It is great news! Thank you!

However new Blender doesn't work because I don't have jfif.library. I can't find this library. Heeeeeelp me, please...

afaik, isn't the jfif.library a part of MorphOS 1.5? i suppose, i have read this somewhere already...

bye, MarK.

jfif.library? hmmm normally I've compiled with static libraries, not dynamic ones.
I will check that...

MarK:
You're right probably. Bledner 2.42a only for MorphOS 1.5 - it is terrible. :( I'm crying...

Yomgui:
Is ifif.library absolutely necessary for Bledner 2.42a? Users MOS 1.4.5 don't have this library. We are sad... :(

... or just dump the .rodata section of blender, there is the list of needed libraries

Cool work , Yomgui! (though I don't have mos1.5...)
Pygame would be really cool for mos, too ;)
& maybe (if possible) a standalone "blender-game-player" ...
cheers

Hope we will get Blender "Mortal Edition" soon

I've just uploaded a new build (same filename).
Normally libraries jfif/png/.. are not needed now.

But I've just seen that a crash may happen when you leave Blender.

If you've the same issue, please report me that.

Thanks,
Guillaume

I downloaded, and tried this version. Now everything is ok.

Blender 2.42a works on MorphOS 1.4.5... It is amazing. :) Thank you! You are the best!

no crash here... but I just did a quick start, fiddle, stop
thing.

what are the chances of seeing the Verse version of blender?
(is the Verse version still being developed?)

I have the problem in Blender 2.42a. Sometimes I see black rectangle in 3D window. For example if I load "dolphin.blend" (from test237) archive), this rectangle will be visible. I noticed that if I turn off option "Mini Axis" ("View & Controls"), black rectangle will disappear. Black rectangle is visible only if I set view from camera (key '0' on numeric keyboard). In Blender 2.41 for MorphOS I didn't see this rectangle...

I like mini axis and I want it. :) Help me, please...

Sorry for my English. I can't write better now. I still learn this language. :)

Known bug, as written in MorphOS_changes.txt

Another workaround is to show the camera name:
Select the camera object (in 3D view for example), press F9 (many times possible) to have the camera properties, then in "Show:" enable "Name" button.

Normally, the code use a glRectf() function to draw a black rectangle but only the frame.... here the rect is filled.
But not always (if the workarounds are done).

Very strange. I think that Kiero is the man to solve this issue.

Kiero, if you read us...

"Another workaround is to show the camera name: Select the camera object (in 3D view for example), press F9 (many times possible) to have the camera properties, then in "Show:" enable "Name" button."

It really works! Black rectangle disappeared and I see Mini Axis. Thanks for temporary solution. :)


"Normally, the code use a glRectf() function to draw a black rectangle but only the frame.... here the rect is filled. But not always (if the workarounds are done)."

It is strange... If you knew in which place of the source is drawn this ractangle, you would replace glRect to 4 x glLine (GL_LINE). :) Only temporarily and only in version for MorphOS. I know - it isn't pretty way. But maybe... What do you think? :) Is it possible?

Or a better one: using an array of 4 gVertex

"Or a better one: using an array of 4 gVertex"

You're right. :) 4 glVertex and GL_LINE_STRIP is better way. :)

LINE_LOOP:)

Kiero: it was not really the answer that I wait for....
About the bug now? Do you think that something is wrong with glRect on TGL?

yomgui: that was a reply for GL_LINE_STRIP post (which wouldn't close the loop). need to get home to check what might be wrong with the code.

and about the glRect. no, there is nothing wrong with it. it's just simple wrapper for 4 other calls. what might be wrong is shape outline drawing, but that worked iirc. can't tell more now.
