Pixey 4,661 Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 @flmngseabass you have to restart Paint.net after you put the .dll into the effects folder. I concur with @BoltBait that the link @Ego Eram Reputo gave is working but it's a different Plugin to 'Water Reflection' Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

Pixey 4,661 Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 So - I'm starting to get confused here. @flmngseabass reported that he could not see the Water Reflection Plugin in the Drop down. Then we get into discussing' Wet Floor Reflection' and whether the link to it is broken - which it is not. So, back to @flmngseabass's query I have tested the Water Reflection by removing the old one I had, down loading anew from Page 1, and re-inserting into the Effects Folder. It works fine. 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

flmngseabass 3 Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Hi Pixey. I have tried using the wet floor reflection plugin and when I do I see absolutely no effects in whatever image I am using it in. Totally ineffective. I have used the water reflection plugin in the past and it worked fine and yes, I have restarted Paint.net before trying to use it and it is NOT in the dropdown list as shown in my screenshot image. I'm at a loss:(:a Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pixey 4,661 Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 You must have your image on a new transparent layer. i.e. New Layer and then go to Effects - Distort - and Wet Floor Reflection like this: Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

flmngseabass 3 Posted November 18 Report Share Posted November 18 Hi again. Still having issues with the "water Reflection" plugin. It's in the effects folder in my paint.net folder but when I open the program it does NOT show up!!:(:(:( Now, I will say that I have two "effects" folders in the paint.net folder but the water reflection plugin is in BOTH:) Could that be the problem and if so, how do I correct it?? Thanks....anyone and everyone:)!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pixey 4,661 Posted November 18 Report Share Posted November 18 Which version, Classic or Store Bought, do you have of paint.net? Also, your 2nd screen shot looks like another program and not paint.net. Please close paint.net after you put the dll into the Effects folder (if you have Classic) and then look again under 'Distort'.

Ego Eram Reputo 2,712 Posted November 18 Report Share Posted November 18 It is hard to make out your files from the screenshot. It looks like you have loads of strange stuff in there. I'd recommend you delete EVERYTHING in your Effects folder and reinstall the plugins you need from fresh downloads from this forum.

flmngseabass 3 Posted Tuesday at 07:24 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 07:24 AM Hello again. So I downloaded the new Water Reflection DLL you provided on page one of this discussion and it is clearly in my effects folder but still, it will NOT load into the distort drop-down window in the program:(:( ps. what is your real name??:):) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pixey 4,661 Posted Tuesday at 01:33 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 01:33 PM Just for the heck of it: 1. Close PDN 2. Run the PdnRepair.exe which is found in the Paint.net folder. 3. Reopen PDN and look again.

flmngseabass 3 Posted yesterday at 07:07 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 07:07 AM Hi Pixey. Closing and restarting PDN does bot work either:(: Thanks so much for your input though, much appreciated. I may empty all the effects and start over again as suggested by Ego Eram Reputo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
