Worked for me on the latest Gimp v2.8.2.
Have fun using it.

Thank you for offering this bit of information. I've done a little research and found the 'plugin' here on 
Even so, it would have been nice if the creator of this tutorial would have mentioned/included it in the tutorials description. Instead this 'critical' piece of information was left for those reading the tutorial to figure it out on their own as I did.
