hey, how to build blender with a patch? do you know maybe? which os? ubuntu :] cool have you built svn version yet? yes okay. which patch you want to use? normally patches are applied at blenderbranch/blender hmm, the one with new render patch made by broken i sstill need to find it k. i could give it a go too https://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=6830&group_id=9&atid=127 i also dont know how to get only diff from blender svn, do you? only diff? yes, from last download only new stuff that is "svn up" updates your branch to current status ah, thanks! "svn diff > file.txt" allows you to see the difference of your branch to real one that's the patch i'm looking for, yes basically you use that to make your patches to apply patch, use patch -p0 < file.txt. unapply by patch -p0 -R < file.txt huh you manage patches with patch command what is -p0 gotta check it's about how file names within patch are handled -p0 is standard in case of blender it's about stripping slashes basically ok, can you tell me full command to add patch in your local hd to be able to make build with patch applied? or is there more than one step? go to blenderbranch/blender and use patch -p0 < gloss01.txt after that compile the way you want if you apply multiple patches, you can remove them by first making diff of svn and then unapplying the patch (diff file) created by using patch command blenderbranch/blender is on blender. org, right? it's the branch you have downloaded the name could vary based on which branch you downloaded though *downloaded = checked out ok, thanks, i'll try i think there are instructions for this at blender.org k! :)
