Does anybody have fixed this script or can Scripters or Coders please fix it . I keep getting error message when I try to create stars with this script. I don't know who wrote, otherwise I would contact the creator. Thank in advance.

You should always upload your non-compliant script. Don't assume everyone has that script.

Here it is...

@Pocholo
Change line 80 to
(set! lum (+ (rand 160) 31))
32 can bring the total pixel value outside the max allowed 255 (max 191+64)

Uhm, tried to re-set the original value of 32 and the script works now on my PC; when I first tested it I got the same error as Pocholo. IDK.

IMHO it works when the total sum of the rand functions do not produce a value>255.

It works...randomly.
Hence, ignore my previous posts.
There should be another reason for failing.

Thank you for trying dinasset, I found out that Gnu Tux was the one who made the filter. I know he's been away because of medical condition.

This script is very erratic. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I can't figure it out and gave up trying. My advice would be to get it to work one time, then make a brush out of it.

I don't have interest in this, because I have much better means of rendering star fields using other programs.

Have I found the culprit? Not sure.
But I think it's because sometimes pixels render on the direct edge of the picture, which seems to be a problem in GIMP 2.10.
I have done the following changes to avoid this behaviour and run the script several times and with lots of stars! without errors:
Find following lines in the sections and replace

Oh Wow, nelo...Thank you thank you thank you. I vow my head to you, you are the only one who had succeed in fixing this script. My hat is off to you! great work.
I tested it 10 out of ten no errors... Whooooohooo
I will replace the prior uploaded file with the fixed. Thank you once again.

Good finding, Nelo !

Thank you very much, Nelo for fixing the script.

Thanks Nelo. Works great.

Excellent script-fu; added some sparkle to the mix. Like the fact that this version adds color to stars unlike the original that I had (but I faked that using color noise set to color). Kudos for the update.
