good dithering plugin

[phasmid]

Hey guys. Nice work!
I am new to skinning. Im using GIMPshop 2.2.8. Is there better dithering plugins for indexing the skins. I have used the built-in Steinberg and VCdither (gimp plugin). OK results. Tried the Depthdither (photoshop plugin) but it wont run in GIMPshop. I did copy the DLL and plugin files from this site to run photoshop stuff.
Can u help me out and plug me in?

Hi there,

I've no experience with Depthdither myself, I think most I know who skin for IL2 use BRIGHT to do palette conversions. I am not sure there is a working BRIGHT system for GIMP.

What you might try is the manual BRIGHT conversion, just export your skin as a 24bit BMP and then BRIGHT will do the conversion outside of GIMP.

well it serves me right for being cheap. Have to do it the long way with GIMP. Skins looking much better. Thanks for getting back to me with the help.

Ah glad to help. Although I prefer Photoshop Elements, I have a bit of experience with GIMP and it can perform very nicely.
