Not bad!  What version Blender got ported ?  The archive file just says blender.lha .. might be better to put a version number in :-)

Kind of sad when you think about this. Blender on Amiga, rendering stuff slower than the rest of the world and regarding AOS 4, MOS already peed on this target.

Is Bender on AROS? That would be something worth talking about. Fast modern hardware.

By the way, Blender has a game engine. This could mean moden games on os4.

The more Media apps the better!!!!

Seeing as MorphOS hardware is also slower than the rest of the world, I'm guessing that "being first" the only point to that you see to the MOS port. That, is really sad.

Having Blender running on OS4 is great news. There are people who have been looking forward to this.

Ooo, trolling! I can do this, too!

It took OS4 years to even being able to run it. That, is really sad.

No, really it is quite sad in fact. But sure it's great OS4 is finally able to enjoy some of the things rest of us have enjoyed for years...

BTW When will OS4 get proper 3D drivers? (something not half the performance of say MorphOS).







How did I do?

Now, now. Let's not have another red/blue fight, especially around a blender, it might all go purple :lol:

And besides, blender on my 64-bit quad core linux box (which to address Piru's latter point, is using nVidias own OpenGL 3.0 compliant drivers) renders it useless on all your MOS/OS4 boxes...

*groan*

Seriously though, I thought we'd left the days when people in either camp actually gave a hoot what the other was doing?

I tell a lie. They're OpenGL 3.2 compliant, apparently...

Not that it matters since all I've managed to render in blender are a few monkey heads :lol:
