Hi all!

I wanted to use the ML Bevel Reflect script along with the Bevel Reflect Logo plugin for Gimp 2.10 on a Mac.

But when I try to use it, I get this message popup: "This Script Requires: ML Bevel Reflect 2 Plug-in"


I downloaded the ML Bevel Reflect script from gimpscripts (can't post the URL on here) and I put it in ~/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/scripts
And installed the Bevel Reflect Logo plugin from gimpscripts as well and I put it in ~/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins.
And restarted Gimp, but I keep getting the error messages.

Did I miss something? Or is this version maybe not compatible with Gimp 2.10 for Mac? And if so, is there maybe an alternative?

Thanks in advance for the help!

There are two versions MLBevelReflect you want version 2.
The old gimpscripts is on the wayback machine. I got V2 from here:
https://web.archive.org/web/20171124195 ... l-reflect/
Or I don't know if it's on Mahvin's new gimp scripts site:
https://www.gimpscripts.net/

On Linux I put MLBevelReflectV2 in the plug-ins directory and bevel-reflect-logo.scm in the scripts directory.

Thanks for the quick reply!
I used the wayback-machine-link and downloaded ML Bevel Reflect (MAC-OSX).
I replaced the file in ~/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins, restarted Gimp
I tried it again but still got the exact same message.
It is like MLBevelReflect isn't loaded at all. I checked the permissions on the MLBevelReflect file and they are okay.

Is placing the MLBevelReflect file in the plug-ins folder and restarting Gimp not enough maybe?

PS:
I checked in Gimp -> Preferences -> Folders -> Plug-ins to see if the path to the plug-ins folder is correct and it is:
/Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins

Have you looked in menu Filters -> Map to see ML Bevel Reflect 2.0 is there.

Make sure the permissions include execute.

You could download the c source code from that same link and compile (on linux I used the makefile).

I checked the permissions and they include executable, but still no luck.

And as you suggested I tried to compile the c source code, but it requires libgimp (fatal error: 'libgimp/gimp.h' file not found). Not sure how to install that on a Mac.

But it seems like I have a more general problem with Gimp not recognizing the plugins in the plug-ins folder?
Maybe I should switch to a PC :p

Take a look at this tread viewtopic.php?f=9&t=19530&start=0

I had the same exact problem on my mac and have it working now.
