Attribute error: image_settings

[moustachio]

Hello,
I've just bought V-Ray, and when I try to launch the render in Blender (the custom build), I have this error on the terminal:

File "/Applications/3D/Blender/blender 2.5/blender Vray.app/Contents/MacOS/2.59/scripts/startup/vb25/ui/properties_render.py", line 145, in draw
    rd    = scene.render.image_settings
AttributeError: 'RenderSettings' object has no attribute 'image_settings'

I'm on OSX 10.6.8, the exporter is the last version (90e5766).
I didn't have any problem when I used the demo of V-Ray. Thanks for your help.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

This error is not about V-Ray. Just your exporter is slightly newer than build (build doesn't have such option group, but newer Blender SVN has).
You could use build without updating the exporter, could compile new build yourself, use some latest graphicall builds or wait until I compile new mac build.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Thanks for the answer.
I'll try to compile a new build then.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Ok I have succeeded in compiling a Blender Build, but not a custom VRay/Blender for the moment.
I've downloaded the patch and run the autobuild script in the terminal but it failed. Where do I have to put the patch?

Another question: I downloaded Git, and apprently the installation was succesfull, but I can't find it, it's not on /user/local and spotlight doesn't find it anywhere.
Are there any other on Mac that could help me? Thanks.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Here is the patching info: https://github.com/bdancer/vb25-patch/wiki/compilation
Git will be avaialbe in terminal - "git" command.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

The problem is I'm on a Mac. The informations on this page are available for windows, Linux and ubuntu, unless there's a typo? Thanks for your help.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Patching process is the same on all platforms.

You need to apply patch with the "patch" tool:

cd <blender-source-root>
patch -Np0 -i /path/to/vb25-patch/patch/vb25.patch

and copy "exporter" directory:

cp -Rf /path/to/vb25-patch/patch/exporter source/blender/

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

New build uploaded.
Build script also updated, but documentation is not.
If you want to try new build system clone vb25-patch repository with:

git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/bdancer/vb25-patch.git

Then use a command like (which will download all other sources and lib and build vrayblender):

python vb25-patch/build.py --upblender

This command show all available option (some of them could be not working

python vb25-patch/build.py --help

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Thanks for all the informations, and for the new OSX build. I've downloaded yours, I'll try to build one later.
Unfortunately now, VRay doesn't recognise my license, the installation is a PITA, I contacted chaosgroup.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Hi Bdancer,
one more time I tried to compile a new Blender VRay build, but I still have troubles to make it.
When I use the command

python vb25-patch/build.py --upblender=on

it downloads everything but then, for the build I have this message:

Checked out revision 43429.
Export complete.
Exporting sources...
svn: Destination directory exists, and will not be overwritten unless forced
svn: Can't create directory 'blender': File exists
Getting "lib" data...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "vb25-patch/build.py", line 132, in <module>
    builder.build()
  File "/Users/bupla/blender build/vb25-patch/builder/builder.py", line 483, in build
  File "/Users/bupla/blender build/vb25-patch/builder/builder.py", line 240, in update_sources
AttributeError: MacBuilder instance has no attribute 'sources'

So I tried the other way to apply the patch manually with

cd <blender-source-root>
patch -Np0 -i /path/to/vb25-patch/patch/vb25.patch

but I have this error message:

par69-3-82-224-162-128:blender bupla$ patch -Np0 -i /path/to/vb25-patch/patch/vb25.patch
patch: **** Can't open patch file /path/to/vb25-patch/patch/vb25.patch : No such file or directory

The file vb25.patch is here though in my directory usr/blender build /blender/vb25-patch/patch.
Do I have to put the directory vb25-patch in another place?

Thanks for all.

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Try doing this in a fresh new directory.
Create new dir like "vrayblender-build" then

cd vrayblender-build
git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/bdancer/vb25-patch.git
python vb25-patch/build.py

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Thanks for taking the time answer,
I've created a new directory, 3 directories are created in this one: blender, blender-svn, vb25-patch. But I still have the same error in the terminal:

Export complete.
Exporting sources...
svn: Destination directory exists, and will not be overwritten unless forced
svn: Can't create directory 'blender': File exists
Getting "lib" data...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "vb25-patch/build.py", line 132, in <module>
    builder.build()
  File "/Users/bupla/vrayblender-build/vb25-patch/builder/builder.py", line 488, in build
    self.update_sources()
  File "/Users/bupla/vrayblender-build/vb25-patch/builder/builder.py", line 240, in update_sources
    os.chdir(self.sources)
AttributeError: MacBuilder instance has no attribute 'sources'

I may be wrong, but the error is that there is no attribute "sources", and when I open the directories vrayblender-build/blender or vrayblender-build/blender-svn, there is a subdirectory called "source", could it be a typo or is it irrelevant?

Thanks for your help

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Hm, yep this a bug. Fixed )

Re: Attribute error: image_settings

Thanks for this one!
I tried again, but now I have a full list of errors, when it's compiling "nla.c" apparently. I've attached the error messages in the zip.

I'm sorry to bother you again.

Looks like you have an incomplete SDK - try reinstalling Xcode http://developer.apple.com/technologies/tools/
