Hi Gimp users

Samj's GIMP 2.10 final released.

Thanks, Samj

Doron.

I can't read French, is there a mac version of sami's release?

Downloaded and installed (64bits).
Run first tests: no problems.
Big thanks, Sylvie et Michel !
Did you install it you too, Doron?

Hi Dinasset

Yes, I download and unzip the Samj's portable Version.
And Gimp is working without any problem.

What about GMIC installation now?

Hi gimp users

This is my windows layout in gimp 2.10 Portable.

Samj's portable Version is working without any problem.

Thanks, Samj

Had to pick one, so I picked samj's. Did share both links at DPR's site. Thanks samj for the compile. It works quite well. Haven't tried to install resynthesizer, user filter and a few other of my filters yet, but eventually do plan to. Just glad I can keep my old GIMP just in case I need a crutch. lol

Do have a question, though. I know that G'MIC can handle higher bit depth, but, does G'MIC translate the result to 8 bits or does it recognized the bit precision and passes the higher bit depth level result to GIMP accordingly? Just curious. I'll pose my question at Pixls' site too.

Downloaded the portable and will be having fun with it later. I'll keep 2.6 for the occasional painting in between bouts of Krita and Daz/Blender work but at least I can now keep up with G'MIC versions.

Hi to all.

If G'mic reduces the photo to 8 bit then who can I see it in gimp software?

Thanks
Doron

Portable working fine. Thank you very very much Samj for putting this together for us!

Hooo hooo hooo _ I'm in loooooooove!!!

David just answered my post at pixls; it does. Just tried what he said (in my case, used G'MIC's anisotrophic smoothing) and indeed it smoothed the histogram when I checked it using GIMP Levels. Very happy about that.

OK; decided to include my modification of samj's interface. I know; old school old fogy I am. lolol



edit: did have to reconstruct the gradient tool icon (not hard) since it was missing.

So far, I got Resynthesizer (the python version; 64-bit), userfilter, and shellout to work now. Still, a lot more work to be done. lol



edit:

saddened that PSPI won't work in GIMP 2.10. I suppose the old plugin is just too old for GIMP now. Shellout works, but still I would like a ps compatible plugin to work in GIMP. Just wish I knew coding. lol

At least there's a work-a-round.

Has anyone seen how to access n-point deformation using samj's build? Just curious.

samj (at pixls) suggested I try PSPI in the 32-bit portable version. It does work there. Pretty happy about that. Maybe the developers will allow 32-bit GIMP plugins to work in 64-bit version in future builds, but, my gut says that won't happen. Oh well.

Given the support for Samj's portable version of GIMP 2.10 I thought I would give it a go and have downloaded it to a USB.

However, whilst I can start it up and it recognises my brushes, patterns, gradients etc from my user/app data source, I am unable to get the many scripts/plug-ins I use to be available. I have tried copying them to the USB in locations I found in 'preferences', but they still do not show up.

Also GMIC ... how do I make it available and accessible?

G'MIC is part of samj's build, omg. Both gtk+ and qt versions show up for me so don't understand why they don't for you.

OK; Ben (at pixls) showed the way to enable n-point, but doing so, I had to find the direct GIMP executable and create a batch file for it. When doing so, there were many errors that would pop up, but eventually you get to the point where you can enable n-point. When you go back to launch GIMP via the regular portable executable (to get the plugins back), n-point is no longer there. Not sure what issues keep this feature from being enabled, but I bet samj's aware of the issue. There's a way, if I really need it, to get it (and pretty much only it and after a lot of pop up errors).
