... it links to 2.31 not 2.31a. It's in the directory with the other 2.31a's it's just the links wrong.

Could you give us a bit more info Sutabi as to what version of Linux you are using, is it patched up to date? What video card are you using if it's Radeon you'll get no sympathy from me :wink: I use the Linux version everyday and haven't had a single problem with it crashing on me with V2.30. I use ...

I've got an old Pentium2 that's running Redhat6.1, BeOS and Win98..... The common application between them all is Blender. I don't use the machine that much any more but I still get it out and have a play every now and again. I think it's a real shame BeOS bit the bullet, I quite liked the rather br...

I'd like to keep the gestures as I use a pen and tablet 99% of the time. I find these to be really handy, otherwise I agree with Monkeyboi.

I'm not knocking it's abilities... I'm just saying that blenders current renderer would need a complete re-write to be able to make use of these features. By all means get stuck in and start codeing!!!

Sedgetone

Why ????

For digital film and grading it's fantastic, but to try and shoe-horn it into Blender's renderer as it stands would be a complete waste of time.

Python 2.0.1 installer for Windoze and a linux tar.gz too. Also a little "how to" configure the python path as it seems to always catch people out.

Mmmmm, think we're a long way off integrating anything like this. Maybe Povray or other raytracer developers will pick it up. God bless George Lucas for trying to kick start digital cinema.

http://freshmeat.net/projects/python3ds/ python3ds is a small set of Python routines for reading 3ds archives. It features support for animations, textures, and collision detection, and it is compatible with pyopengl and pygame. Haven't dabbled with it yet... but could be very interesting for I/O! ...

I find it rather clumsy with a mouse, put with a pen & tablet is great. That's how I work with it anyway; I treat the pen as if it's a two button mouse.

IMHO I think the sponsors should be on the opening page of the site. Most people don't try to hunt down who's sponsoring a project, so the two little buttons are a waste of time (Wow adverts on this link, better check them out!!!). By moving them to the front page it'll make more of an impression to...

Did you try it with the -w switch as it works dine on my 6.5.7f, 6.5.9 and 6.5.17 boxes?

Hi, If it is my ( :oops: ) " povanim", this script is compatible with all nt and posix systems and you don't need python's extended libs just the blender's one. It is not an evolution of povexport but a new original script written from scratch. Well jms it's a great bit of work :!: I've not checked...

VL is great if your a Micro$oft abuser, what about the rest of us

IMHO, Povray is available for the majority of OS's and I believe is the best candidate: Windows, Mac OS/Mac OS X, i86 Linux and IRIX from the SGI's freeware website or CD's.
