And I really want to just teach Blender because I think it's really cool and it's got a new facelift, they've added a lot of new features, so you can check out all the new things they've added. But I wanted to teach you all on what's coming. You know, I didn't want to teach you the old thing.

Make sure you know this is not 2.8.

This is I guess, an older one, but we want the beta. So go ahead and make sure you click on beta 2.8 and then it should download. So it's only gonna take 45 minutes, but should only take a few minutes to download and then we'll install it. If you already know how to install programs on your computer.
