Blender 3.0 for Zeta OS

1

Howdy!

Have any of the past or current Zeta OS users used the Bender 3.0 version for Zeta OS?

I lost my Zeta PC’s archive due to corruption on the main and archive hard drives when the IDE controller went berserk causing filesystems to unreadable and unretrievable.

Around 2022 and by pure chance, I came across a forum while doing searches for answers for a completely different issue when I came across a forum entry about an individual who compiled Bender 3.0 for Zeta OS. I downloaded and it was a good copy. I tested it and it definitely was faster than v2.41. Now I need it and realized my copy was gone when the hard drives were destroyed…I thought I had made an off-line copy of it. it is heart-breaking since Zeta software in general is hard to find most times.

Anyone ever used this version Blender for Zeta OS?

Ref:

I remember a few people posting various ports so we’d have to backtrack from the time of Blender 3.0 release.

We were posting back in 2021 on Blender progress and Blender 3.0 came out during Dec 2021.

Blender 3.0.1 is also available. Maybe we can hunt down the porter… or just recreate the port….

NOTE @3dEyes did the Blender 3.0 port for Haiku….

I know it was not this forum…it was a graphics artist type forum since I was looking for troubleshooting tips on photo processing from 35mm images from CD. Out of habit, I saved the URL for the file…unfortunately, I lost it when the hard drive was corrupted. I will start backing up my bookmarks and integrate them from now on.

I also was hoping that individual might have discovered Haiku since he was a Zeta OS user in 2022, and probably still does use it like I do today, alongside with Haiku.

Thanks!
