Blender 3.0 errors

[ShnitzelKiller]

In case this helps with getting the plugin compatible with the latest version of Blender, I have found a few errors that pop up in this version on an avatar that behaved fine in 2.92.

• When I try to bake my model, I get the following errors:

Just to be clear, the exact same operations work on these model when opened in Blender 2.92.

Try the latest development, I just fixed that like yesterday-ish

I tried out the development branch. "Fix model" still crashes with that error. Baking doesn't crash, but the result looks like this, with the UVs mostly squashed into a line and some meshes missing:

From your picture, it looks like it may have the scale all wrong. Could you try applying the scale for the original model and re-baking?

If that doesn't work, feel free to send me your .blend (with textures packed) and I'll try to take a look ASAP.

Try the latest development, I just fixed that like yesterday-ish

It doesnt work, ive tried for the whole day and tried different versions. I'm trying to create eyetracking but instead it fucks up my eye shapekeys and says the python error:

Error: Python: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users<user>\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\3.0\scripts\addons\cats-blender-plugin-master\tools\bake.py", line 384, in execute self.perform_bake(context)

Try the latest development, I just fixed that like yesterday-ish

I dont get the error anymore but it still ruins the shapekeys and eye tracking doesnt want to work. Please fix.
