Hi there :) Please can someone bring me up to speed?

General Forums Blender and CG Discussions

The last time I have used blender was around version two I think?
Could someone please tell me what version of the experimental release I need to install so I can use one of the free ray tracers?
If I could render in 3D Delight or PovRay, I would prefer to switch back to blender again. Tutorial links or any how-to’s would help me a lot!

I’m using XP and am interested in generating photorealistic scenes

Thanks everyone :)))

Yable (and hence yafray) waks like charm with any Blender version from 2.23 upwards
