Quite pity it is not in this 2.45, I was hoping it would be finally included as some kind of surpprice. So wait for Christmass or grab SVN at http://www.graphicall.org/builds/index.php).

Thank to all coders!!! No immediate “Wishes for post 2.4x version” thread please … :-/

beautiful splash image, and thanks for every coding contributor!

#3

that skinning thing is awesome :evilgrin:

#4

awesome…congrats blender team.

#5

I can’t manage to ue the heat thingie :frowning: It doesn’t show up as an option…

Note: Just saw the “left in for next” part…

#6

the heat thing is available only when u r in weight mode and the bone is selected, then press w and choose it from two options.
before going to weight paint model skeleton should be in pose mode. hope it helps:)

Once again, those features are not in 2.45, you will need to use SVN for that. 2.45 is identical to 2.44 + bug fixes only!

Btw, if you post any kind of nudity, there must be a warning in the topic - which you cannot do because you’re not the author of this thread --> no nudity.

#9

Fixed vector blur…yeepee! :slight_smile:

#10

Anyone else having trouble getting the latest from the SVN? I’ve cleaned, deleted, all that fun stuff, and yet every time I update and build, the splash is 2.44 and the about states 2.44.3.

(I’m running the particle code rewrite. I should try building without that…)

Any thoughts would be appreciated. :slight_smile:

Yep, that was it. Removed the Particle build, and 2.45 is here! SWEET! :smiley: Now I’m going to miss my particles, though. :frowning:

#11

goodguy20k: It is possible that the particle branch hasn’t merged recent changes to the main branch to it yet. You might want to check out the main branch as well.

#12

That is what my guess is as well. Even though the revisions match up, branch to trunk, and vice versa… Oh well, this just got released! I can wait until things get matched up. :wink: Thanks, though!

You need to install OpenAL for your distribution.

#15

Do what I do and run two different builds…
