Gimp morphing plugin + video hints - rich2005 - 02-24-2019
An earlier post asked about using the old GAP package, problems with that and also the included morph plugin.
As a trial, the whole of the old-and-flakey GAP package is not needed, the morph plugin on its own works fine.
There are any number of howto's/tutorials on the internet for using GAP, if you are into animation, go for those.
Morphing 2 images together can be a bit of fun, so I have attached for Windows users (linux users look in your distro GAP package)
gap_morph.exe which provides the morphing interface
export-jpg.py which just exports all the layers to separate files if you want to make a video (plugin thanks to Kevin)
Unzip and put in your Gimp user profile plugins folder C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins
You might just want a gif animation but often a video is both better quality and a much smaller file size.
Some hints on making a video. Plenty of video editor/tools around. I suggest Avidemux http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/
...and...the inevitable video about the whole thing

Hello RICH2005.
I'm often very interested in your contributions to this forum.
I'm taking advantage of one of them.
I'm a heavy user of the GAP plugin with GIMP 2.10.
However, I want to upgrade to GIMP 3.0.4, and unfortunately, most of the old scripts no longer load, let alone the GAP plugin.
I'm making adaptations for the scripts and they look fine now.
For GAP, I don't know where to find the old sources.
Do you have any repository links, to understand the incompatibilities with 3.0, to make adaptations and share them with the community if I succeed ?
Thank you very much in advance.
