V-Ray/Blender Installation Ubuntu 12.04

[paulj]

Hi!

I am trying to get V-ray and Blender working in Ubuntu 12.04.
I used Blender 2.67b. Copied and renamed the vb25 and put in the /sripts/startup folder.
Also installed vray-demo-22001-maya2011-linux-x64 and the maya2012 version, both don't seem to work

I haven't tried to set the path to the vray executable manually, since I am not shure which file that is.
I have tried to make a system link to the usr/bin/ according to the FAQ (Errors)

In the Terminal i get this message:

V-Ray/Blender: Creating directory "/tmp/vrayblender_paul"... done
V-Ray/Blender: Writing scene...
V-Ray/Blender: Writing meshes...

Hi! It's not noobish at all, here viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1202 is the same error... very strange, I'll check this.

Could you try project's custom build from here? http://cgdo.ru/vrayblender
