To ensure compatibility with newer versions of Blender, when opening old *.blend files disable the Load UI setting in File Properties ( N). Important: when opening older *.blend files (pre Blender 2.79), disable Load UI (‘cog’ icon upper-right corner of the file browser) to omit layout and interface elements that may cause further issues due to UI incompatibilities with newer versions of the application.

So yea.For newer versions of Blender opening old projects may result in content appearing untextured in the 3D View, a consequence of dropped support for Blender Render and Multitexture style materials in favour of the Node system established with Cycles – Nodes are now the primary means of generating Materials in Blender. I dont like how it looks on the new interface.

I experimented with them, but I didn't really like them also. But if not, its not a big deal.Ībout colors, yes. I like the new design, but wanted to try the old one again, if there is one. I was just wondering, maybe someone there was maked and adapt this theme for the new blender already. I have been using the blender for a long time and it is wonderful and am satisfied. I have already adapted to the new design. Sooner or later it will become unfeasible to maintain that, so why not just adapt right away. It's never a good idea to try to stick to old stuff, be it hotkeys, UI or colors. That said, it's much easier to simply get used to the new one, takes a few days but won't give you all the hassle. Originally posted by The Renderer:Are you talking about color scheme or do you want the interface to look the same? Cause the latter is basically impossible.Īnd if it's the color scheme, you can simply do it yourself by opening both and copying over the colors as far as possible.
