I want to update blender to the latest version, 2.77, I'm currently using 2.75, and I know you can update blender by reinstalling the program, but my only concern is that would my files be imported into the next version.   And if not, how would I do so?

If I  uninstall the old version I have, then download the new version, will my I still be able to open my old project files, or will I lose anything in them like models, rigs, textures etc. I have a ton of blend files and really don't want to lose them! I hope you can help!!!

I need to find a way to import some .json models into Blender, and it seems I can't just import them the same way I can import a .obj model. So is there some way to convert a .json model to a .obj model, or another file type Blender can import? I've tried using Blockbench for this, but I think it only works with Minecraft recourse pack .json models, as those are the only models that will ever actually load in it. Thank you to anyone who can help me figure this out.

Blender is rendering an older version of my project, not the most recent one. I have made it using the Blender Render but it does not want to render in cycles either. A black and grey screen is rendered as if everything is transparent. Checked general camera, lighting and compute devises in case I messed something up but I can't find anything. All my textures and objects look normal, does anybody know what is wrong or what to check?  Ok added link:

I was trying to re-download the original Blender 2.8, however it goes directly to the 2.81 download page instead.  How can I access downloads for previous versions of Blender and installers for older releases?

Can you please tell me how to remake it for Blender 2.8x version?  def register():     bpy.utils.register_module(__name__)     bpy.types.INFO_MT_file_export.append(menu_func_export) def unregister():     bpy.utils.unregister_module(__name__)     bpy.types.INFO_MT_file_export.remove(menu_func_export) if __name__ == "__main__":     register()

According to , the current version of Python 2 is 2.7.10.  On my computer, I have 2.7.6:  $ python Python 2.7.6 (default, Jun 22 2015, 18:00:18)  [GCC 4.8.2] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. &gt;&gt;&gt; exit()   I figured I'd update to 2.7.10 using apt-get.  However, this doesn't work:  $ sudo apt-get install python2.7 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done python2.7 is already the newest version.   apt-get is telling me that I already have the newest version.  What gives?

I'm wondering if there's any addons or online libraries of materials I can download. I've found one called , but then discovered it was from 2008 and thought by now something like that might already be integrated into Blender.

I'm looking to pick up some programming skills and after looking into it a bit, I came across an article that recommended that I learn Python as a way of getting started at programming before moving on to other languages. I realize Python 2.x.x is preinstalled in Ubuntu, but I was wondering if it's possible to upgrade to Python 3.x.x as the site's documentation seems to indicate that 3.x.x is where the language is going in the future.  Failing that, how do I update Python 2.7.6 to 2.7.8?

I was experimenting with a file in 2.8 and accidentally saved it. When I opened it back in 2.79 I can't see my model. It disappeared with the error  File written by newer Blender binary.  How can I get my model? I can see my model in 2.8 but nothing in 2.79. I tried to export it  in .obj, but I lost all my modifiers, material and camera setting.

I have Blender 2.79 on my Windows 7 system.    I want to install 2.8, but I'm completing some courses which use 2.79.  If I install 2.8, will it automatically replace 2.79?  Will they interfere with one another?  Thanks.

I want to install blender on my old computer running Windows XP. I have installed the 2.76 version, but it did not install. I tried to remove it, but it is giving me an error again:  "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. this may indicate a problem with the package. the error code is 2753"   I have a PC Dual Core with 4 GB ram.  Which version can i install?  It must be near the latest and support Windows XP. Please have a link to download.

I just formatted my laptop and got rid of Windows 7. Yay ;-)  Either way, Wine is version 1.3.28 here, and I need it to update (there are some bugfixes) for my game so I need a more recent version. This is the version I got from the Ubuntu software manager. How do I get a more recent version or Wine version 1.4?  I've already added the repo into my repository, but still no updates.  Thanks in advance.

So, I've noticed when you render something in version 2.8, it automatically opens a new window, and renders it on that.  What I want to know is this:  Is there anything special about this window, and is there a way to set it so that it renders it in the original window, like it did in version 2.79?

Is there anyway to restore the Blender default Cloth settings? Or is there anyway to find what the default settings are?  I didn't realize at the time that by changing the values I was overriding the default values.  Using Blender v2.76.

There was an option to render volume in blender 2.71. I was used to doing that like in this tutorial:   But now, in Blender 2.72, it is not possible to use homogeneous volume, because, the check button is just not there anymore!    I also tried to open project made in 2.72 in 2.71, and the option was there, but not in 2.72. Im really confused of that. Why is it removed?

I'd like to install the latest Python, which is 3.6 at the time of this post. However, the repository is saying that Python 3.4.2 is the newest version.  I've tried:   $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install python3  python3 is already the newest version.  $ python -V  Python 3.4.2   To upgrade to Python 3.6 on my Windows workstation, I simply downloaded an exe, clicked "next" a few times, and it's done. What's the proper and officially accepted procedure to install Python 3.6 on Debian Jessie?

I try to import numpy in Blender 2.77a. My Blender uses python that came pre-packaged. It has numpy module "2.77/python/lib/python3.5/site-packages/numpy". But running import numpy I get this error:   found bundled python: /home/user/blender-2.77a-linux-glibc211-x86_64/2.77/python Traceback (most recent call last):   File "/Text", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;   File "/home/user/blender-2.77a-linux-glibc211-x86_64/2.77/scripts/modules/numpy/__init__.py", line 137, in &lt;module&gt;     from . import add_newdocs   File "/home/user/blender-2.77a-linux-glibc211-x86_64/2.77/scripts/modules/numpy/add_newdocs.py", line 9, in &lt;module&gt;     from numpy.lib import add_newdoc   File "/home/user/blender-2.77a-linux-glibc211-x86_64/2.77/scripts/modules/numpy/lib/__init__.py", line 4, in &lt;module&gt;     from .type_check import *   File "/home/user/blender-2.77a-linux-glibc211-x86_64/2.77/scripts/modules/numpy/lib/type_check.py", line 8, in &lt;module&gt;     import numpy.core.numeric as _nx   File "/home/user/blender-2.77a-linux-glibc211-x86_64/2.77/scripts/modules/numpy/core/__init__.py", line 5, in &lt;module&gt;     from . import multiarray ImportError: cannot import name 'multiarray' Error: Python script fail, look in the console for now...

Some missing paths, settings, libraries?
