Blender 2.60 RC2 Available

Bart · October 14, 2011

The second ‘release candidate’ for Blender 2.60 is now available for testing. You know the drill: download, test, report bugs. Targeted release date – OMG! – this Sunday!

Author Bart

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Community Lead at n8n.

      I kinda reported that in IRC, but Brecht himself wasn’t in there due to the time difference. Glad you did. In case it comes up again for any reason, the workaround (which is why I didn’t file an official report) was to open a Cycles build, disable the Cycles addon and save as default. Then you can open the Trunk builds.
      Still, glad it’s actually fixed. :)
