me a while to get my head around and I have established a workflow with MtoA and Nuke to get images out in ACES but not with Adobe, which is essential in many studios that don't focus on feature film production.
Even as a senior artist I think that the whole topic is poorly covered for people who don't have much of a technical background. Its a pity, because ACES provides more creative control in comp but working with it always is a pain. I know which buttons to press in Nuke but wouldn't be able to explain what I am doing to my coworkers.
See if this helps
