Blender for PPC

[RedCroissant]

I have some trainmen and experience as a designer using Alias and SolidWorks and would still like to do some designing on my PPC Macs; more specifically my PowerMac G5s.

I know Blender has older versions of their software but does anyone know the 2.58 release was the last one for PPC? Thanks for any help!

According to this…yes. One release of 2.58 for Intel and one for PowerPC.

Higher versions require Snow Leopard after that point.

Not sure about 2.58 but I know my PowerBook G4 is using some version of 2.50.

Blender is great on PPC, and since 2.5x has the game engine, I aim on creating games through it.
