line boil / hand-drawn jitter FREE plugin for Resolve

tl;dr: boil plugin for davinci resolve free and open-source

hey. these last few months i tried to search for a "boil" plugin for davinci resolve, but only found after effects ones.

after rebuilding similar Fusion node stacks a bunch of times, I ended up making a small OFX plugin (Boilify) and figured I’d share it here in case it’s useful to anyone else. fully open-source and free.

you can control:

• Strength (px)
• Size (noise scale)
• Speed
• Boil FPS (frame-hold rate)
• Complexity (octaves)
• Noise type (Smooth / Ridged)
• Seed
• Animate on/off

If you try it, I’d love notes / bug reports on:

1. do the defaults feel sane for “drop it on and it works” (especially Strength)?
2. any obvious artifacts on edges/text/fine line art (shimmer, tearing, ringing)?
3. any missing control you’d expect for this look (edge handling, clamp, blur-before-displace, etc.)?

useful context if you report issues: Resolve version (free/Studio), timeline FPS, resolution, and whether you’re stacking NR/grain/sharpen. :P
