digital camouflage for gimp

Postby havoc » 08.28.10

i was looking for something like this for a long time, there are ways to create something like digital camo out of images, but it kinda sucked.

digital camouflage script for gimp

not exactly the real thing, but quite close.
note tho theres a mistake in the script in the last 2 lines (at least for gimp 2.4):
Code: Select all
(script-fu-menu-register "script-fu-digitalcamo-pattern"
                         "/File/Create/Patterns")


the right one should be something like that:
Code: Select all
(script-fu-menu-register "script-fu-digitalcamo-pattern"
                         "<Image>/Filters/DigitalCamo")



explanation for noobs:
0. download and install gimp, if you havent yet
1. select and copy the script
2. go to wherever-the-gimp-is-installed(or /home/user/.gimp-version for linux)/scripts
3. create empty .txt file, rename it to lets say digitalcamo.scb
4. paste the script
5. fix the last lines as shown
6. save
7. run gimp, open new file
8. go to Filters/DigitalCamo (or whatever you have entered in the last line)
8a. if there is no such thing in the filters menu, click on the Tools panel/Xtns/Script-Fu/Refresh Scripts. if it still is not in the filters menu, you are doing something wrong
9. enjoy the camo patterns
10. optional - use filters/enhance/antialiasing + add some noise to make it closer to the real thing

note the "pixels" on that image are not exactly square ones, it is believed thats result of the use of ANSI squares in the original software.

theres also some normal camo plugins/scripts for gimp, along with the one that comes installed, and another free one for photoshop, but tbh they all suck.

p.s. for those who dont understand what im talking about, check the image below for an example of digital camouflage
