GIMP Plugin Registry

Gimp Plugin to import blizzard BLP verson 2 file importer.

I created this in 2009 to assist me with creating a World of Warcraft addon. I couldn't find any BLP importers for the Gimp then, so I decided to make my own.

I don't like the look of the existing beveling scripts so I wrote one up. It iterates shrinking selections to generate a bump map. It will use (in preferred order) the current selection, the alpha of the active layer, or the whole layer for the shape. The result is generated as a new layer set to hard light blend mode. It has:
- Inner and outer chisel/carve
- "Softness" parameter controls how hard/soft the heightmap bevel is
- "Effect Blur" parameter performs a post-bevel masked blur to make the chisel look more "puffy"
- Option to keep the bumpmap

Draws one of five types of predefined spirals, or lets the user modify the power parameter. The formula is:

r = a + b * theta ^ n

r - radius
a - growth factor
b - multiplication factor
theta - angle
n - power factor

The predefined types are: Archimedean (n = 1), Fermat (n = 1/2), Circle (n = 0), Lituus (n = -1/2), Hyperbolic (n = -1). If you choose a predefined type, the power factor you input on the form will be disregarded.

A simple detail enhancing/sharpening filter based on my simple bilateral code. It is essentialy a low precision version of the detail enhancement stage of some local tone mapping algorithms.

In non technical terms this is basically the anti surface blur. It takes a surface blur as a base layer, compares it with the original image and magnifies the differences. It brings out textures and makes skin look pretty horrible.

It will appear under:

Filters->Enhance->Enhance Details...

Windows version provided by Francois_C. Updated.

A surface blur filter based on a simplified version Porikli's O(1) bilateral filter.

Unfortunately due to the nature of the algorithm memory overheads can be severe. This filter uses a tile based implementation, which limits overheads to about 64mb.

On the plus side it is reasonably fast and scales well with filter radius.

When installed it should appear under filters->blur->simple bilateral

There is a mercurial repository which will be kept up to date with the latest code on my web site. This can be accessed with:

Alters image to have gradually fading overlapped borders when tiled. Like The GIMP's filter Make Seamless, only not as strong an overlap. To achieve this, the image size is reduced. The overlap amount can be chosen by the user. The script can be accessed through /Filters/Map/Make Weakly Seamless...

This script simulates a photochrom image, a lithographic printing process from the 1890's:

Offsets all layers by half. Image/Half_Tile_Offset Useful when creating a tilable texture. Just press Alt+I,O and you can start editing the image-edge seams.

A workflow-friendly fast alternative to going around every layer and selecting Layer/Transform/Offset... / Offset by x2,y2 / OK

Usage:

Let's say we have this 256x256 crop:
