Hello everyone,
i am trying to get blender and gimp work together with a plugin “verse”. I’ve read similar threads before, but the connection fails always by me.
my os: windows xp sp 3
- install gimp 2.0
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gimp-win/gimp-2.0.5-i586-setup.zip?download - install uni-verse for windows
http://www.blender.org/fileadmin/verse/universe-setup-20070228.exe - install gimp-verse-plug-in
http://users.pandora.be/blendix/verse/release/verse-gimp-win-r6p1.zip - install pre-compiled blender with verse.exe (plug-in) in its folder
http://download.blender.org/demo/verse-blender/blender-verse-win-2005-10-12.zip
i describe my problems:
a) if I run verse-server from uni-verse, two gimp programms can interact with themselves, no matter whether they are on the same computer or not. BUT then blender cannot connect to this verse-server
b) if I run verse.exe from blender’s folder, then two blender programms can also interact with themselves, no matter whether they are on the same computer or not. BUT then gimp cannot connect to this blender-verse-server
with short words: gimp can only interact with gimp, blender can only interact with blender, but the connection between gimp and blender fails always.
what have i done wrong? has anyone connect them properly under windows?
I’d be appreciated if anyone could help.
thx
