Hi mac users, Despite my remarks in previous mails I decided to build a full 4-architecture Universal 32/64-bit build for ppc/i386/ppc64/x86_64 (and don't say that I don't love you). Due to the fact that the 4 CPU-architectures are merged into one application, the Hugin.app is now a 188MB in size (including the tools). Not 200+MB as I thought before, as the Gui itself is "only" 32bit. Next to that a set of several versions of enfuse and enblend are included. Total compressed image size 94MB, uncompressed 261MB. You get a whole lotta Hugin for your money.
Everything is compiled for 4 architectures except from the Gui itself which is 32bit and everything should run on all hardware platforms as of G3 and as of Tiger, apart from enblend/enfuse ((2) and see further). Everything has been built up from scratch again with -O2 compilation optimization whereas the last 2 bundles where compiled with -O3 optimization. These last 2 bundles caused troubles on G4/G5 Tiger combinations. The bundle is still compiled against jpeg-8. If that's the "evil doer" than it still won't function and I need to go back to jpeg-7 (and might be able to use -O3 after all?) This 32bit/64bit bundle should run in 64bit mode when both your hardware (G5, Intel core duo or better) and your MacOSX (Leopard and SnowLeopard) support it. Note though that the Gui is 32bit and will display as such in Finder(*). The tools will run in 64bit mode. - Nona, hugin_hdrmerge, enblend, enfuse and all other tools will run in 64bit when possible. - Enfuse and enblend are OpenMP enabled (2). Those on Tiger should use the Tiger build from the "enblend-enfuse-4.0/Tiger" folder in the dmg image. - The optimise step (1) is part of the hugin application/gui and therefore a 32bit "part". - pto_merge and pano_modify (Thomas Modes' new tools) have been added as well in the Tools section (see the accompanying Readme.txt in the "Hugin Tools" in the dmg image) In the "enblend-enfuse-4.0" folder in the dmg image you can find several standalone enfuse/enblend versions. - Tiger -> For all of you still on Tiger, no matter the hardware. - Leopard-SnowLeopard/32bit-Universal-openMP -> For G3/G4 and Intel mono core and (early) intel duo-core with 32bit EFI. - Leopard-SnowLeopard/64bit-Universal -> compiled without OpenMP. - Leopard-SnowLeopard/64bit-Universal-openMP And off course: Read the Readme.txt inside the folder. (*): Applications in 32/64-bit build can be set to always run in 32bit or 64bit mode from Finder (Application, right-click, Get info). Hugin Gui is 32bit and doesn't know/show that switch. Note: I only did some basic testing. I didn't do speed comparisons either for 32bit vs. 64bit or OpenMP enabled vs. Non-OpenMP enabled or combinations of these. The whole exercise already took quite some time. I am curious though what your test results are, so your feedback is most welcome.
