- wndows :
- This script works with Blender 2.49b, available here:
http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.49b/
You also need a complete Python 2.6 installation :
http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.6/
once Python is installed, Blender should be aware of it. its console must display the message above :
else you might find this page really usefull :

- linux :
if you are not comfortable with linux, or because installing bender 2.49b on ubuntu 11.10 is not that easy, you can check:

- once you have downloaded the last release of Blended Cities, unzip the folder anywhere you want. (for example unzip it using 7zip http://www.7-zip.org/ , a swiss but open-source army knife for any kind of archive)
it is not recommended to locate the BlendedCities folder in the Blender folder, like in .blender/script, because the BC folder contains also a library of urban objects that should not reside here.
- move the blended_cities_24hook.py file from the Blended Cities folder into the Blender script folder (.blender/scripts) :
(with ubuntu, the .blender folder is hidden : type ctrl H in the Nautilus window to display it)
- you can now have a first try !
