Today I’ll be posting a tutorial on how to install GAP (GIMP Animation Package).

OK that, restart Gimp for the extra paths to take effect. Some time you will have to OK that either now or after adding the scripts path.įor the scripts: Select the Scripts entryĮxactly the same procedure as the plugins. Browse for the User\your-name\Gap27\plug-ins folderĦ. Edit -> Preferences -> Foldersįor the plugins: Select the Plug-ins entryĢ. Now you have to add to the Gimp Folders paths. Unzip the zip (In Windows, click on the zip to open it) That gives a folder GAP27. The "updated" ( 2.7) files are here: This is a 7zip package, which Windows users usually do not have an unpacker, so I repackaged as a plain zip file here:įor Gimp 2.10 installation, because of the way folders are now recognised as plug-ins (not going to work with GAP) my advice is add the Gap folders explicitly to the plug-ins/scripts paths in Edit -> Preferences -> Folders The animstack tools in GIMP are also very useful for putting together animations, depending on what you want to do, while if you are after something in particular there are experts (and scripters) around here who could probably help. For example, I wouldn't use GAP to extract frames from a video as virtualdub is far better. PS: If you have problems getting GAP to work it's worth mentioning what you plan on doing with it as there may be scripts or other apps people can recommend. Then you can get GAP from here (from what I remember, perhaps there is a slightly newer version if you do a search): I would suggest you do something similar. I have a 64bit installation of GIMP 2.10 for regular use and use the portableapps version of 2.8 (32 bit) for any use of ancient plugins like this.
It won't work with 2.10, I tried when 2.10 first came out out of interest. I think most people use it with an old version of GIMP like 2.6 - I'll leave it up to the experts around here to confirm - but I have it installed in a portable version of 2.8 and still occasionally use some of the functions like the videoencoder. GAP is old and sadly hasn't been updated for a long time. I was wondering if I'd missed some new update or something when I saw GAP 4.9.3 (the GAP versions I had were 2.6 and 2.7) but I see that GAP is for something completely different - "GAP (Groups, Algorithms, Programming) is a system for computational discrete algebra".
