Exported from blender to cascadeur, made some changes in cascadeur and while importing changes back to blender, cascadeu goes off or there is no changes in blender.

Some parts of the mesh stay in place while moving the rig. The rig is made using rigify, and particularly, it's the Zelda Rig by Soranin, link: https://80.lv/articles/a-free-zelda-rig-for-blender-3-0/

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Append the the rig into blender, open cascadeur through blender, select the mesh and the armature, and hit export
2. Auto Rig the imported model in cascadeur, using the Rigify default mappings
3. use AutoPose to pose zelda like she's falling, and some part of the mesh stays in place
4. Even try to make the animation, and import it in blender back, the animation on zelda's rig is broken

Environment:

• OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
• Blender version: 3.6.0
• Cascadeur version 2023.1

Additional context
Nothing in particular though, @arcsikex I showed up back, since went to a long detour to work on some other projects and my studies. And yes, it worked on linux after the last issue

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

when i try to import the ue5 manny into blender, some bones are missing like "head", and when I try to export that back into cascadeur, it has some issues with rigging the character, as the rig elements are not correctly sized and some are missing. this happens even if i use the ue5 manny project provided by cascadeur.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. if i export the scene in cascadeur as an fbx, then import that into blender, then all the bones are there.
2. then if i use the plugin to export it back to cascadeur, then there are no issues, so it seems to be an issue with the 'import from cascadeur to blender' function of the plugin.

Environment:

• OS: Windows
• Blender version: 3.5.1
• Cascadeur version 2023.1

Additional context
i am using the method shone in your video of deleting the transform object

Cascadeur don't work with the new gpu on m3 max, i can't import character, he is invisible and even the addon seems to be installed and they show me an error message.. I don' know how to do..

Describe the bug
im using a human meta rig from the rigify addon, and when i use the cascadeur bridge addon to import the action, the arms are always a bit behind what they should be. when i try importing scene it works fine, but i dont want to do that as i want to keep some constraints. (in the picture pink is the imported action and white is the imported scene.

Environment:

• OS: [e.g. Windows]
• Blender version: [e.g. 3.6.4]
• Cascadeur version [e.g. 2023.2.1]

Additional context
if i copy the pose from the white one to the pink one then it fixes it, however i dont want to do this for every frame of an animation

Describe the bug
Cascadeur will not start. It complains about a library. The library in question doesn't install through the Ubuntu package manager.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download Linux archive from web site. Unzip. Try to run executable.

Environment:

• OS: Linux Ubuntu 20.04
• Blender version: 3.6
• Cascadeur version 2023.1.1

Hi, thank for your wonderful work. i have this bug while adding the addon to blender. I've pictured the log hope you can give me a clue to what the problem might be

Describe the bug
After updating the the latest version 1.0.1 the system hangs each time I try to export. The hang resolves when it seems to time out trying to export. Importing does nothing.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Remove 1.0.0 through the blender addons ui.
2. Double check it's removed from appdata.
3. Install 1.0.1 through blender addons ui.
4. configure settings.
5. Use Bridge UI to start Cascadeur.
6. Import/Export

Environment:

• OS: Windows 11
• Blender version: 3.6.1
• Cascadeur version: 2023.1.1

Additional context
There's no Blender output for export. For import it only has "Server listening on localhost:53169" and never times out. This was working with 1.0.0, which I'll roll back to.

Language in menus in cascadeur has completely changed do random strings of letters

1. Every time i load up cascadeur. Even if uninstalling and re installing the language has changed and i cannot get it back into standard english

Additional context
Any help would be appreciated!

When I try to use the add-on, I always get an error message as soon as I press 'start cascadeur'. I believe the issue is that on the current Mac OS, you can't allow automation permissions. An app has to first request permission, and then you can grant it. Nothing in Blender, including the add-on, has requested automation permission, so there seems to be nothing I can do. If anyone has any advice, or has gotten the add-on to work on apple silicon, please let me know.

Hey there @arcsikex !
Since this is the first issue here, I state that I really like your initiative! That would save me us tons of time.

Now the thing is, This doesn't work on ubuntu, yet. The add-on installed perfectly, cascedeur ran perfectly, but the very moment I press export button, and error pops-up!

