Hello there.
Last day of the year, the perfect timing for a new G'MIC release

Thus, I'm happy to announce the release of G'MIC version, which includes an installer for GIMP 3.0 RC (Windows only).

3.5.0

Hope you'll enjoy it. Happy new year 2025 everyone !

Happy 2025

To be clear : G'MIC-Qt for GIMP 3.0 should compile on Linux too, if you have the GIMP 3 API installed on your system.
I don't know any Linux distro that proposes pre-installed packages for GIMP 3, so this means you have to install it by yourself
(and set the correct paths, and so on). That's why I haven't tested on Linux though and compiled it only for Windows (because on Windows, we have MSYS2 + pacman, which provides an easy way to install up-to-date GIMP 3 packages).

Fedora has `sudo dnf install gimp3` which installs GIMP 3 RC1 or RC2

Hello. Happy Holiday and thank you for all your work.

My specific issue is resolved, so this is just an FYI report.

GNU 2.10.38 on WIN 10. I upgraded to G'MIC 3.5.0 from 3.3.5. The following Faves, all with customized settings and all of which worked under the old version, gave a "can't find original" error message when I tried them under 3.5.0. The originals the faves were made from still seemed to be in their usual menu places.

I uninstalled/deleted everything I could find from both versions & reinstalled a fresh 3.3.5. I got all my Faves settings back from a separately backed-up "gmic_qt_faves.json" file from the WIN App Data Roaming folder. Everything for me works fine again.

Saw this one at PixLS site earlier David, but haven't downloaded the update to it yet. Kudos to you and your team for making G'MIC one of the most powerful and relevant tools this retoucher uses often.

what he said. I would not be able to do much of my restoring/editing without GMIC.

I got it working on Linux GIMP 3 RC2 + Git

Seems Samj got it out earlier. I downloaded one from her blog last week and it is 3.5.0 - just checked which one I had for Gimp 3.0.0 RC1
Are they the same David?
Maybe not as hers says 'pre'
EDIT:
Oh Ohhh, I downloaded the 'stable' version and now my gimp says I have no GMIC. I even turned my computer off and started again.

Post content deleted. :oops:

Sorry for the confusion - it was my mistake because I didn't check Preferences after installing Gimp 3RC2.

dtschump · **Joined:** Feb 12, 2021 **Posts:** 37

That's because you downloaded the 3.5.0 prerelease version, which is not the same as the final stable version.

MareroQ, two things:
- As G'MIC 3.5.0 stable has been released yesterday, the current versions of the 'pre-release' and 'stable' files are indeed the same.
- If the title bar of your plug-in shows '3.5.0_pre24112304', then believe me, your version of the plug-in running is one of the pre-release binary released before (for you, specifically,compiled on 23/11/2024 at 04:00am, which is clearly out-of-date), and *not* the latest stable.

You probably have an old version of the pre-release binary somewhere on your system that takes precedence to the stable version for GIMP (check your preferences : plug-in path).
Please uninstall it and try reinstalling the G'MIC-Qt plug-in from the 3.5.0 stable installer.
And you'll get something like this:

And you see, there are no '_preXXXXXX' left in the title bar.

The master is always right. :yes

My gimp shows that there is a GMIC in the filters -it is not greyed out. I try to open it and it tells me it is not. I also get an error message saying it crashed.
By the way I deleted all my other plugins before reinstalling this one. And I did it again today (2nd Jan) - still no joy

Well I got caught out yesterday evening with the file from https://gmic.eu/files/source/ and got the pre-release header. Repeat today and up-to-date.

Debian testing now comes with Gimp 3.0 RC2 and I was hoping that the Debian gmic_gimp_qt might work with either the gimp.org or the ivan-hc Gimp 3.0 appimages. Alas not. However the Debian (VM) looks like this:
