I have discovered the ED project by visiting the blender website and i can tell this is a great idea to support. I found out all the files and final renders are also available for free to download on a dedicated site. So i wonder what is the difference betwen the downlodables files and the DVD version?
I can see that the files don’t come up with any tutorials nor comments, so i wonder if the DVD version does?
I also noticed after the download that some files do have extensions like .blend1, .blend2…blend5. Does this mean Blender uses differents file formats?
I’m having a wee bit of trouble understanding what your asking, but I’ll give this a shot.
If you mean, is there a difference between the stuff on the DVD and the stuff on the website, then the answer is no (afaik). The DVD just a nice way to support the project, and in the meantime get yourself a nifty little DVD cover and menu for the movie, but as far as the actual content, I don’t think there’s a difference.
And, as far as the .blend extensions go, when you make a blend file, another one is created, with extension .blend1. I think that formats like that are just backups (again, afaik).
Is there a better forum for this question? It doesn’t relate specifically to modeling, composition, animation, etc. Atleast point the quy in the right direction.
