Installing Citrix Receiver in Slackware 14.0

Go to http://www.citrix.com/downloads.html
Download and extract the linuxx86_12.1.0.203066.tar.gz file.
Use "su" to run the set up script "./setupwfc".
To avoid SSL error 61 messages, use "su" to link the web site certs from the Mozilla folder to the Citrix folder with "ln -s /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/* /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts/".
Use Firefox to navigate to your company's Citrix XenApp application site, authenticate, click on your hideous office icons and get to work.

Use controlKey + LeftArrow or RightArrow to switch between these views.

add video clip with vidSeq > Add > Movie. select an .avi file

add the scene vidSeq > Add > Scene. click in the window to 'root' the scene there.

See bgryderclock blendernation forum post for details

spacebar > add > text

switch to edit mode to edit the text
name the text material white and enable Ztransp to made the text transparent-able.
enable Shadeless

On the shader Tab:
set hardness and spec to 0
set Emit to max

make sure the text is between the screen and camers (duh!)

In the render menu enable "Do Sequence" to preview the combined track

Part 2: Animate the titles

open an IPO curve window.

select the board, set a loc keyframe on the first frame

move the board up and set new loc keys to animate the move.

select the curve and then select curve > interpolate > linear to make the changes "fast" / linear

use the K key (Key Mode) in the IPO window hi-light the verticle keyframe marker and slide them.

animate the material alpha

go to another window and switch to the "IPO-Material" view to animate the material alpha.

Select the push-pin icon on the IPO window to keep the window static

go to the first frame change the alpha value of the text and press the "i" key to insert a Alpha key.

go to insert another frame, change the transparency and insert key with the "i" key... and repeat!

Part 1 - create a draft enviorment

use a picture of the prentzel as a background / reference image for colors, lighting, and textures

build a box and a ramp in right side view. if you use the B key for box selection both point of the line will be selected

Tip: go to camera mode, select the camera border, press G Key, then Z key twice, and move the mouse to zoom the "dolly" in and out.

Tip: use the the group of buttons on the 3D panel (with the pointing hand) to enable a 3D scale, move, rotate tool

Part 2 - basic 3D pretzel mesh

add a bezier curve of layer 2vand a bezier circle on layer 2

rename the circle to "cc"

in the object props for the curve, enable the 3D button and type "cc" bev obj field, now the line is a tube.

IMPORTANT: make sure you have 3D button enabled, else there will me issues editing the "pretzel twist" verts.

extrude the tube with the e key, select all verts and press Shift+H to automatically rotate vert to smooth out the tube,repeat to create the pretzel shape.

select a vert and use Alt+S to fatten parts of the pretzel.

in object mode use Alt+C to convert the fancy curve to a mesh.

use set smooth to smooth the faces.

Part 3 - sculpt and details.

from object mode select Sculpt mode

press the N key to show the properties mode

use Ctrl+tab to select the sculptig brush type,
and use Shift+F to adjust the tool strength.
and just the F key to adjust the tool size

Set all the brush buttons in the Sculpt properties to "Airbrush"

Use Ctrl+tab to switch from grap and smooth mode to change the mesh shape.

Use shift+(the tool) to reverse the tool's effect.

hint: To move the camera around in the camera view select the camera border and press the G-key and drag the camera around.

apply a rough material color

Part 4

press ctrl+NUMPAD7 for bottom view

switch to edit mode to see the mesh verts

Flatten the bottom of the pretzel, use the paint select (B-key twice)

Tip: use the proportional editing to tweak shapes.

Time For Textures!

select the texture button

Add new > named "base bread bump" > texture type "stucci" > set noise and turbulance to a "concrete block" setting.

under the materials button, on the "Map input" tab set the sizeX and sizeY = 2

Map to: enable only the "Nor" button,

Hint: set up a small corner window with just the Preview sphere view.

under the world buttons, Amb Ccc tab, enable Ambient Occlusion. (this slows the test render)

Create a new texture called "mild cracking" > texture type: Musgrave > Noise Bias = V Crackle" > tweak the setting to "cracked dried Mud"

Create a create texture called "bubbling" > texture type = clouds > tweak the setting to "sponge mold"

under the materials button, on the "Map input" tab set the sizeX and sizeY = 3

preview and tweak

Time For Vertex Painting!

go to a top view and switch to Vertex painting mode. then go to the editing button > paint Tab. set the color to the lightest dough color. repeat with darker colors
