Thanks jimstar for your work

If you will get some crashes - post here please description, I will try to reproduce and fix it at monday, after will get into office (here are the weekends started already, so I'm not able to check the reports right now).

Thank you, jimstar! Everything is working.
Libglew.1.6 received duplicate and rename 1.8

Try

Code: Select all

octane_blender_1.20.2-2.3.run --tar xf

Yep, much appreciated, thanks.

LiveDB is working very well here, no crashes

When i doubleclick on a materials name i can enter a new name, but even if i don't change the name or just cancel the action by clicking somewhere else, blender crashes.

It seems like textfiles are not allowed as forum attachement. If you need the console output, i could upload it somewhere.

Renaming is not implied to work at the time, it was not promoted in version description. It is just stub for future features (local database).

EDIT: Disregard this, i didn't even try to use ESC.

I don't really follow the win-betas so just a question: Will it be possible (in future releases) to assign a downloaded material to the "selected" material of the object? Currently it just replaces the top material (material index 1, i think).

MAybe add this to the manual. If OctaneServer fails to start because oct files are not to be found type this "sudo cp /usr/lib64/*oct* /usr/lib/" In my distro (DreamStudio) this must be done!

PS. Is this OctBlend baby A LOT faster than the PC version or is it just my idea? Haven't benchmarked it yet, it's just a first impression I got

Thanks JimStar,

I haven't been able to test it yet because of the issues found by others above. Fedora doesn't set up sudo by default like ubuntu, so I don't use it. I was able to untar the files like matej and that worked fine. But I also get the libGlew error:

Code: Select all

./blender: error while loading shared libraries: libGLEW.so.1.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

1.6 is just too old for Fedora 19 and is no longer in the repository, i'm currently running 1.9. Are you going to do a static compile anytime soon?

[mib2berlin]

Hi grimm, you could try to make a symlink libGLEW.so.1.6 to 1.9.
I have the same problem on Opensuse 12.3/64 with 1.9 but symlink work.

Cheers, mib.
