I also agree, …they are coding new features faster then we can learn them!:evilgrin:

Hey guys,
i’ve just downloaded the Win32 bit version of 2.48 and am missing the scrips.
After installing twice, still only yafray stuff in the scrips … are all the python scripts missing or do i have a bad download?

Edit! – never mind … rebooting/re-installing did the trick :slight_smile:

13

Someone sculpt me a CG heart cos my real one’s stopped beating.

Over the top? I don’t think so, this is amazing…Thank you so much.

14

Downloaded. But when I was intalling, I got lots of error. 1st Error Image is this

and there were lots of eror?
My Blender 237a, 242a, 246, and 247 all are working fine. I have already instlaled Python 2.5

15

YEAH! Finally an official release with GLSL, and even better, SOFTBODY!!! Thanks so much to Erwin and Ben!!!
Kkrawal: Just extract the zip.

Hey Everyone,

I posted the problem a little too late it seems by just a few hours.  The node based GLSL shading is not working but it did work in the Apricot Blender 2.47.  Don't know why and the Backface Culling button is missing.  I hope this gets fixed.  Here is my post showing the problem.

Good job coders!!
pats everyone on the head and/or gives everyone a handshake
I like the grease pencil!!

maybe blender was open / the codec was being used at the time of install? (try a fresh restart in xp )

18

Is this
http://www.blender.org/uploads/pics/splash.png is rendered in Blender Internal?
how its so clear? please tell me the settings?

19

No it is not blender internal.:stuck_out_tongue: I read on the blog somewhere in the corner down the bottom, Ton prefers to render all the promotion stuff in Maya, model it all in 3dMax, just to entice us fools;)
The force is strong on the dark side

Great news.
However… downloaded the ZIP archive, extracted it, double-click blender.exe and I get:
“The application failed to initialze properly (0xc0150002). Click OK to terminate”
I’m running on XP. No issue with 2.47 Anyone else get this? Do I need some other MS dlls or so?
