This also resulted in the discontinuation of Blender's development. After NeoGeo's dissolution, Ton Roosendaal founded Not a Number Technologies (NaN) in June 1998 to further develop Blender, initially distributing it as shareware until NaN went bankrupt in 2002. NeoGeo was later dissolved, and its client contracts were taken over by another company. On January 1, 1998, Blender was released publicly online as SGI freeware.
Some design choices and experiences for Blender were carried over from an earlier software application, called Traces, that Roosendaal developed for NeoGeo on the Commodore Amiga platform during the 1987–1991 period. The name Blender was inspired by a song by the Swiss electronic band Yello, from the album Baby, which NeoGeo used in its showreel. Version 1.00 was released in January 1995, with the primary author being company co-owner and software developer Ton Roosendaal. MB-Lab 1.6.The Dutch animation studio NeoGeo (not related to the Neo Geo family of video game hardware) started to develop Blender as an in-house application, and based on the timestamps for the first source files, Januis considered to be Blender's birthday. It includes the results of years of prototyping and studies realized by him during the development of his 3d graphics projects. He is the author of Manuel Bastioni Laboratory, a free and open source add-on for Blender to create 3d humanoids. In 2000 he started Makehuman Project, a free and open source software for the modelling of 3d photo-realistic characters, winner of "Suzanne Award" as the best python script for Blender 3D in 2004. He was one of the authors of "The Official Blender 2.3 guide, the open 3D creation suite", writing the chapter "From Blender to YafRay Using YableX" Member of Blender Artist community since 2002. Manuel Bastioni is active in open source projects since 1999. Contributors wanted! Python programmers needed!
MB-Lab is an attempt to keep the ManuelBastioniLAB Blender addon alive through community efforts. Is it possible to maintain a single codebase that works for both Blender 2.7 and 2.8? (Yes). MB-Lab 2.79 is initially intended to be a solo project, base on animate1978's reboot of ManuelBastioniLAB, reset to 1.6.5b Blender 2.79 Onlyįor use with the latest version of Blender 2.79 from the Arch Linux repositories, or other recent source.
