The old script worked ok for me see: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Can-t ... 9#pid11429

Am sure the new version is even better

[trandoductin]

The old version worked for me too but I just ran it through GIMP20 constantize plugin just in case other GIMP 2.10 people have problem with constant names...
I notice in the past many scripts worked for my 2.10 doesn't work on other's 2.10's. Not sure why.

Thanks again for updating the script, Tin.

I must have been busy when this one came out since I don't recall seeing this thread. Cool stuff. May download the script later and play (but it is my weekend (full-time job) and my part-time job will occupy me most of next week unfortunately). Anyway, thanks for the info and script links Tran/Conbagui.

edit:

And from the looks of things, since GIMPScripts is no longer, it may be a bit difficult to hunt down all the required stuff to run the script. May try to do so later. Still, some cool results; I bet there's more than one way to skin a cat. Possibly run an alpha to logo and then using a bark texture with displacement and merge. May try to go that route since I'm a lazy bstard and it will be trying to find all the things needed to run Tran's script. We shall see.

The only thing you need is to have Layerfx.py installed and the Bark textures.
If you don't have them, here I uploaded a copy to use with 2.10 version. I hope this can help you Lyle

Thanks, Pocholo. I'll eventually check this one out.

Appreciate that too, Tran; just downloaded your Script-fu as well.

OK; finally installed everything and placed files where they belonged (lol). Here's my play. Thanks a heap again.

I WANT TO MAKE THE TREE BARK STRUCTURE BUT I ALWAYS GET THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

looks like you don't have layer effects installed.

[gimper66]

looks like you don't have layer effects installed.

layer effects that is what I still miss,can you sometimes deliver that to me, and also tell me where to install it because I'm not that handy in those things.

[trandoductin]

I think Pat625 included in the .zip (at bottom of post #1: https://gimplearn.net/viewtopic.php?p=4342#p4342)
Just put that in your GIMP's plug-ins/ folder.

the problem is that I don't have the LAYER EFFECTS

[racer-x]

Here's layer effects.py put it in your plug-ins folder....

I have one (which I have never used before)
I will try to see if I can put it here ...

impossible "The upload extension py is not allowed" (same with "zip")

Edit:how did you do racer-x?

[gimper66]

still the same,

if I click on effects then the effects such as drop shadow and layer to embos and inner shadow etc ... should appear?!!

[racer-x]

Then you did something wrong, because layer effects works perfectly here.

@level_0 Easiest way:

Get the zip that Pat625 prepared https://gimplearn.net/viewtopic.php?p=4342#p4342

Since you are using a portable version, use the preferences folders. Then it is as Pat625 describes

Put layerfx.py in your plug-ins folders
Put Tree_bark.scm in your scripts folder
Put the two ...texture.jpgs in your patterns folder

here an all-in-one screenshot



Check that layerfx.py shows bottom of layers menu and tree_bark in the menu bar.

...and it does work Win10 / Gimp 2.10.10



Things that can go wrong. The other versions layerfx.scm and layerfx-2.8.py have problems with Gimp 2.10 if you have them installed remove.

If using Rod's 'all-plugins-go-in-own-folder' make sure the folder name matches the plugin name (or take it out of that d..m folder)

[racer-x]

I just noticed on his screenshot that he has no python support. That appears to be the problem. Perhaps one of the "Windows" users can help him on this? Maybe use one of the portable versions that include python?

[gimper66]

then I close gimp and restart it

[rich2005]

What a mess. My advice is disable your old .gimp-2.8 profile and the .../Gimp 2.10 profile folders by renaming amd run Gimp to create a new clean default profile & start again - Up to you.

Lets get some conventions straight. Plugins and folders. Because some Windows plugins contain dependencies 'dll' files maybe a extra .exe file, Windows 10 will use a container folder with the same name as the plugin.

This is the case with gmic_gimp_qt and very few other Windows plugins (liquid rescale , bimp maybe)

Not the case for plugins like 'resynthesizer' which are two independent plugins, resynthesizer.exe & resynthesizer-gui.exe

For single plugins it does not make sense to 'wrap' in a folder. You can do it but it is extra work for no gain.

Your layerfx does not work because the folder is the wrong name



Then you have scripts mixed in there and gmic files all over the place.

Best of luck with that setup...and for Windows users who think that reinstalling Gimp is a cure-all. Your Gimp profile remains which is the problem in the first place.
