Windows 10: Gimp Update out

Works great, thanks!









The first install "uninstalled Gimp 2.8 but left all the plug ins and addons, so opening Gimp I keep getting the errors and had to click about a 1000 times ok, after the 5th one, I killed it in task manager, and uninstalled EVERYTHING to do with Gimp, deleted all the folders in AppData, User Folder, ProgramData(On C: drive), and the Gimp keys in current user & system.

Now it opens clean.
Until I try and install G'MIC probably*Wink

 

Horace, gmic 2.2.2. is not working for me*Sad
It doesn't show up in Filters

 

I'm late mentioning not to mix the install folders but you discovered that the hard way. *Biggrin
Keep then in two separate folders in Program Files and all is well.

I'll add something up...

 

This are my steps for the GTK version, follow in order.

1. get the gtk zip





2. extract dll's to bin folder





3. skip replacement: only one dll is extra there.





4. extract the exe and the rest (no dll's!) to the plugin folder





5. fire it up and start gmicing




*Cool

 

I got G'MIC to work differently now.

I downloaded the 2.10 ported ones from here, and did malware and AV checks, both clear: gmic-community/plug-ins_GMIC_GIMP_GTK_for_GIMP-2.10.0_20180430.7z at master · dtschump/gmic-community · GitHub

Extracted with 7 Zip, and place both folders in:
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins




In preferences added to the plugins folder:




Now no extra folders in the User folders, and I have both gtk & qt:

 

Thanks for the link, as the official ones I used are still 2.8 noted. But either way it should work.

No need for QT and GTK one at the same time; they're the same plugin but different UI, so one is enough. *Biggrin

 

On 2.8 I found QT to be faster actually, on my system you notice the difference, in speed really.

 

wow, this 2.10 is fast.
I used repair/solidify, that used to take a while on 2.8, but 2.10 uses all 12 threads and just fly's!
My test:

From this:




To this in 2 seconds(instead of 30 seconds):

 

Well I've updated here with the one in your link, Cliff.
Worth it.

GTK is just two files install.




Seems to be a pre-release of gmic 2.2.3 for gimp 2.10 so thanks again for the link!

 

Interesting benchmarks.

Indeed. As I said, multi-core support is a game-changer for 2.10.

 

You're welcome*Smile
