Are you planning to model a new VS ship and call it Shepherd? (Loki is already in the FreeSpace universe...)

Re: Back in *nix land
Have been working on a few models that TBeholder or was it gonzo posted a while back that and tiring to get a good render of one of Howard Day's ships(got it from the example files in xNormal) the commerce centre and space station are also his he uses an interesting cube map in that example so it's an exercise in learning blender's render pipeline,he also does a neat thing with the engine exhaust that I haven't figured out yet I will post my attempt and the xNormal render later.CLoneWolf wrote:Long live the ever-evolving Tuxland!

Re: Back in *nix land
I have to say that I like Linux considerably more than Windows. It's also gotten much more easier to use, with Ubuntu distributions being my favourite.
Linux for me is more reliable and advanced, I remember when Windows would crash all the time, it was so frustrating, now crashes are a thing of the past.

Re: Back in *nix land
My first Linux distro was Fedora Core 3 in other words before Ubuntu still haven't built VS on this install yet will be doing that shortly.As to ease of use it depends on the the desktop that is installed just don't like Unity or Gnome 3 so using Mate which is Gnome 2 fork really like it's embedded terminal in the file browser.

You've got cmake options to disable them anyway if you have the dev files installed.loki1950 wrote:Well building VS was a doodle but since I did not the Ogre dev and ffmempeg dev files installed it built without mesher and ffmempeg support those packages now on board so will do a second build

Re: Back in *nix land
Yeah I didn't realize those scenes had so many verticies, I will probably split my blend's to multiple layers next time.
Also, I'm looking to upgrade from Ubuntu precise, I didn't like it one bit.

Re: Back in *nix land
Got CUDA support followed the guide on the nvidia doc site for "Getting started with CUDA on Linux" has a section for most of the popular distros being on fedora it was SELinux that borked the install so I turned of till a targeted policy is released.After installing all the pkgs blender was seeing the compute device but the CUDA server was not runnig so no joy but after disabling SELinux and rebooting Bingo it worked
