Ok Partha I will do that. I have to go back to Windows, I am now in Linux Fedora on my other hard drive.

Molly,

Thanks! I have gotten feedback on my website that 64-bit downloaded and installed perfectly including the plugins. When you are ready just PM and we can sort this all out.

Partha

Ok thanks,
I used control panel and got rid of all traces or previous installation and re-downloaded again from your site. So far, no errors BUT also no GMIC, Melatica in file-logos didn't work, under Script-Fu > Edges, picture frame doesn't work or add mat, but the dialog comes up but nothing happens.
Under distorts, there is no bevel.
I have to go for a while to prepare supper so I will come back later and try some more things to see what works and doesn't work.

Bevel should be in decor Molly.

It probably is Erisian, but the one I like is supposed to be in distorts, maybe I just have to add it from my arsenal. thanks

Ok. Didn't realize you had two.

I was so happy to log in and see the news of partha's build, I've been waiting for it with great anticipation. The install went perfectly, (I use the 64 bit), have used G'MiC and am anxious to get going with it.


Thank you soooooo much Partha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Partha
Here is what I know so far.
When I open your Gimp, I have to X out 18 times cuz I get that same error that many times, except everyone is from a different plug-in. Here are the names,
wavelet-denoise.exe, twist.exe, saturate.exe, resynth.exe, pspi.exe, Plasma2.exe, mathmap.exe, gmic_gimp.exe, gimp-plugin-toy.exe, depth-merge.exe, p4m.exe, colorize.exe, extention-script-fu.exe.

Under file > logos > metallica, no error but also doesn't work. I think this is Graechans script and it hasn't been compiled for gimp-2.8, not sure.
Under Script-Fu, edges, picture frame and add matt don't work, no error and the dialog comes up but nothing happens.

No GMIC, no MathMap. No Gap

There might be lots more but this is what I have come up with so far.

@ erisian, I emailed the bevel plug-in for you.

Sure, I'll reinstall it and do a capture of every error. It may have to be done tonight.

As I posted here and so I don't duplicate, but so you can see...I have discovered I am having some .py issues. As in, the one's i put in my plug-ins folder...don't show up. Such as Gurm...paint.net callout...(the two main ones I need)....and a few misc. ones that aren't a big deal. I am going to try moving them to the C://program files gimp or playing around with it in case I figure out what I am doing wrong...

The original post is here...
Original post where you mentioned you installed python in your build with my info.






thank you so very very much Partha...other than this it's worked like a charm.

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.

I forgot to add that the same thing happens with 4 of my computers.

Molly,

Those plugins are not provided by me. Would you do me a favor? Please download the "Useful Plugins" from my website, run the installer and tell me if you have the same issues?

Thanks,
Partha

Gms9810,

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

Thanks Jorden. Praise like this makes it worthwhile.

I left you an response in the other thread about Python.

I am confused Partha. I didn't add all those plug-ins, they were in with your install. Am I supposed to take them out and start over?

Me too. since I don't provide PSPI, mathmap etc. They are not in my build. My build is Gimp (and nothing added to it). I have a separate download called "Useful Plugins" which contains the wavelet series, advance tone mapping etc. which are very useful for me for photography.

Sorry Molly.

I took the whole thing out again and downloaded it again. I still got the same 18 errors while opening gimp. I also downloaded your useful plugins and ran that. I don't know what is going on. Why would all these things show up in the 2.8 plug in user folder but not run when I try them. It is strange. I don't know what to to next, except maybe take my book and go to bed and try again tomorrow. I installed them in program files(x86) folder. If it doesn't work tomorrow, I will try the 32 bit and see what happens.

Partha i am patiently looking forward to testing your Gimp-2.8 portable 32 bit when it becomes available.

Me too...especially if it has G'mic and some nice plug-ins already in it.
