I have been using Gimp-3.0.5 DEV release and i ran Glossy Balloon, and Frozen Gel, and neither one crashed Gimp-3.0.5.
Can you replicate the crash? How or which filter does this?
Thanks!
EDIT
After running Bloody ICE and using random seed, the filter ran fine. Then i reopened the effect and tried to adjust the settings and got the crash.
After reinstalling the newest Windows DLL plugins, I received no more crashes. However, Random Seed does not seem to work.
Also, I wonder if you have a long waiting time loading fonts in Gimp-3.0.4 or Gimp-3.0.5 versions?
The GEGL Syntax for Bloody Ice's random seed is completely valid and works by calling 3 gegl wind operations. I confirmed it works on Linux and it baffles me that it would not work on Windows.
Here is what it is doing
A seed property in its most generic form meant to interact with 3 gegl:wind redirects. `rand` is the default name seed properties have. I leave that untouched
property_seed (seed, _("Random seed for icicles"), rand)
3 GEGL wind operatgions are defined here with valid properties
wind1 = gegl_node_new_child (gegl,
"operation", "gegl:wind", "direction", 3, "style", 1, "threshold", 4,
NULL);
wind2 = gegl_node_new_child (gegl,
"operation", "gegl:wind", "direction", 3, "style", 1, "threshold", 4,
NULL);
wind3 = gegl_node_new_child (gegl,
"operation", "gegl:wind", "direction", 3, "style", 1, "threshold", 4,
NULL);
The redirect calls 3 GEGL internal gegl:wind seeds
gegl_operation_meta_redirect (operation, "seed", wind1, "seed");
gegl_operation_meta_redirect (operation, "seed", wind2, "seed");
gegl_operation_meta_redirect (operation, "seed", wind3, "seed");
This is universal for both Windows and Linux. If you still report the seed doesn't work please test the seed of other plugins of mine like Recursive Diamonds, Marble, Ocean's Surface, Aura. Logically it makes NO SENSE that the seed would not work. Lastly Bloody Ice has no errors in the terminal.
