Bevel for text
#2
That is a really old  python plugin  bevel2_1.py 

It is not 100% compatible with Gimp 2.10 but you can get it to work with a bit of user intervention.
Unpack the attached zip. Put bevel2_1.py in your Gimp plugins folder C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins

It works with selections, so use the colour select and select just the text in the text layer.
The plugin is in Filters -> Distorts -> Bevel
Run the plugin, enter the values.
This is where it breaks in Gimp 2.10 Change the layer mode to Hard Light.

Suggestion: Avoid these old tutorials Wink

----------------------------------
A better bet for an easy bevel effect in Gimp 2.10 is gt-bevel
Also in the zip is gt-bevel-210.scm put this in C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\scripts
Find that in Filters -> Decor -> GT Bevel  Choose the 'Curved' option.
