Hey there! I just finally got the applink to work, after a whole bunch of struggling. The main issue is that old versions of 3dcoat interfere with new ones. The secret is:
- Delete every applink related folder out of my docs. both the app link and 3DC seems to write text files which contain path strings -- if any of these files contain a reference to an old directory either 3DC or blender will automatically recreate that old folder. In my case, every time I would launch Blender a "3DCoatV4
Hi,
I was constantly getting the "error" that my Blender Applink was installed but was out of date and instructing me to click OK to fix this. (It didn't fix it when I did click on OK.)
(I am running 3D-Coat 2022.24, but my files are still sitting in a 3D-Coat 2021 folder.)
I poked around and noticed a command windows appear briefly with some sort of batch file running, but this disappeared to fast for me to see what it was.
I ran Camtasia and captured the command window and
Hello.
This script does help to get the button back 'Export to: Blender' also in 3DCoat 2024.
BUT: Atm the AutoUpdate in Blender does not work, this is caused by Coats Applink which should pick up that file.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sidenotes:
-The 'Open in External App' Button is there for editing Blender content in Coat and send it back.
-The 'Export to' is there for Exporting NEW Content from C
Problem solved. Had to delete my applink folders in my Documents and do a fresh setup. Everything is good now. If in doubt, just delete applink folders.
