I will try a build with scons tomorrow evening and hope a new build will be possible even for me :-). As always, feedback will be given - good or bad - for you and all lurkers who might also be interested in that stuff. > In the worst case (if that fails and if you trust me :-), then I > could still send you the compiled binary.

This binary works without any problem using *many* scripts but not with all, so I am still interested to build my own version as said before. Especially I am interested in the Blender Caliper Measure script which runs up with this binary and accepts all inputs but crashes when I hit the button "Measure". Do you have Caliper installed? If yes, does it work together with Python 2.5? Just curious about. Anyway, thank you once again for your help which is also an investment into my growing 3D objects work for EDDW and Northern Germany as you might have seen in the German FlightGear forum. I can understand all problems new users have with Blender (as I had them myself :-/ ) but once you get a little more familiar with this program just by *using* it a lot you won't give it away anymore. This is not said for you as you know Blender very well but for all others interested in 3D-work but still afraid of this "monster".
