Unable to install atomium #41

I'm located in China. Maybe it's because of the network. I tried many times and couldn't install Atomium. Is there any other way?

BradyAJohnston commented 2 years ago

You should still be able to download OK. Are you able to share what version of Blender & what version of Molecular Nodes you are using? Also if possible to show blender console during install to see the error. (Windows -> Console)

Mangkun-Chen commented 2 years ago

I tried version 0.9 and 0.81 of Molecular Nodes. Blender is 3.2. I'm downloading again. The speed is very slow. It's been 3 minutes. But I installed it successfully this time. Thank you!! image

I'm glad it is working now! Was v0.9 not working? And now v0.8.1 is working? I might have to double check the release.

Mangkun-Chen commented 2 years ago

I started with version 0.9 yesterday, but this version failed to install atomium. Later, I tried version 0.8.1 which was also unsuccessful. This morning, I open the console according to your method, and then it succeeded. (The version is 0.8.1)

Another problem has just been encountered, but it has been solved. In blender version 3.2.0, I can't import protein, and a few lines of errors will be displayed. However, after updating to 3.2.1, it was successful.

Mangkun-Chen commented 2 years ago

I found the problem. If my blender is set to Chinese, I cannot download protein. If it is changed to English, there is no problem, and it may not be a version problem. In the morning, I changed blender to English in order to find "(windows - > console)", which may be the reason for my success.

When I change the interface to Chinese, I can reproduce the error

BradyAJohnston commented 2 years ago

Ah I see. Yes this has come up once before in #29 where changing from Japanese -> English fixed the issue. Seems to be that in non-english languages this changes some of Blenders internal Python API. I will try to come up with a way around this, but for the time being it seems that Switching to English will fix the problem. Thanks for the detailed error report and being able to reproduce this!
