BoltBait's Plugin Pack for v3.5.11 - Updated January 31, 2015

[Ren]

I got to the point where I downloaded the plugin from the link on the first page, and I went to extract the files to the Paint.NET/Effects file, but while that was going on a box popped up saying "You'll need to provide administrator permission to copy this folder"

How do I do that? Did I do something wrong to begin with?

[Simon Brown]

Ask the administrator to install it for you.

thanks for the update my old version didn't work with 3.36 it made lines of solid color every 5-6 pixels or so that were as long as the feather radius was wide. now there is no problem whatsoever.

I am having trouble downloading the plug in pack to my effects file in Paint.NET. It keeps telling me I need administartor permission. I AM the administrator on my PC. Any suggestions? :shock: :oops:

I am guessing you are using vista, and for that reason, you will need to follow these steps to fix the problem...

Ok i have no effect folder on my paint.net. If someone can tell me how to get 1 then thtll be most appreciated.

Right-click on your Paint.NET icon and select "Properties".

In the dialog box that comes up, push the "Find Target" button (or "Open File Location" if you're on Vista).

In the window that opens, double-click on the "Effects" folder.

Put the dll files in there... OK?

[tanknspank]

Thanks a lot. Ima smart little dude but when it comes to stuff like this i need a little help xD

There is no button to push like you said. If it matters i am running on Vista.

[BoltBait]

Sorry, I don't run Vista, maybe someone else can help?

[tanknspank]

Ok. Well thanks for trying.

[atypicalcarl]

In Vista, I believe it'll be called "Open File Location." Do as Bolt says and click the effects folder, then paste (or drag and drop) your dll there.

I am using version 3.36 of paint.net and vista 32 bit. I tried downloading the zip and extracting it, but vista wont allow me. I visited the link you gave, but I am a bit afraid whether or not I should activate the administrator account. Anyone else has done it? Is it safe? I am just a normal computer user and dont know much about the intricacies.

Kindly suggest.

Thanks for the plugins, I hope I can install and use those someday.

Edited Later: Ok I have copy pasted the dlls without creating the administrator account. I can see them in the paint.net software. Is there a thread where I can know how I can use them, especially the feather plugin?

Thanks again.

[atypicalcarl]

An administrator account is necessary because Vista won't allow you to easily get around DEP. You'll need it to move files to program folders, etc. The *very* cool codelab project can only build a dll if you're running paint.net as an administrator on Vista.

Visit the tutorials forum and read, read, read. It's a terrific resource!

what file do i download?

[Kelly_Girl33]

Looks really good . Thanks!

Colour Balance is a must. Have you considered adding a Greyscale "checkbox switch" and a contrast slider? You would have a great channel mixer. Outline, feather, selections - it's all good. Thank-You.

Hey BoltBait, could you possibly add options to your Bevel plugin? For example, Hard Chisel, Soft Chisel, and Pillow emboss. That way I can get rid of a couple of plugins and use yours instead.

[BoltBait]

Show me some examples of what you want and I'll explain why I can't.

Thanks!

[Lance McKnight]

Disregard then because if you can't be able to add those different bevelling options.

Edit: After I thought about what I meant, I decided to show you what I meant. In this tutorial, there were several different emboss/bevel being done. I currently have two plugins that does Bevel (beside yours), and Emboss/Engrave plugin. They are okay, but what I am looking for is a plugin that incoporate those "styles" and giving more control. I understand if they can't work because they are working from a selection of an image. However, running Emboss/Engrave or Bevel plugin, I have to select the image first before activating the UI in those plugins; otherwise, it will render the entire canvas rather than the selected object.

For some reason all your plugins disappeared from the effects and adjustments menu when i updated my Paint.NET version to alpha v3.5. I'll download again but i'd thought i'd let you know.
