1.How to Install

For the Python Version:

• Install python (3.10+ recommended) in your system
• Download the Datamosher-Pro python version and extract the zip file, then do the setup:

Automatic setup:

• Open the folder and run "Setup.py" file (either in IDLE mode or launcher mode). If you are a total beginner then see this tutorial of how to open a python file
• After running Setup.py, a message will pop up in the window for module download, enter 'y' and let the modules be downloaded automatically
• After installation of modules it will ask to download ffglitch, enter 'y' again and wait for the file to download and extract.
• It will then check the packages ffgac and ffedit which is downloaded in the ffglitch folder, you can also check the packages/programs in the FFglitch folder.
• After all this installation, you can run "Datamosher Pro.py" file and enjoy experimenting. A successful setup will look like this:

Manual Setup:

If you are facing some issues while doing the automatic setup, then do the manual setup instead:

• install modules via pip one by one (using 'pip install module_name' in cmd)
• Dependencies/required modules are:
  • tkinter
  • customtkinter
  • pillow
  • rangeslider
  • imageio
  • imageio-ffmpeg
  • numpy
  • requests
• Download FFglitch from https://github.com/Akascape/FFglitch-0.9.3-executables and extract it. Paste the ffgac and ffedit files inside the FFglitch folder of Datamosher-Pro and you are done.

For Windows version:

• After purchasing you can download the direct executable. Just extract that and run "Datamosher-Pro.exe".

(Ignore if any windows smart screen message of "opening an exe" pops up, no need to worry because everything is packed only with pyinstaller)

That's all for installation, not a big deal.
