|
|
This file is to help you get started using the source and will hopefully
|
|
answer most questions.

We are in the process of moving things over to automake/autoconf
|
|
The old makefiles are still in place and will work.
|
|
If you want to get a working blender skip down to the next section
|
|
and use this readme as a guide.
|
|
|
|
If you want to play with the new autoconf environment take a look at
|
|
doc/autoconfig.txt

--Notes on compiling mxTextTools----------------------------------------------
|
|
To get the latest version to compile on my machine I had to
|
|
edit mxSetup.py and remove /usr/include from INCLPATH for it to build
|
|
properly.
|
|
(after doing this you need to edit blender/source/Makefile and
|
|
fix the pointer to it I'm still working on automating this)
|
|
|
|
--------------Basic Makefile TIPS---------------------------------------
|
|
Assuming you are using tcsh/csh do the following before compiling.
|
|
#Set this to wherever you have extracted the source.
|
|
setenv NANBLENDERHOME `pwd`
|
|
setenv MAKEFLAGS "-w -I$NANBLENDERHOME/source"
|
|
|
|
Or for bash/sh do this:
|
|
NANBLENDERHOME=`pwd`
|
|
export NANBLENDERHOME
|
|
MAKEFLAGS="-w -I$NANBLENDERHOME/source"
|
|
export MAKEFLAGS
|
|
|
|
Then edit source/nan_definitions.mk to fit you're environment.
|
|
(You'll want to change things like NAN_OPENSSL,NAN_JPEG, NAN_PNG etc..
|
|
to point to where you have it installed)
|
|
|
|
If you tried to just have a go at making stuff you might wind up with
|
|
an empty file /tmp/.nanguess
|
|
You need to remove the empty file and it will get created automatically
|
|
by $NANBLENDERHOME/source/tools/guess/guessconfig after you have
|
|
setup the NANBLENDERHOME variable.
|
|
|
|
After that cd $NANBLENDERHOME/intern
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
cd $NANBLENDERHOME/source/ode
|
|
Look at the README_BLENDER and follow instructions
|
|
|
|
Then cd $NANBLENDERHOME/source
|
|
make
|
|
|
|

----------------------Mac OSX TIPS--------------------------------------
|
|
Now before you go to the source directory, make sure you have installed the
|
|
external libraries that Blender depends upon. Here is a description of the
|
|
things you need.
|
|
|
|
FINK:
|
|
Use fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net/) to install the following libraries that
|
|
Blender depends on:
|
|
1. openssl (fink install openssl)
|
|
2. jpeg (fink install jpeg)
|
|
3. png (fink install png)
|
|
|
|
PYTHON:
|
|
Mac OSX 10.2 (Jaguar) now comes with Python (2.2.1) pre-installed. This is fine
|
|
for producing the "frozen" Python code found in the intern directory. However,
|
|
the installation does not contain the python library to link against (at least
|
|
I could not find it). You could use fink to install Python but that Python
|
|
installation depends on X being installed and that is a large installation.
|
|
|
|
If you prefer the easy way: download Python 2.2.2 from http://www.python.org.
|
|
Follow the instructions to in the documentation to install it on your box. If
|
|
you run OSX 10.2 it should install just fine. Basically a configure and a
|
|
"make" will do the job. The result is a Python library that should be copied to
|
|
the library tree together with the associated header files.
|
|
|
|
Create the following directories:
|
|
$NANBLENDERHOME/lib/darwin-6.1-powerpc/python/include/python2.2
|
|
$NANBLENDERHOME/lib/darwin-6.1-powerpc/python/lib/python2.2/config
|
|
Now copy the include files and the libpython2.2.a library to those locations.
|
|
|
|
FMOD:
|
|
Download FMOD from http://www.fmod.org/ and unpack with StuffIt Expander. The
|
|
archive contains header files and a library. Copy those to these directories
|
|
(that you need to create first):
|
|
$NANBLENDERHOME/lib/darwin-6.1-powerpc/fmod/include
|
|
$NANBLENDERHOME/lib/darwin-6.1-powerpc/fmod/lib
|
|
|
|
RANLIB:
|
|
Although the make files run ranlib on the libraries built, the gcc linker
|
|
complains about ranlib not being run. Until there is a solution, you will need
|
|
to run ranlib by hand once in a while when the make breaks. Luckily, the error
|
|
message lists the full path of the file to run ranlib on... Anybody out there
|
|
with a real solution? I guess the problem arises from copying the files from
|
|
one location to the other...
|
|
|
|
Now wait, don't type make yet! You'll have to edit a config file of ODE first.
|
|
go to $NANBLENDERHOME/source/ode/config and edit the file "user-settings" so
|
|
that platform is equal to osx (PLATFORM=osx).
|
|
|
|
Success!
