Hi, Are you sure they didn't mean they wanted to be able to render a single frame on more than one machine? For tile dispatch, what's needed is a way to specify the rendered tile on command line as well as a way to load render results per tile (or at least an easy way to recomposite the full

+1 while no single machine of mine (I have 8) can render a single frame of BBB, or even ED, (malloc returns 0), my hope is that if I could get the tile small enough, each would be able to render a portion, and then one could stitch them together. --Roger From: Martin Poirier

[Bf-committers] Modal Zoom issue

Hi all, In the latest SVN build, when you zoom it no longer releases after you let go of the mouse button. I set my zoom to Control + Alt + LMB. I can zoom just fine, but when I release the mouse button the zoom stays on, turning into a rotate if I let go of the alt key. I fixed this by

Some time ago I was struggeling with a compiler seqfault on WinXP, MinGW. Finally I found a combination of compilation switches and gcc version 4.4.1 (TDM-2 mingw32) which allowed me to compile on my laptop (no space for VC express or such) including ffmpeg. However since today: Linking

+1. This would be really good. Perhaps some of the issues are just that the operators currently in 2.5 are incomplete; I don't know. I do know that changing parameters for many of them causes them to behave in unintuitive ways. I think the Fracture operator shows best one of the limitations
