G'Mic Filter Error

[BurningBlake]

Hello,

I’m new to Krita and recently learned about the G’MIC filter. I’ve been using it for version 4.4.6 and it has worked rather well. I recently updated to version 4.4.7 and I got the following error message when I activate it:

I re-installed the previous version and the error is still happening. I’m at a loss about what could be wrong and was wondering if you had any advice?

Krita version: 4.4.7
Windows Installer
Windows 10 Pro

Error occurrance path:

Black &White
Colorize (interactive)
Input Type: Lineart
Output Type: Image + Colors (2-layers)
Image to grab color from: PNG image
OK

Hello and welcome to the forum

This problem has been noted before, fairly recently:

GMI'C filters errors

I’ve used these thousands of times. All of sudden I’m getting errors: *** Error in ./fx_spherize/spherize/*repeat/*local/ *** Command ‘input’: Unrecognized item ‘0°’ in expression ‘…rotf = rot(0°)…’. *** Error in ./fx_tree/_fx_tree/*local/ *** Command ‘input’: Unrecognized item ‘0°’ in expression ‘…R = rot(0°)…’. It seems related to “angle”. No matter what you change the angle to, you get the error: *** Error in ./fx_tree/_fx_tree/*local/ *** Command ‘input’: Unrecognized item ‘38.7°’ in e…

I think that G’MIC has updated itself with a bad update,
The updates are stored in a particular folder and will therefore be applied to any ‘replacement’ G’MIC package you try.

I think you can delete the contents of that folder, if you can find it, then disconnect from the internet, run krita and the G’MIC filter and turn off its update ability in the settings/options.
Then you can reconnect to the internet.

Please read that topic linked above to get a better understanding of it.

Thank you for directing me to this thread. I fixed the issue by following their instructions, which are to download G’MIC files from the developer’s website and then install manually, as discussed in the thread. Now the filter is working again.
