This update adds a new 3D style and provides more dialog options to modify the 3D effect.

Download the plug-in and add it to your user plug-in folder. Load up a custom font and run the filter from:

Filters>>Custom Font Tools>>Faux 3D v0.02...

The new style gives a slightly more perspective look to characters compared to the original style. The example below shows the normal version of a character with the style 2 version and the style 1 version below (development version dialog in the screenshot).

Style 2 compass directions applied with the same custom font (original in the centre):

The appearance of the 3D effect varies greatly and depends largley on the original character face; I have added options to give more user control over blur and scaling and the type of mode to apply layers with.

Hi Skinnyhouse,

After downloading the new version of the plugin today (V0.02) and trying to test it, I only find version V0.01 when I try to activate the plugin.

Krikor - Faux3D ghost version

I've restarted the Gimp twice, but I still find version V0.01 only.

The strange thing is that I deleted version V0.01 and it shouldn't be accessible anymore.

Any clues as to what might be going on?

Thx!

Edited:

After restarting the Gimp 4 times and still showing only version V0.01:

• I checked the path in Edit - Preferences - Folders; OK

• Deleted version V0.02 (theoretically I ran out of plugin);

But when I restarted the Gimp for the fifth time... the version was not only present but still running smoothly! Even though I don't have the plugin in any folder!

I will restart Win....

Edit 02...

It's working fine now!

Krikor - Faux3D ok
