Mac OSX

We're super excited to announce that we've finished work on the new version of the Renderfarm.fi uploader script. This means we can now provide you guys with new builds of Blender 2.5 with the new improved script in them. The new version also fixes a nasty bug that has caused some of the recent renders fail (as witnessed by many black preview boxes in the gallery). New features include:

• Settings verification: the uploader will now help you in preparing your .blend file for a successful render on Renderfarm.fi
• Session management: you will now be able to list your own sessions, see their progress and even cancel sessions that haven't been accepted yet
• More intuitive use: You are no longer required to remember your user id, just your e-mail and password on Renderfarm.fi will suffice
• Version updates: You can easily check for new builds from within Blender 

Remember to give feedback. Now go download:

The 32 and 64 bit Intel Mac OSX clients are near finished and will be deployed and tested today. If the deployment goes well, it will mean that for the first time BURP's history, Mac users can join projects as equal contributors.

We're also getting close to releasing the new version of the Renderfarm.fi distribution of Blender (perhaps later on during the week) and the website will also get some new features during the next few weeks.
