Well, you're definitely onto something. Here's the output you asked for karl@linux:~/blender/bf-blender/blender> sh bootstrap :command not found :command not found :command not found echo **Error**: You must have 'autoconf' installed to. Download the appropriate package for your distribution, or get...

Thanks for the quick reply! OK, here goes.
Looking at /bin/sh through Konqueror's file properties options says that sh points to bash. It's executable and readable by user.

Does this help? (I'm guessing not...)

OK, I have to apologise in advance for the sheer simplicity of these errors I'm getting :oops: . I'm sure many people will call me stupid for this (rightly so), but I'm pretty new to Linux (never mind compiling on it...) and I need help. Right, here goes. I tried the two routes at compling that were...

Hiya guys. Sorry if my understanding of render engine terminology is a little dodgy - I'm still getting to grips with this stuff.... Whilst we're talking about ripping the renderer apart and putting it back together in interesting new ways, I think we might need to have a look at the sampler, see if...

Granted, it might look a bit fractured, but Elysiun does have one major thing going for it - people know about it. Whilst the techie Blender users (coders etc.) tend to hang out here, most of the artistic Blender users tend to hang around Elysiun. It's THE place for them, if you get my drift. I thin...

Wow! I wasn't expecting a reply that quickly!! Just one more reason why the Blender community is so great. Thanks very much guys, some very valuable information here indeed, greatly appreciated... I've started looking it through, and already I can begin to see how stuff is tying together... Once I f...

Hiya guys, Well, I've got a C++ book in one hand, an OpenGL book in the other, and a very large supply of coffee...that's right, I'm about to delve into Blender's source tree :D Or at least I was, until I noticed the sheer size of it... :( . So, to get to the point, where would everyone suggest to a...

*Tries the Ctrl-L trick*



Thanks Theeth!! Yeesh, I've been using Blender for nearly 3 years now, and I'm still learning...

Hiya mate, Yeah, Ctrl-L will do the trick, but there's another way which I've found: Press Shift-F1 in a 3D window, and a 'load' window will come up (a bit like the one you get when you go File -> Open). Note the two buttons at the bottom - 'Append' and 'Link'. Link will just link the object to your...

No problem mate. Anything to help a fellow Blenderhead.

I'm just not a great fan of one line answers, that's all

LethalSideParting

Just to clarify the point here for you, Curador 3... PRMan and 3Delight aren't opensource, but this doesn't really matter for Blender, because they're seperate programs. Blender doesn't need their source code to be able to use them, as it can easily ask them to render through the command line. All t...

Hiya TankCoder, Well done getting the beast compiled!! Re. your instructions: you couldn't host the .txt somewhere else or post a copy here in the forum, could you? I just tried accessing it, and Mysite.Iptic.com doesn't exist anymore :cry: , I seem to remember hearing something about this on elysiu...

povray is crap That's a bit harsh, isn't it? Take a look at: http://www.povray.org/community/hof/view/1/ http://www.povray.org/community/hof/view/2/ http://www.povray.org/community/hof/view/12/ and especially http://www.povray.org/community/hof/view/10/ Yes, it might be slow (it's a raytracer, what...

Yeah, ditto, apart from that it's a great site. I had that problem just now - I wanted to reply to this topic, but I when I clicked on reply it just asked me to sign in first, and then took me back tio the forum index!! :evil: Could we do something a bit like Elysiun, where if you're not logged in a...

Now that's a good idea :D It would certainly make modelling with sub-d's in Blender a hell of a lot easier. This sort of system already exists with surfaces, (try the set weight button and the number next to it), so certainly the idea is there...just not with sub-d's yet :? Here's a thought...Imagin...
