Testing a new method that hopefully will be faster to use than finicky socket selection - now just select multiple nodes and press F - available output sockets on the selected nodes will get automatically connected to the active node. It works for one socket type each time, to avoid getting lots of extra connections when you join up, but as a shortcut you can easily press F again to connect up other socket types. For example, to connect a render layer node (with vector pass) to a vector blur node, select the render layer then the vector blur, and press F three times to connect up the Image, Z and Vector sockets. It now also preferences sockets with the same name to connect up first. There's also another option (ctrl F) which will replace existing input links, rather than only connecting up links to available input sockets. * Also changed socket link knife cut to a more convenient shortcut - Ctrl LMB tweak
Welcome to the fun world of open source. For instructions on building and installing Blender, please see the file named INSTALL. ---------------------.Blanguages and the .blender directory--------------------- The .blender directory holds various data files for Blender. In the 2.28a release those are the .Blanguages file containing a list of translations, the translations themselves and a default ttf font. Blender checks for the presence of this directory in several locations: - the current directory - your home directory - On OSX, the blender bundle is also checked - On Windows, the installation dir is checked. If you get a 'File ".Blanguages" not found' warning, try to copy the .blender dir to one of these locations (your home directory being recommended). -------------------------------------Links-------------------------------------- Getting Involved: http://www.blender.org/community/get-involved Community: http://www.blender.org/Community Main blender development site: http://www.blender.org The Blender project homepage: http://projects.blender.org/projects/bf-blender Documentation: http://www.blender.org/education-help Bug tracker: http://www.blender.org/development/report-a-bug Feature request tracker: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Requests
