Hello everyone,

I've been playing around with the maze generator inside gimp 2.10 creating mazes for FPS game im working on. what i was wondering is there a simple way to have gimp auto generate the mazes as in saying i want 10 mazes with the only thing changing be the random seed. then have them save them selfs as has png to a folder.   

Thanks for any help on this subject.

   
After initial MAC startup, all type in modules are gibberish with tiny reference numbers etc. Whaz up!

I've started having problems when using the pen tool. I usually click and drag to get smoother arcs when using the tool. I've done it this way for 25 years with both photoshop and Gimp. Now, most of the time I'm working, the anchor comes off the line, or the handles come off of the anchor at angles making a mess of my path. I then have to remake the path with just clicks and get a unsmooth path as a result. Any ideas?

I used the rectangle tool to make a selection like you would the path tool, I figured this was easier, but the border doesn't go away even when I click select>none and have a different tool pressed. Should I just not have used the rectangle tool then? Is the border impossible to get rid of?

Hello

This is my first post here, I'm a complete newbie to Gimp. I use it sometimes to "posterize" pictures I have taken with my digital camera. That's all  I do.

I was looking at a youtube video last week, the guy is restoring old machinery, and used GIMP to clean up a image he had scan. I would like to know HOW to do the same, can someone help me. I'm more of a garage guy than an artist

You can find his technic at 10:05.  of this video :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWikGne44F0
thank you

I was trying to make beautify which is a plugin for gimp 2.10.16 I got the error: package lcms2 was not found in the pkg-config search path

I then did a search of lcms2 and got:

Code:

I found something called "liblcms2.so.2" which may be what I need or do I have to install lcms2?  If what I have is what I need then am I going to have to add something to pkg-config search path?  I, obviously, am clueless so but figured I had better get some advise instead of charging ahead.

Thank you........................

Whenever I select text (alpha channel selection) I get those left over white pixels ... Can someone help me? Did I set anything wrong?

Well, I was trying for some definite effects on a text layer. Here is what I got:
    --first try
    --second try
    --third try.
The last one gets closer to what I was after--grateful if anybody can suggest a way to improve on it.
All 3 began from a bent text (thanks, Ofnuts!) colored with a blue-to-white linear gradient, to which I applied the follwing bump map (minimun blur):
   
1. default options, depth decreased to 2
2. same, azimuth moved to nearly vertical, plus bottom 2px removed (layer mask), because of too much white
3. is 2, minus the mask and with the bump map repeated, options as in 1.

As I said, the result isn't all I wished for, being quite new to bump maps... 
Any ideas?

from GIMP documentation I understand that GIMP processes internally all in 3x32b floating point no matter what bit depth is used.

What puzzles me most - sRGB is 8bit gamma corrected and if I import 3x16b TIFF, what happens to image originally exported with ProPhoto RGB???

is sRGB just for preview and all available data 3x16b are used for processing anyway, please?

I do not know how to explain it, hopefully you understand.

I am a newbie with GIMP 2.10.12
I am trying to remove the distortion introduced by glasses
I have come across this tutorial for photoshop
Basically the way I understand it:
1. Load image on layer 1
2. Select area inside eyeglass
3. Paste in new layer 2
4. Add layer mask to layer 2
5. Stretch image on layer 2. Layer mask should "restrict" the visible area to the original glass area

Well I am not getting it to work. Sorry I am pretty sure this is basic
When I stretch the image the layer mask is not covering anything. Appreciate any assistance...
