BtoR / Neqsis ? Blenderman mods ?

Coding Python Support
1

can’t find BtoR anymore… the links are appearantly down now. :frowning:

…so, is there a way to mod Blenderman to work with Python 2.4 ?

laughs good luck with that! Uh, probably have to wait for the new release of Blender (coming soon!) for a (Maybe?) intergration or better exporter to RIB format.

Try this http://www.softanim.com/pixie/BlenderPixie.tar.gz

It’s based on Blenderman, but focussed on Pixie instead of PRMan, BMRT, 3DElight and Aqsis.

I’ve been thinking of copying it’s changes back into Blenderman or creating a hybrid of the two but I don’t have the time and will be unlikely to get that done within the next 8 months.

BtoR development continues apace, as far as I know, no links are down, can you post the link you’ve been trying here, in case it’s something I don’t know about.

Hi Paul,

Can you tell me which version of Python CGKit you use/is recommended with BToR, I haven’t had luck with it so far and “No module named cgkit” is the error I get with CGKit alpha 6.

I’ve yet to fix boost.python problems in SuSE to build a full CGKit alpha 7 and try that.

Disregard my last question, the Aqsis wiki BToR/Neqsus page says CGKit2.

Thanks for the replies everyone.

The link was dead yesterday… appears to be working now.

also, is BtoR able to export animations with motion blur ?

best,

JB

as this thread is about BtoR/Neqsus, i think this will fit in here quite well:

I got a problem trying to install the plugin. i tried it several times on my laptop as well as on a friends PC. Both times i failed on the part of installing pyprotocols. I know form another thread, that i have to use ez_setup.py to install it but everytime i try it, i get the error message “youve got an obsolete version of setuptools installed, please remove it entirely bla bblubb and so on”.
it seems as if i miss something but dont know what :confused:
would be great if somebody could help me with that !!
thanks in advance
