Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
‘import site’ failed; use -v for traceback

everything works fine from this ibook. Short of a few scripts still out of order. And Ton making the image load super slow now.

interesting

since the new release should handle millions of colors but the tuhopuu build is the only one which does not give me the white screen effect with millions of colors!

Heh, I hav’t had Millions of colors on in a while. WOW! the colors and text is sooooo much richer ! Yeah but ALL! bLenders are bugy in millions, drat!

I get color in blender but it is just fuzy and staticy but still moveable.
Also try truning it into black and white and inverse ! weee crashy !

And this isn’t just limited to macs…

A lot of windowsers have found that they have to drop it down to 16-bit to get reasonable performance out of it

Heh…Doesnt work in OSX? Wow, thats a shocker…

Id kill for a usable OSX release. Its beset with such horrible bugs its not even practical. Dont even bother with all the workarounds and avoids, i dont want to have to dick around with a bunch of settings on my mac before loading a program, besides, it wont stay running longer then 10 minutes before it crashes anyway.

Huh? Blender beta and beyond has been fine for me in thounsands since forever. Hardly a crash for hours.

The only gripe I have is the uv editor. D@M Uv editor ! I need a better UV editor. Thats realy all I want.

Crashes only come from the tiny little tuhopuu bugs, and some opening stuff that is new in Ton’s BF 2.28 stuff.

enos what mac are you running. i never had problem to getblender running on any mac here on campus.

blender is a bit unstable when i open a new scene. or even open the makehuman file can crahs blender during startup time.

but otherwise it runs flawless and fast!

Its no suprise to me man. I have a bad habit of issues that only a very rare few experience. Running a dual 1ghz G4, 512 ram, geforce 4, 10.2.6

Ive always had insane amounts of trouble with blender in OSX. Whether its just instability or the issue where you cant click anything when its running maximized. Its just simply not practically usable, as i dont trust it not to bomb in the middle of something. And nothing over .25 will run on my PC stable, so ive been using 2.23 since i started.

Ouch ! Did you try to reinstall Jag ?
And the Tuhopuu builds start maximised but you have to resize it so it is away from the dock then it works as normal. Normal for meeee that is.

You are so missing out on the new features with just staying with 2.23
Like scrolling ! OY ! I hate going back to 2.23 and finding that the scroll does not work .

ibook 500mhz 312 ram. Works great here. I have even had Lightwave cinema, zbrush, and even Maya 4 ! Run on this thing at quite useable speed to, and that was back when I only had 64megs of ram, nothing else installed.

^v^

sigh who knows

what the hell is a tuhopuu build?

And im not about to reinstall my OS just to get blender working. Which i doubt it would. Its performed the same way since i got this mac.

Ive tried .25 .26 .27 and .28, ive tried some custom builds from that guy whos name i never remember (sorry) and none of them have worked worth a damn.

Tuhopuu is the experimental tree.

So your screwed. Drat… Oh well. Save 400$ and buy Zbrush.
Short of doeing tErminal hacks and trouble shooting the Unix code.
Thier is nothing else I can help ya at.
Last question : Are you running at Millions of colors? If so try thousands.

I know you might have already tried that. But it is all I know that could help.

Do other 3D apps work for you ?
Like: Breve, Chess, Zbrush, wings, lightwave, cinema, teddy, screen savers, 3D-OSX finder,

I have not had the pleasure of playing with Panther yet shock but I hear that it runs smoothly.

Did you test out blender builds while in 10.2.4 and lower.

Grasping at straws here…

fish ^v^ :< :smiley:
