Re: [Bf-committers] Current state of Blender's user experience

I'd also like to chime in on the icon heavy ui, I think it would probably be more trouble than it's worth. Blender is like vim and I use both vim and blender, but I agree with Fabien. The main disadvantage I see with icon heavy software is the issue I deal with a lot right now. hDPI support is

Re: [Bf-committers] Blender 2.8 and OpenGL version

HI guys I read this and the notes from a few of the more recent coder meetings and I had a few questions. I noticed that the new 3.2 renderer will break backwards compatibility with previous versions of the particle system. I have been doing some work with the node system in blender for a

[Bf-committers] getting blender shaders used to render a mesh

Howdy I read somewhere once that I could get the source code that blender uses to render a mesh from some of the python api inside blender. I've been looking around but misplaced that link. How do I get the source code for the shaders that blender is using to render mesh [x] Best, Owen

[Bf-committers] building blender

Howdy compiling blender from source today it seems to want to update to llvm 3.6 but of OSL doesn't build with llvm 3.6 I manually downgraded my own copies of llvm and clang to 3.5 but the install_deps.sh script pulls down 3.6 there's this long thread about it on github:

Hi Campbell I am having similar issues compiling on jessie testing. OSL fails to build complaining about C++11 errors. I use the build placing dependencies and their things in /opt/blender/deps/src I just tried this build about 2 minutes ago. http://pastebin.com/HEAw82Jw I can compile the

Re: [Bf-committers] The future of FBX and/or other formats in Blender

Would there be anyone against using the pixar USD format: http://graphics.pixar.com/usd/ After looking at it, it seems pretty robust, the format is open like what was said previously and best of all it looks like it can fit right on top of blender's in my opinion. So will this list continue to

Re: [Bf-committers] The future of FBX and/or other formats in Blender

@Brian That's definitely good news, I am sure there are more devs like you out there who could help get this done. I looked tat the opengl format but like @Juan said it's pretty opengl specific so would be pretty useless for things outside of opengl world. Does Ton or Campbell or anyone else have

Re: [Bf-committers] blender as ui for game engine

If others are willing to implement the plugin architecture I personally have no feelings towards, it misses the point that I was trying to push forward. I do not want blender to change or to start focusing on game developers, I know that's a fool's errand. What I want to do is very simple to

Re: [Bf-committers] Merging makehuman with blender

that's such a crazy story but not unlike what I was talking about in my make blender a ui for game engines thread. Have a small clean core built around C, let other programmers be able to access the core blender features. Not make blender into a game engine, make the core of blender; the c core

Guys I am not going to bring this to some secret discussion, I posted it on the public list so that everyone who does have an opinion could chime in. I am coming at this from a slightly different point of view. Blender is great at doing what it does, which is a modeling tool. I do not want to

Re: [Bf-committers] blender as ui for game engine

I think that gamekit link was posted before, I've run across it before but that still misses the point. It's an external tool that's duplicating a lot of the work that blender already does. It is a pretty nice piece of software though but that skill could be used to refactor the internals of

Re: [Bf-committers] blender as ui for game engine

Ton two exit functions, what what? What does that have to do with anything? Are you saying that if you run blender in headless mode without a UI you have to call one exit function and blender with UI needs a separate exit function to work properly? If so why is that the case? If not can you

Jacob that's usually where it all ends up, stalled. They are trying to write a java parser for the python code when in all actuality if the core of blender was reorganized a bit, there would be no need for these types of things. c is universal, blender is built on c and for ease of use the blender

Hi guys I initially spoke with ideasman on irc about 8-12 months ago about this idea and I wanted to message this list to see if I could get some support. A lot of small teams and single dev guys use blender as a major part of their asset creation pipeline for their 2d/ 3d games but then they

Did you compile and install all of Blender dependencies or you just ran this command after getting the code from github? If your having trouble you can use the file located here: cd [blender git location] ./blender/build_files/build_environment/install_deps.sh that will do a lot of the heavy
