Surface Pro Pen pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop CS6. Was anyone able to get their surface pro to use the pen pressure sensitivity? In my photoshop settings when i turn on Pen Pressure for brush settings i see a yellow exclamation mark next to each settings which has to do with pen pressure. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please let me know.

    Point us to the Asus EP121 driver file. Maybe there's a hack that can be done on it to get it to install...

    Exactly what I was thinking.

    Here's the driver I believe DowerChin was refering to:

    ftp://ftp.wacom-europe.com/pub/WINDOWS/isd701-8\_int.exe

    however some people seem to be still having a lack of pressure while others it fixes the problem, maybe they forgot to uninstall the old driver first?

    On the other software front, Sketchbook Pro 6 and Sketchbook Express work fine with the Surface Pro stylus.

    Though Sketchbook Pro must rely on WinTab for touch pan and zoom - because you can't do that like you can in ArtRage.

    I have been Googling about "Surface pro; zbrush review" since it was released, but found nothing. No wonder I got zero feedback. I am very thankful that you guys've addressed this issue and gotten MS's attention. 

    It is one of the biggest reasons that I am willing to buy this product, even though ALL of my Silicon Valley friends told me not to. One of my friends who is actually working for MS in Seattle suggested me to buy a ultrabook and a ipad mini instead with that kind of money. But hey, they forgot this thing has a pressure-sensitive pen that I can put in a good use when I am doing CG work, which they don't really need much when they are coding, so I don't blame them. But without the fully functional stylus, I ain't buying this, because there is no point anymore. I guess most of the artists in this thread would agree with me.

    Thanks again for bringing it up.

    Best.
