pyrochild Posted November 9, 2007 Author Share Posted November 9, 2007 This plugin won't work in the newest version of Paint.net (Alpha Release build 3.20.2865.28203) at least not for me. Had no problems with ScripLab before I updated PDN Here's the error return: [...] I really like this plugin ... hope we can figure out a fix. Pyrochild is waiting for the final release to fix the code. Unless you particularly like lots of things crashing on you, you should probably stick to Final release version of software. If you don't mind a few annoyances, go ahead with betas, but complaining about things not working in alphas is like walking across a bonfire and then complaining that it hurt your feet. It's just silly. david's right, I have already worked out the issues with ScriptLab, but since PdN 3.20 is still an alpha, things are likely to change and break it again, causing a nightmare of headaches for the users, not to mention myself. In short, you're gonna have to wait. Probably till the final release. Maybe just the beta, if you're lucky... ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

RollingTreasures Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Pyrochild is waiting for the final release to fix the code. Thank you ... I feel better already!

carbonize Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 It's probably already been said but this would be great for peoples tutorials such as the Fire effect. As well as writing the tutorial they could include a script for running through ScriptLab to achieve the effect. I mean you wont learn by using a script but it's an idea.

david.atwell Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 We (he allowed me to be a beta tester) actually thought of releasing it with a script that did the Fire effect. Problem was, it requires work on separate layers, which the effect API for Paint.NET won't allow the plugin to do. If you can figure out a way, we'd love to see it, though :-) The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies.

carbonize Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 So, at present, the plugin api for PdN does not allow for the creation of new layers nor the switching between them? Not a criticism just a question. C A R B O N I Z E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 That is correct. A plugin is only given the pixels in your selection (if active) on the currently selected layer to work on.

The_Lionhearted Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 It's probably already been said but this would be great for peoples tutorials such as the Fire effect. As well as writing the tutorial they could include a script for running through ScriptLab to achieve the effect. I mean you wont learn by using a script but it's an idea. That was actually the first thing I tried to attempt with this plugin...hopefully we'll have access to layers soon! My Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wither Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 :shock: I ignored this for quite awhile because I just figured it was something that would soar over my head. Oh the wasted minutes! [hangs head in shame] How wrong I was for ignoring a plugin because it has a technical sounding name... (The "Script" part had me thinking it would be more... you know, programmer oriented.)

amir Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 How about adding the option to import the undo history to the scriptlab. So if you didn't something nice, you can simply import the undo history and save it as a script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkShock Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I try to use it, but every time I do Paint.net tells me there's a plug-in error and asks if I want to restart. I restart, but it still doesn't work. ---- Gallery | Sig Tutorial | deviantART | Sig Videos | PhotoBucket ----D E S T I N Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyrochild Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 Sorry for the delay on this and my other plugins that aren't working in 3.20. Should be up sometime today or tomorrow. EDIT: Well, at least the other plugins I'm updating should be. ScriptLab... well, it might take an extra day or two. ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

pyrochild Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 Updated. Compatible with Paint.NET 3.20. Several bugfixes, including Bug/Quirk?Repro: Go through the first 3 steps of my Snowflake tut. Load the included *.sls file into ScriptLab. Quickly now, hit 'OK' on the ScriptLab dialog before preview renders. Everything in the top area should look fine but the bottom portion of canvas will have distorted/brighter snowflakes. /Blatant self-promoting masked in concern for the PdN community... ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

pyrochild Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 every time i go to save i get a message saying "error saving script" i still have the file but when i put it in effects and restart it, it is no where to be seen :x . i downloaded this from the thread with all of your plugins so sorry if it has been changed here. The thread with all of my plugins will always have the latest versions, so that's not the problem. What version of Paint.NET are you using? Where are you trying to save the script? i still have the file but when i put it in effects and restart it, it is no where to be seenWait.... are you saying you're trying to put the script file in the Effects folder? SLS aren't Paint.NET plugins; you have to use ScriptLab to load them. I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkbark00 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Pyro, I have a suggestion/request based on the conversation going on in this thread Would you be able to add check boxes that control which channels are modified by the effects selected?

Quenlin Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 For some reason, Scriptlab isn't showing up, period. There isn't an Advanced tab under effects or anywhere on Paint.net. Nevermind, updated PDN and it works now. Nice plugin Pyro, now I have macros! My DA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
