The addon does not install, in the console writes that it was successfully installed

The addon does not install, in the console writes that it was successfully installed. It worked fine in 3.1.

Platform and versions

• OS: Is this windows
• Version of Blender:3.2 and 3.3
• Version of MPFB 1 and 2 alpha

As the plugin works fine in both 3.2 and 3.3 for me, I have not enough to go on to debug this.

Can you provide the following:

• A screenshot of the addon preferences window with the mpfb2 addon preferences section expanded
• A screenshot of the system console window as it looks after having started blender. You should be able to find this in the "window" menu, under "toggle system console"
• If you can find it, a screenshot of any mpfb directory that has been created under your blender user settings. Depending on how you installed blender these can be tricky to find though. They're usually under C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\3.xx somewhere, if they have been created at all

Ok, I don't see any obvious explanation to what happens. I'll try some experiments and see if I can provoke a similar behavior, but it will be a day or two.

Meanwhile, can you think of anything which might be different in your environment that might have an influence?

I have seen this behaviour - maybe even with a version of mpfb2. I suggest you check that the .zip file of the addon has the correct content. Mine looks like this... (the file dates will most likely differ as I think I am still running an old version)...

[You can reproduce the error by creating a .zip file with a single (empty) .txt file. It appears to install but does not get added to the addons list. Perhaps I should report this as a Blender bug!

Edit: When I had the same problem I had downloaded the plugin from an incorrect location... the correct location is...

https://download.tuxfamily.org/makehuman/plugins/

...and the latest version is at the foot of the list dated Oct 3.

Perhaps this will help. Sorry if not.

Edit Edit: Joel, should it also possible to download from the GIT repository 'releases'? It looks OK, but perhaps not current.

I download from tuxfamily and it just works.. version 2.0.3 its alpha 2 right or mpfb last?

[joepal1976]

@OfAllTheBars thanks, I'll take a look at the git repo. The releases directory is very much not relevant anymore.

@LainIwakura98 Good to hear that it works. The last number in the version string is the alpha number at the moment. So 2.0.3 is what to become 2.0-alpha3. It currently contains a few more bugfixes but is otherwise mostly identical to alpha2.

Closing this as I think all action points have been adressed.
