Cannot render with updated exporter

[organic]

I updated the exporter using the 'Update exporter' button, and now I have no file output panel and cannot render.

The console reports this:-

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/organic/applications/VRay-Blender/install/linux/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 tried updating Blender, but the build failed.

scons: building terminated because of errors.

Also tried downloading the exporter directly from github, but the result is the same.

A much older version from graphicall works normally, though is obviously much older (2.5. I also get a working version if I copy the /scripts/startup/vb25 from the working older build to the non functional 2.59 build.

Suggestions ? Is it an error with the exporter or something else ?

Blender 2.59.0
Ubuntu 11.04 64bit

2.59 O_o =)
Use project's builds: https://github.com/bdancer/vb25/downloads

Re: Cannot render with updated exporter

Yep. It was a late 2.59 build though

I have a working build using svn blender and the exporter, though without the patch.

I would use a build from the page you linked, but there isn't a linux version there. I guess I can live without the patched version for a while.

Re: Cannot render with updated exporter

ok success.

Threw everything out again and started from scratch again. I dunno, maybe I missed a step.

Anyway, I have uploaded the build for anyone else who wants to test it. For Ubuntu 11.04 64 bit, Blender 2.61.4 -r 43785:-

I'll try to get it uploaded to graphicall in the next few days as I don't recall seeing a recent linux build there.

Thanks once again

Hi organic,

Your build doesn't work for me, I use Linux Mint 11, which is similar to Ubuntu 11.04, dependencies error:

./blender: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.53: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
