You don't need to download/install Python. It's already installed with my build. I am afraid I don't have Mathmap and Gap.

All I have in Python is Python-Fu under filters with dropdown > console, nothing at the top to do with Python.

That means Python is working and good to go. Now you can copy all your python scripts to your .gimp-2.8/plug-ins folder and restart Gimp and they will show up in the appropriate locations in the menu.

Partha, your 64-bit build has performed fine for me thus far. If I encounter any problems, I'll be sure to let you know. Running fine though!

If you used Partha's build of 2.8 python support is already built in. I believe he said mathmap doesn't work yet and GAP I'm unsure of.

Ok, Partha, I think I have almost everything working. The only errors I get now are a couple of plug-ins that I already deleted that gimp doesn't acknowledge. One is gmic_Gimp and tile-small_P4. I deleted them from my plug-in folder and it says they are still there but that is just a pesky minor thang.

Thank you very much for all your patience, you are very brave to put up with some of us, :teeth

I will tackle GMIC later.

You are welcome.

BTW, no need to tackle gmic. Now you can install my "Useful Plugins" collection and gmic should appear on the menu without any issues.

I did install the useful plug-ins after I installed the gimp.exe. I just wonder if they went to the correct place, It didn't ask me it just installed. I guess I will go hunting for them if I know what to look for. I know they are in control panel right under Gimp-2.8. There still is no GMIC in my Gimp and I looked in the GMIC website and there is just 32 bit in there.

EDIT: I went into my plug-ins folder and deleted the gmic-gimp.exe and the other two gmic ones, then ran your useful plug-ins again and now they are there. woo hoo.
Now I have to figure out why my script-fu > edges > picture frame and add map won't work.

I uploaded a new build that probably fixes this bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669818.

If the file size display of 1.3G bothers you, please uninstall my previous build, download the new version and install.

Thanks,
Partha

Just noticed your entry at bugzilla Partha. Kudos to you; they ought to hire you over there. lol

Now if only the lag when color management bug can get patched; the PSPI/User Filter problem too. Then life would be a joy indeed.

Partha,
I was just wondering, since I didn't see it anywhere here or on your site, whether you have a list of the plugins that you include in the useful plugins folder?
Thanks

molly · **Joined:** Apr 07, 2010 **Posts:** 14182

I wondered about that too. It would be nice to know what they are so we don't dupe.

I've attached a zip of all of the screen captures. There 184 of them, too many to add to one big file and at the moment I don't have a working copy of gimp on this computer.
I do have the following to add that may or may not help:
All the dlls that it insists aren't there are there.
Reinstalling will not solve the problem.
I tried restarting and it didn't change.
I tried registering some of the worst offenders via regsvr, and it still doesn't see them.
I can't help but wonder hat I should have installed but don't.
Sorry I had to send them in a zipped file.

Gms9810,

I tried the official release before I tried yours. I didn't get as many errors but got a dozen or so. I removed the 'official ' release with revo, whih usually does a good job. I'll remove it again and pay particular attention to getting everything then reinstall yours again.

I hate to say this, but you are mixing and matching.

My build will never ask for intl.dll which is pretty much the error I see in the first 100 of the jpgs.

Here is my guess. You installed a Gimp build that was not mine. You didn't uninstall correctly? Now some of the leftover plugins from the old build are asking for DLLs from the old install and looking for DLLs which no longer exit.

Please clean out your previous Gimp install. Download my build and install that. My build does not put any DLL in any place other than its own bin directory.

Hope that helps. If not, just PM me.

We can solve this.

Thanks,
Partha

I was not online for for about 1 day a problem of my laptop (not yest fully solved) and a lot of things happed...8 pages to go see

gald that your new build are ready..as now i may use only a 32bit desktop running xp, so i can't try anything at 64 bit (including my own version that seems fixed now...)

i hope to fix soon...did you already made a 32bit build ?
