PyPRP2 and Blender 2.58

Postby Sirius » Tue Jul 05, 2011 4:00 am

Is there a way to use PyPRP2 on Blender 2.58 or should we better use 2.57 ?
I tried on 2.58 but it won't work: it seems it can't find one of the script files.

I tried with 2.58 (which can still be found here: http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.58/ ) and with 2.58a (which was released yesterday), and it worked well for me.

Be sure to make all adaptions to the PyPRP files you might have done for getting it to work in 2.57 for 2.58 or 2.58a now as well.
This is needed because the GoW PyPRP2 Beta1 Version 0.8.1 ist still this: Version 0.8.1 , so newer patches are not included automatically.

By the way, I had a look at the Python API changelog (http://www.blender.org/documentation/bl ... e_log.html)
and also had a look at the latest changes they made from 2.58 to 2.58a (http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:R ... gelog_258a),
and I don't see any changes which would affect PyPRP2 behaviour, so it should still work (besides the fact that it does for me).

I am using version 0.8.1, with 2.58a and put the necessary files in the root folder. The script files are in 2.58→scripts→addons and 2.57→scripts→addons (I tested it as it didn't with the 2.58 folder).

I always get this error: in the Addons tab of the user preferences, PyPRP2 is at the bottom of the list and above it is written "Missing script files". I think there should be everything however. The console does not say anything.

Just to avoid misunderstandings: Does it match this folder structure?

If this still does not work, replacing exporter.py, geometry.py and lights.py with the versions in this small fix might do the trick:

EDIT: Link to the PyPRP2 Mercurial repository removed, because PyPRP2 project moved to GitHub (see announcement from Branan if you're interested) and the Mercurial part is now static and read-only - to avoid re-directing members stumbling accross this post to a no longer maintained PyPRP2 source.

Ok, it seems I messed up my files when installing the new version. Thank you, it works fine now.
