Hiyas!
First up, thanks for such a cool looking particle system!

I managed to build lepton first time no trouble on osx python 2.5 but
I dont have the same version of VS (2005) as was used to build python
(2003) so it wont let me build it on windows.

Does anyone one have a build of the current release of lepton for
python 2.5 handy?

cheers,

Alia

I don't know of any existing builds, I know Jussi made some attempts
but building on windows against 2.5 is a major pita. I'm fairly
certain that it can be built with cygwin if that's any consolation.
Any particular reason not to just jump in and use 2.6?

You can build it with Mingw, you do not even need to install cygwin.
I didn't build any of the recent versions because my development laptop
is dead but it used to work a few months ago.

Cheers,
Fabrice
