GIMP 2.10.20 flame plugin crashing
#1
Hello all,

I'm new to this forum and hope my question is addressed in the right way.
I'm using Gimp 2.10.20 (shortly upgraded from 2.10.12) and have a problem with the rendering filter "Flame".
Everytime, when I try to render something, Flame.exe crashes with an unspecified error.
I already tried to use different layers and apply the filter there, but it doesn't help.
As soon as I select the layer with the gradient flame.exe crashes. Even when I try to apply the filter directly to the background image, it crashes.
Error message is:

using gegl copy
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin\gimp-2.10.exe: LibGimpBase-WARNING: gimp-2.10.exe: gimp_wire_read(): error
GIMP-Error: Plug-in crashed: "flame.exe"
(C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\flame\flame.exe)
The dying plug-in may have messed up GIMP's internal state. You may want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.

I checked the permissions on the installation directory and changed them for all users to "full permissions", without any progress.
I tried to verify, if it is related to the size of the image - nope (no difference between a small image with a few millimeters or a large with 40x50 cm).
Any of you facing the same issue?

There was a bug in 2.8.x with the flame plugin, which could be worked around using new layers to apply the filter.
That doesn't work in 2.10.12 and 2.10.20.

If you need additional information, please let me know.

Notebook: Win10 64bit, 8GB RAM, 250 GB Harddrive

Can anyone help out here?
Thanks
Daniel
