FFBatchMaster for Mac OS X

Looks like map_type has the following info
0=Full Image
1=
3=Bump
4=Normal

Need to create some settings to "Catch them all"

Back in the day there was Code Warrior IDE that made both mac and win apps easily compilable. Anything like this to help with a windows 8.1 version? Really digging the chaining concept!

Would it be of interest to be able to save a FilterChain (list of filters and the configs for each filter) to be able to open it later on?

Oh yes, definitely!

I have a beta version up and running and downloadable from 4eyes!

I use a windows machine so I cannot test it.....

This is the progress window. It also appears to not be exporting images as well.

Hope you can resolve this!

I made a few edits, new version here:

It works! Is a great & beautiful tool! THANK YOU & greatings from Vienna!
[MacOS High Sierra 10.13.5]

Are you still supporting this? FF7 using OSX 10.14.5 has multiple issues, can't get it to work, it renders, but does not take a sweep value from one of my filters. I'm using 2.0b1.

I would love to know when any new progress happens on this great resource. As primarily an animator, I know this will be a great tool. Hope you can find the time and happy to donate.
Can someone tell me how to access filters for the batch run? I have the directory specified in the Location of Filter Library (FF Librarian 8/Library/Library) but no Presets appear in the Filter Settings list. Thanks for the help.

Hmm, I don't have a Filter Forge directory in my Application Support folder. I found all of my ffxml files in the FF Librarian 8/Library/Library folder, since I have the librarian installed. When I point FFBatchMaster to that folder, no presets appear in the Preset selection box.
Any other thoughts? Would love to be able to try this out.

OK, started to move from Swift 3 to Swift 4.2 and reorganize some of the filter chain code (which seems to be the issue)

That's very good news. Thanks for your efforts.

Oh crap!
Fixing! for some reason Mac OS X server insists on reinstalling the old PHP automatically and I haven't figured out how to stop that from happening.

Awesome, it's working. Appreciate you taking the time to fix and respond.

I will get around to giving this a go at some point in the near future, will let you know how it goes!

Thanks again.

@thereisone: Yes - the issue is in the new one and the fact that the code was autoported from Objective-C to Swift. I have found a few strange things that surfaced in Swift 4.2.

Great - my plan is to make 2.0 even more awesome, lol. I'm working on it little now and then, lots of code to "clean up" from the bad translation done.

Sweep now works in the FFBM 2.0

Oh sweet! Thank you for the upd ate. Here are a few things I noticed that I thought I'd just report:

- The JPEG slider when se t to supposedly 100, it seems to output 0 quality JPEG images. (setting it to 99 quality seems to give the best).

- 2.0b4 links to beta 3?

Just set up FFBM 2.0b4 on High Sierra with all the correct paths, then clicked Batch and the program crashed - no error log generated that I can see. My input image file was 50 MB - might that have been the problem? Will try again with a smaller file...

Will look in to it though!

OK, I could make it happen, sp I have something to work with.

This time I loaded a filter - futurism, then enabled all three parameters using the default values. Crashed again (summary below). Let me know if there is anything you want me to test and thanks for your efforts.

FFBM 2.0b5

I can't get FFBM 2.0b5 to run. I have a filter in My Filters (Rotate Madness 3) that I tried in FF7, then FF8. Here are 2 logs for FF8. Note that one of the int sliders does have a range 1-7 in the FF8 filter I've attached. The only thing I tried to do was sweep Amount 0.0-0.1 in Preset 15 of Rotate Madness 3.
