Blender uses Python as its scripting language. (Blender itself is described in C ++)
In this article, I'll write about Blender and Python versions.
It was hard to understand which version of Blender corresponds to which version of Python, so I summarized it. Python is included from Blender Ver2.5 or later.
| Blender Ver | Python Ver | Include? |
|---|---|---|
| 2.Before 37a | Python2.3.5 | No |
| 2.43-2.40 | Python2.4.2 | No |
| 2.44 | Python2.5.1 | No |
| 2.45-2.47 | Python2.5.2 | No |
| 2.48 | Python2.5.4 | No |
| 2.49 | Python2.6.2 | No |
| 2.5x | Python3.1 | Yes |
| 2.60-2.64 | Python3.2 | Yes |
| 2.65-2.69 | Python3.3 | Yes |
| 2.7x | Python3.4 | Yes |
I couldn't find the official page for sure, so I created it by referring to various articles. I'm sorry if I made a mistake.
(Note: 2.43-2.40 uses the following) Python2.4.2 (Note: Use the following before 2.37a) Python2.3.5
for Blender 2.44, Python 2.5.1 is necessary.
- Execute (install) blender-2.48a-windows.exe and copy the contents of blender-2.48a-windows.zip.
- Run (install) python-2.5.4.msi.
Blender 2.49b uses Python 2.6 series
Blender 2.5 uses Python 3.1
it is the version 2.60a which already contains Python 3.2.
2.65 and later python 3.3
Blender 2.7x needs Python 3.4
Blender has a completely different interface since 2.5. Older versions are not used because they are not maintained, but in the case of Blender, because I changed too drastically from 2.4 series to 2.5 series (Python version has also changed), 2.4 series assets can be used at all after 2.5 It's gone.
Blender Wiki: Extensions:JA/Py/Scripts
Blender 2.49b uses Python 2.6 series. This section provides many good scripts and examples for writing scripts. These scripts cannot be opened in Blender 2.5 / 2.6. However, these algorithms are still very helpful.
When I search for Blender information on the WEB, 2.4 series articles come to the top, so I thought that old articles were unnecessary, but I thought that I could find the phenomenon that I am currently using. ..
Skyrim MOD creation Wiki Blender introduced
We have the latest 2.7x for easy modeling and two 2.49b for I / O. Most of the plugins used in Skyrim only support up to 2.49b, so the older version 2.49b is almost mandatory.
It seems that the development of add-ons that can be used only with Blender 2.7x is progressing now, but until a while ago it was necessary to use the assets of 2.49b. It is difficult to balance the inheritance of past assets and the motivation for new development.
