Installation on 2.79b problem

Post by chaba »

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to install the Luxcore on blender 2.79b. I followed the instructions on this page (viewtopic.php?f=9&t=736&p=9704#p9704), but with no luck - I have daily build of blender and daily build of Luxcore overwritten over the master. Still no luck. The error I get is attached. It does get activated in official blender 2.79, but I cant seem to make it work in daily build. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Heres the steps I take: 1. download the version from Downloads page 2. Install it. 3. Download a daily build of Luscore from this address (https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/LuxCor ... tag/latest), 4. Overwrite the files daily built to files in AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.79\scripts\addons\BlendLuxCore\bin folder.
After that I get the same message which is attached. And I have all the microsoft c++ files installed. Thank you in advance.

It is simple and safer to install the lastest Blendluxcore here (Alpha 2.2) : https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/BlendL ... v2.2alpha0
Just make a simple install from file and close / relaunch blender after that.be sure to remove all previous unseccessfull attemp.

Also, LuxCoreRender will not work with Blender daily builds because of the different embedded python version.
You need to use the official Blender 2.79b release.

Chaba, I have posted a link to a Python 3.7 enabled version here:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=937&start=20#p10572
It should work with the Blender 2.79b daily build.

By the way, I forgot to say that what I wrote above applies only to Windows.
