Does not work with blender 3.6

[Justiniscoding]

I downloaded the "latest" version from your website, and it is telling me that the build does not work at the moment. I am on a 2022 MacBook air with an M2 chip running the latest MacOS version (ventura)

We do not have daily builds for Arm Mac, only x86. So the latest build you downloaded only works for x86 Mac.

OK thanks, is there a way where I can compile from source for arm?

[Justiniscoding]

Nevermind, I found out how to do it. You can compile it from source by running the follow commands in terminal:

cd ~/Downloads/
git clone https://github.com/JacquesLucke/animation_nodes
cd animation_nodes
brew install python@3.10
pip3.10 install cython
python3.10 setup.py build --export --noversioncheck

After running these commands(which will take a while) a zip file will be created in ~/Downloads/animation_nodes that you can import in blender
NOTE: This will only work on a mac

NOTE 2: You will need the xcode developer tools installed. You can install them by running xcode-select --install in terminal

NOTE 3: You will need to install homebrew if you do not have it already by running /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" in terminal

NOTE 4: For future blender versions, a different version of python may be required. To check the python version used by your version of blender follow the guide at https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/45528/how-to-get-blenders-version-number-from-python/45529. If your blender version does use a different python version, replace the numbers 3.10 in the commands with the new python version number.