And I technically can't use Windows, because blender 2.9+ won't run on my old windows 8.1

Here is the screenshot:

And there is nothing imported in Cascedeur, but I can see those Temp import/export options in Cascedeur as you showed in your lastest Video, so it is installed correctly

From what I found out by digging into the project files, you use .pyd file, and as far as I know, .pyd binary runs on Windows and linux needs .so libraries.

And then if I again press the button, it says port in use, (which should be an easy bug to fix)

At last, Again thanks for starting this project. Fell free to ask me for any help!

Regards,
Harsh Narayan Jha

Describe the bug
I opened Cascadeur From blender with the addon and clicked import scene and i keep getting this error:
Opening scene failed! Invalid extension in file: C:/Program Files/Blender Foundation/Blender 3.3/commands.externals.temp_exporter

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open blender, open Cascadeur from the addon then click import scene.

Environment:

• OS: [e.g. Windows]
• Blender version: [e.g. 3.3.1] and Blender version: [e.g. 3.6.0] (Tried both)
• Cascadeur version [e.g. 2023.1]

Additional context
When i click import scene i get the error message i shared above and then in Cascadeur a new scene is created

I have tried exporting a model from Blender to Cascadeur and it seems to minimize, disappear and run in the background under Blender. I need to manually shut it down through the task manager. The export worked once, I had only the armature selected and so it exported only the armature. Sadly, even that stopped working and I am unable to reproduce it.

Hello, if like me when you import the model, it's broken, just check "Use Pre/Post Rotation" in the armature section of the addon's blender menu.

PS: Hey sorry if I'm not posting in the right place, I haven't found where else to post this solution :)

Installed fresh version of the plugin with the latest MacOS, Cascadeur and Blender versions.

When clicking "Import Scene" error is the same as in #40 - "Permission denied: '/Applications/Cascadeur.app'".

However, if I click "Install Requirements" in Preferences, and try again, error is "address already in use":

Restarting Blender leads to the same sequence – "Permission denied" is shown again. Going to preferences, clicking "Install Requirements" leads to "Addres already in use".

        current_permissions = os.stat(folder_path).st_mode

        new_permissions = current_permissions | stat.S_IREAD | stat.S_IWRITE | stat.S_IEXEC

        # Apply new permissions
        os.chmod(folder_path, new_permissions)
        print(f"Folder permissions for '{folder_path}' have been changed.")
    except OSError as e:
        print(f"Failed to change permissions: {e}")

3. Install add-on 1.0.0
4. Install requirements

Environment:

• OS: Windows 10

I have two issues, that may be related.

In Cascadeur I Generated a control rig for my character (Originally Rigged, in Blender, with Rigify) but the chest and back area have issues.

The Chest, does not seem to be assigned to any bone, so it floats.

The Back deforms a bit (looks like it's seperated just a tad, but it is noticable.

Cascadeur launches fine on its own.

Environment:

• OS: Fedora Linux
• Blender 3.6.0
• Cascadeur 2023.2

Hey, after following your instructions to the dot : extracting the addon zip folder to copy the externals folder and paste it into cascadeur's scripts/python/commands to get the cascadeur executable path to be /Applications/Cascadeur.app/Contents/MacOS/resources/scripts/python/commands/externals/temp_exporter.py

but even after multiple reinstalls of both the cascadeur app (2023.1.1), the cascadeur addon for blender (0.7) and of blender itself (3.5) i still get the same error message
Python: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users//Library/Application Support/Blender/3.5/scripts/addons/cascadeur_bridge/operators/csc_ops.py", line 39, in execute

with open(commands_config, "r") as f:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Applications/Cascadeur.app/Contents/MacOS/resources/scripts/python/commands/externals/resources/settings.ini'

*Edit : I even found the "settings.ini" file which is originally in /Applications/Cascadeur.app/Contents/MacOS/resources/settings.ini so i tried with that executable path as well as copying it in /Applications/Cascadeur.app/Contents/MacOS/resources/scripts/python/commands/externals/resources/settings.ini , to no avail ... i still get the same error message *

I always launch blender as admin through terminal and am really unsure what i'm doing wrong.
The context menu of the addon does appear as soon as install the addon (even before inputing the executable path

but i get an error whatever i chose :

