3.0.14.0
DOWNLOADS
ALL PLATFORMS: http://www.indigorenderer.com/dist/expo ... 3.0.14.zip
NOTE: This exporter REQUIRES Blender version 2.58a
Changes in this release:
* Removed old ray_origin_nudge_distance
* Re-write default "/tmp\" output location on windows to point to real temp directory
* Improved error reporting; should now show up in info header rather than console only
* Allow setting custom scene export name in Output Panel:
-- "/path/to/export" will be treated as directory, "<BlendFile>.<SceneName>.<FrameNumber>.igs" will be created there
-- "/path/to/file.igs" will use exact filename
-- "/path/to/file-####.igs" will replace # marks with formatted frame number
* Change default splat filter to fastbox
* Skip exporting meshes with no faces or verts
* Fix support for external PIGM and IGM materials:
-- Only first .igm file in PIGM will be used
-- Only last material definition in .igm will be used
-- Selected material found in file will be displayed in material editor panel
* Changed release .zip layout so that it can be used with blender's "Install Addon" button in User Preferences
MANUAL INSTALLATION
Unzip the archive. Move the extracted indigo folder into your Blender addons folder.
You should end up with <blender scripts>/addons/indigo/
Run Blender 2.5, go into User Preferences/Addons, and find the Render section. Locate the Blendigo entry
and enable the addon by clicking the little checkbox on the right.
INSTALLATION VIA BLENDER
Run Blender 2.5, go into User Preferences/Addons. Click the "Install Addon" button and choose the blendigo-2.5-3.0.14.zip file. The addon will be installed and shown to you, ready for activation.
This method _should_ automatically replace any previous version. You can easily check the installed version in the Addons panel. After upgrading/replacing I would strongly recommend restarting blender.
HINTS
Save your User Settings now to make Blendigo activate every time you start Blender 2.5.
Non-windows users will have to also fill in the "Path to Indigo" setting in the "Indigo Render Engine Settings"
panel. (Windows does this automatically from the information provided by the installer). Note that you should
specify the actual Indigo binary file for this setting.
YOUR FEEDBACK IS ALWAYS APPRECIATED
As with the current efforts to get Indigo 3.0 as complete and user-friendly as possible,
please please keep reporting any issues you find with Blendigo - it is your feedback as
users and artists alone that push Blendigo forward into being the software that works for you.
