Convert some Photoshop resources (GDR and PAT files) to GIMP's

Open the zip and from the Windows/64bits folder put the plugin ps-pat-load_1.exe in your Gimp User profile plugins folder. For the samj portable that is ....Preferences/plug-ins

Do not worry about the other files, those for other OS and code for compiling.

The plugin allows you to open the pattern file File -> Open and it opens as layers.

There is a good plugin for exporting layers here: https://github.com/kamilburda/gimp-expor.../tag/3.3.5  (you might already have that or similar) I exported straight to the patterns folder, then refreshed the patterns but anything you like. I tend to use pngs for patterns rather than Gimp .pat files.

With a good bit of editing I can just get that into a 1 minute demo https://i.imgur.com/0xf7KNl.mp4 Win10 / samj portable 2.10.32

Hi rich2005,

I followed your instructions and everything worked. 

The strange thing is that when I used Photopea I got 16 .pat of that same SkinTexture.zip (not just 8). 

I had named my .pat numerically from 001 to 016.
I have now discovered that there are 7 duplicate image pairs, from 002 to 016.
Only .pat 001 and 009 are not duplicated.

Using this plugin was gigantically much faster and even filtered out the duplicity generated by Photopea. 

rich2005, thank you very much!
