I read the comments where the Converter was in DeviantART and i saw when it told me that to save the script information in a notepad as a .scm file. I did and saved it on desktop, but the icon didnt change into what a script file should chage into and the .scm I put behind the tittle was included into the title as well =l. something wrong here?
And if its not to much truble, can someone give me a download like to it instead? Because I find this confuising...


I think you may find that it is saving it as brush-batch.scm.txt if so ensure windows is showing the full file names including extensions then rename it removing the .txt

@BR7
I did that, the only problem is, I have StarCraft: BroodWar on my comp. .scm is the extension for StarCraft maps & games, so it conflicts. I think it doesn't know which to classify it as, either a GIMP script, or a SC map.

Terry - I have brood wars to and i get no conflicts. Make sure the script is saved in your Gimp Scripts directory. Don't just try to open it! Save it than open gimp

Pipper - Do you have MS .Net Frame work installed?

Very Cool! A big thanks to droz928 for providing this tut., kward1979uk for providing the brush conveter script, and all those who provide use of their brushes.

I just coverted my first brush set today and works well. I did have one flaw and that was after opening Gimp to convert brushes (xtns>script-fu>gimp-talk.com>brush-batch) I had to fill this info in manualy, but seems to work just fine.

Thanks again

Now locate your scripts folder, you can either left- click drag or copy/ paste to folder

Let me explain
I have the scrip installed etc.
But when I click "ok" after setting it all up it just closes the window wihtout loading anything.
It's like it won't do anything.

EDIT: and before you ask the colors are in default setting

The script won't wokr properly.
Is there some problem in it ?
I doesn't load anything just goes away and doesn't create the gbr files :o:
I tried doing it several times but it won't work.. and my gimp is 2.2.10..

I use windows BTW

The only thing i can suggest is that you have wither selected the wrond folder for the brushes to be loaded from or you have left the file type selection on one that is not contained in theat folder, what the script does is open the folder selected then search's for file with the selected filetype then only change them ones so for example if your folder contains giffs and jpeg's and the script is set for jpegs it will ignore all the giffs

AbrViewer.NET 1.0.1 saved them in the PNG dump file and they are there as png.
I choose png and put the dump file "Load From" and put the other file that I made next to PNG Dump in "Save To Folder".
i selected .png

Brush name: tribal-brushset1-
File Name: Tribal_1

It's all there, but still it won't work..

EDIT: Sorry for spelling errors but I said earlier english is my 3rd language and it's morning and I came to comp to catch you guys while your still online..
