GSoC Freestyle Integration - Win 32

GSoC Freestyle Integration - Win 32

Here it finally is, the win32 build for the Freestyle integration GSoC project by mxcurioni!

To use, extract the .exe somewhere, open a cmd.exe and cd your way to where you extracted the binaries, ie: 'cd C:\freestyle\befree-win32' if you extracted to C:\freestyle. Then set the FREESTYLE_BLENDER_DIR as follows:

set FREESTYLE_BLENDER_DIR="C:\freestyle\befree-win32\.blender\scripts"

After that start blender: blender.exe and choose Freestyle as renderer in the render settings. A new panel in render settings appears, here you can choose different freestyle module to render with. Hit F12 and enjoy!

As always, the .exe is self-extracting (created with 7-zip) for good compression. It is safe :)

thanks a million,Nathan
it works fine on my system,I will continue to pay attention！
that's great stuff!

Mal

Thanks for the build!

Just a quick note...

Instead of...
set FREESTYLE_BLENDER_DIR="C:\freestyle\befree-win32\.blender\scripts"

I had to remove the quotes ( " ) at either end
set FREESTYLE_BLENDER_DIR=C:\freestyle\befree-win32\.blender\scripts

It's worth setting up a blender.bat file, which sets these up for you.

Thanks!

BTW, I think you can also set the environment variable by
- going to Control Panel
- go to System
- on the Advanced tab, click on Environment Variables

You'd better not set it permanently, as it is currently a workaround. At least I see that the variable will be eventually faded out.

Ronin

Thank again for the build Nathan.

Thanks for your hard work

on winXP where to put the .bmp textures (freesyte2.2data dir) for say "stroke_texture.py" "washbrushAlpha.bmp"?

its not working here either , i see there are 2 style folders do i need to set the dir under the freestyle tap in the render options window? better show us the text of the bat that needs to be running? why do you need an extenal system path anyway? couldnt it be assigned trough blender in the first place?

Thanks to all builders!
I am waiting for this long time:

First i have set the environment variables it is easy!

For the crashing:
Quick test on 2 win xp Systems
1: Amd x2 1600 ATI OnBoard - - - Blender closes when starting rendering (all, the default cube or other files)
2: Amd 2000+ Nvidia 64 mb - - - everything goes well !!!!
I think its a problem with the stupid onboard Ati
I never buy a Laptop with ati again!
