racerx 273 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Cool plugin. Dang, I hate when I have a few pieces that I can't fit...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doughty 326 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Hi @Toe_Head=Is it possible to make the corner and edge pieces look like real corner and edge pieces. Also, pieces are beveled at the cut edge from the die cutter. I like the look of the pieces. @Racerx=Found where the pieces go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ego Eram Reputo 2,799 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Very cool I'm impressed I've been re-reading The Hobbit lately, so here's Thrain's Map in jigsaw.

toe_head2001 1,836 Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 I've been re-reading The Hobbit lately, so here's Thrain's Map in jigsaw. ooooh, that looks pretty fancy. Gold star for you too. @Toe_Head=Is it possible to make the corner and edge pieces look like real corner and edge pieces. Also, pieces are beveled at the cut edge from the die cutter. I like the look of the pieces. Corner and edges? You'll have to use the Scale and Offset controls to get good alignment (maybe crop too), and then fix the edges manually like @Ego Eram Reputo did (I assume). Could it be done automagiclly? Sure, I would need to rewrite part of the effect, and figure out the math. I'll look into it eventually. Bevels? Good point. @Ego Eram Reputo used bevels in his image, and it looks super good. Looks like @BoltBait's Bevel Object plugin was used. Here's the example image with bevels: Hidden Content: Run the effect with the Transparent line option, and then run the Bevel Object plugin. Have a second layer below with a solid color. Cool plugin. Dang, I hate when I have a few pieces that I can't fit...... In cases when you're going to remove pieces like that, I would recommend using the Transparent line option. Makes it easier to move them, and will give you a smoother edges. 1 Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to post Share on other sites
doughty 326 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Very good, guess I needed a small tutorial. I didn't see that I could do it myself. Thank you. I'm going to put my try at this right here. Edited October 7, 2015 by doughty 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eli 1,131 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Very nice effect. Though I wont dare to take a pair of scissors and cut it. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You'll have to use the Scale and Offset controls to get good alignment (maybe crop too), and then fix the edges manually like Ego Eram Reputo did (I assume). That was it exactly. For the edges - Once I rendered the pieces to their own transparent layer & created a solid border, I used Drop Shadow twice (sorry BoltBait!). Once for the highlights and once for the shadowed edges. I lowered the layer opacity to fine-tune the strength of the effect.

lynxster4 3,226 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) Very interesting effect! Good job on this plug-in. Here's my attempt at it: My image needs a little bit more work, I think, but overall I like it.

toe_head2001 1,836 Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 Version 2.0 posted. I rewrote the plugin, so it can do fancy things like calculating the maximum size the whole puzzle can be (based on the Scale), and delete all the pixels outside the puzzle border. See the first post for complete changelog and download link. 4 Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to post Share on other sites
toe_head2001 1,836 Posted December 5, 2015 Author Share Posted December 5, 2015 Version 2.1 posted. It's now much more accurate at low Scale values. 1 Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to post Share on other sites
toe_head2001 1,836 Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Version 2.2 posted. @xmario was not pleased with me changing the scale max to 5. I guess he works on enormous images. I changed it back to 10. 3 Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to post Share on other sites
