If you need more info from ciggraph just type "siggraph pdf" in google

You are plan to add to Blender VEE's features like:
Includes surface drag and -flow dynamics
Python programmable behaviour
Very fast simulation

I found good particle simulator http://www.tml.tkk.fi/~tilmonen/vee/effects.html . It might be helpfull in writing blender's particles. And might be developers will think about hardware particle rendering like in Maya. Just look trough image gallery and feature list. ----------------------- And agai...

Blender already have one method to get useful info for exporting particles. But in most cases getParticlesLoc(time) not enough. I am propose to add new methods: + Effect.getParticlesAge(time) - just like getParticlesLoc but returns particle age as float (0 is unborned and 1 is dead) Useful in partic...

Problem solved by updating system and rebuilding all blender's dependences from empty tree.
Thanks for all! I am happy now!

I made renderman exporter for my self and call it ribber. This exporter doesn't depend from any particular renderer. But curently tested only on linux. You can read more on aqsis forum under Blender topic.
If you need something, just do it for yourself - that is unix way!

I tried blender-2.41-linux-glibc232-py24-i386-static. Same results.
But my system still not updated.

I tried to switch video driver to vesa and opengl to xorg-x11. Same results.
Changing window mananger do nothing to.
Seems bug in library dependences.
Tommorow I'll try to update my system. Might be this helps

And one thing. Blender 2.3x works as well on my gentoo box.

Then CPU load slowly increase till Blender gets 100% of CPU. After saving and restoring Blener takes 0.3% CPU again. When I start pl...

For me more interesting compositing/post-production process. How they did it? Thay wrote new sequencer plugins? If yes, can I get it?
