Did you get @Ed Harvey's updated effects for 5.0?

 

Missed it. Ed renamed the thread rather than creating a new one (my usual flag for a new release). I've added the new package and flagged v4.0 as Deprecated. The PDF will be updated next month.

February Update

 

Three plugins and a pack included in this update.

 

Edge Detect Classic and Sharpen Classic are re-releases of pre-5.0 plugins by @BoltBait.

 

Generate 96 Colors by @MadJik is not new. Somehow it got missed in previous versions of the Index! Now it gets it's time in the sun

March Update

 

.......umm, nothing. Check in again in April

[Panchdara]

Good morning. A Plugin Browser request:

 

Generate a listing of the .DLL files and then when one selected to display the plugins within that .DLL. (Sorta similar to what is displayed per Author) Just an idea.

 

[Ego Eram Reputo]

Hi  @Panchdara , if you type in the name of the DLL as the keyword and you'll get all the plugins in that DLL returned. Like this....

 

 

Cool?

[Panchdara]

Thank you EER.... I musta been half asleep when I wrote that in this particular thread.... I should have written my thought in the Plugin BROWSER thread, not the INDEX thread...

 

That being said, thank you. I'll use your method for the time being. 👍👍

April Update

 

.......umm, still nothing. I'm betting this is the first time in 12 years we've had no new plugins two months running.

 

Check in again in May

May Update

 

One new plugin this month from our old friend Pascal (who still has my vote for the most disturbing avatar....)

 

Smooth Julia Fractal Pascal Render any fractal from the Julia set (in grayscale). Makes use of normalized iteration counting to blend smoothly between shades. Increasing Iterations and Quality will result in a high quality fractal. CodeLab source code provided.

 

Enjoy

[Pixey]

Thank you @pascal I will be trying this out 😹

I have coordinated with @SodiumEnglish to add "Permanent Links" to the Plugin Index.

Below the search filters, there is now a button that creates a link based on your set parameters.

 

The button will create links like this:

https://forums.getpaint.net/PluginIndex?keywords=Grid&author=All+Authors+&type=1&status=7&compat=3&order=title&menu=All+Menus+&release=0

 

 

If you only care about certain search parameters, you can omit the other parameters from the URL.  If you do omit a parameter, the default value of that parameter will be used.

So, you have sorter links like these:

https://forums.getpaint.net/PluginIndex?author=toe_head2001

https://forums.getpaint.net/PluginIndex?keywords=Grid

[Ego Eram Reputo]

- yep, all five stars!

 

Many thanks to @toe_head2001 and @SodiumEnglish for this neat enhancement. You guys rock!

August Update is cancelled due to a lack of plugins. Check back next month

[Covakel]

Hi All,

Long time user, first time poster. 

Just getting into plugins and just found the index, amazing piece of work!

 

Is there a way to tell either the popularity or number of times downloaded of a plugin. Not for the reason of any kind of popularity contest, but more to figure out the tools people commonly use?

 

Thanks!

Your best bet is to go here:

 

https://forums.getpaint.net/forum/44-plugin-packs/

 

Download the plugin packs that are pinned and marked with a star.

 

However, you probably shouldn't just download a bunch of plugins you'll never use.  Best is to download them as you need them.

September Update

 

One new filetype this month, from a first-time author. Welcome aboard @Dummiesman!

 

Angel Studios TEX/XTEX FileType Dummiesman Load and save of almost all TEX/XTEX files supported by the Angel Game Engine

October Update

 

No new plugins this month. I guess all the Devs are reading up on the newly released API Documentation

@MadJik @Ego Eram Reputo

Can you confirm TreeGen has been removed from your plugin pack and no longer works?

Headaches trying to re write a form based plugin?

[AndrewDavid]

Can I suggest breaking up the Effect Type Category into four separate fields :

 

 

Thanks in advance.

I don't think this is really necessary.

[toe_head2001]

Yeah, end-users don't care about the internal implementation of a plugin.

99.99% of people downloading plugins wouldn't even understand the terminology, and would just be a point of confusion.

AVIF FileType is missing? (or at least not tagged as bundled)

It is present in the list of FileTypes, so it is just missing the bundled tag.