Python: Traceback (most recent call last):

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Applications/Cascadeur.app/Contents/MacOS/resources/scripts/python/commands/externals/temp_exporter.py'

And i double checked having admin rights on the user as well as launching the app as admin through terminal (i.e. sudo /Applications/3.5.app/Contents/MacOS/Blender)

*Edit : Upon restarting Cascadeur i got an error message stating the app was corrupted and prompting me to delete it. So i did and the only way to have the correct folder in the installation directory (i.e. /Applications/Cascadeur.app/Contents/MacOS/resources/scripts/python/commands/externals/temp_exporter.py ) without crashing Cascadeur, was to install it, launch it, copy the folder and then restart Cascadeur. ( now i see the external commands drop-down menu in Cascadeur, but i get another error )

[Nothing has changed on Blender's side]

Hope you can help and thanks in advance !

Describe the bug
The character does not move when clicking Import Action. I assume it is because I use the Deform (DEF) bones to generate a rig in Cascadeur, but not 100% and not certain which bones should be used as Rigify has IK and FK rig controls.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. IN BLENDER - Export To Cascadeur
2. IN CASCADEUR - Use Quick Rig Tool to Rig. Using DEF-bones.
3. IN CASCADEUR - Create animation.
4. IN BLENDER - Import Action
5. IN BLENDER - Run Animation. = Character does not move.

Environment:

• OS: [Windows 11]
• Blender version: [4.1]
• Cascadeur version [2024.1 Pro]
• Model&Rig [Human Genator model (has a rigify rig.)]

Additional context
Import Scene works, but has some distortion in back.

Describe the bug:
When I try to import scene or action from cascadeur to blender it doesn't work because the external commands aren't there. They can also not be found in the command tab in cascadeur.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Have a Blender character and a animated cascadeur character with the same rig
2. Import action

Environment:

• Windows 11
• Blender version: 3.6.5
• Cascadeur version 2023.2

Additional context:
my theory is that I have a newer version than the addon is supposed to be for of blender or cascadeur

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Updating to version 1.0.3 doesn't change the version # in Blender

Environment:
-Windows 11 pro

• Blender version: 4.0
• Cascadeur version 2024.1

Python: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "G:\Blender\blender_scripts\addons\cascadeur_bridge\operators\fbx_transfer.py", line 187, in modal
import_fbx(file)
File "G:\Blender\blender_scripts\addons\cascadeur_bridge\operators\fbx_transfer.py", line 14, in import_fbx
bpy.ops.import_scene.fbx(
File "G:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.6\3.6\scripts\modules\bpy\ops.py", line 113, in call
ret = _op_call(self.idname_py(), None, kw)
AttributeError: Calling operator "bpy.ops.import_scene.fbx" error, could not be found

While importing from cascadeur to blender rotation on x-axis is -180 degree.

I assume it would fail to pull the FBXes, right?

Hey, I don't think this is a bug however I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this problem, when ever I try to import my action from cascadeur 2024:1 to blender 4.1, it just glitches and does not work as you can see in the picture. Anyone know the cause and or the fix? In case it has something to do with the settings I will send add a screenshot of all my settings for the addon. If you read this then thank you for taking your time to read this :)

Describe the bug
I've installed the addon according to instructions, I think, and can start cascadeur from blender via the addon.
But when I try to export a scene to cascadeur I get this error message (in Cascadeur):
"Couldn't create socket. Error: [WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"

There's no error message in blender from what I can see.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Started Blender as admin
Started Cascadeur from blender
Clicked "export to cascadeur" in blender

Environment:
Cascadeur_bridge version 1.0.1
Blender 3.6 (installed via Steam)
Cascadeur 2023.2.1 (basic)
Windows

Describe the bug
When using the "Export to Cascadeur" feature, the armature seems to not export 100%

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Select mesh and armature
2. Export to Cascadeur

Environment:

• OS: Windows
• Blender version: 3.6.2
• Cascadeur version 2023.1.1

Additional context
Most of the armature is fine, however the feet and head seem to be weirdly short. Here's two images comparing a manual export, and an export using the add-on. It's not the biggest deal since exporting animations into blender seems to work fine, but it seems like a bug, none the less.
