[BUG]Polypen instant crash:

{After opening Retopoflow and trying to use the polypen, it instantly crashes. This applies to every single object and file I try, even with the default cube. As I used the addon often before (also yesterday) without problems, I have to assume it's a bug.}

EDIT: I just tried with Blender 4.0 instead of 4.2 and this error did not occur! So it's probably a Bug related to the newest version!

Thanks for the report, @loewi7.

What is strange is that this particular error happens with bpy.ops.wm.url_open, where the filepath is too long... in other words, this appears to be an issue with Blender or your OS than with RF. What is your default web browser set to? I'll look into this a bit more.

But, was there another error before this? This error looks like it's related to reporting an issue, which happens after another issue.

The next time this issue (or another) appears, can you open the terminal window and copy everything you see in the window (there could be a lot) and paste it here? Directions for opening the terminal are at https://docs.retopoflow.com/debugging.html#windows.

Thanks!

My default browser is Chrome, and as search engine inside Chrome I use Ecosia.

Anyways, the error that I seem to get repeatedly, says "_RF_UI.handleexception: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object", and there are countless reports saying "_Caught Exception while trying to merge vertsplice(...): vert arguments match, Will try more robust merge" - not sure what that means but that seems to be the issue, no?

There wasn't really an error before that, but I will copy the info from the terminal in my next comment!

[vxlcoder]

perfect! ok, now it makes sense about the "too long" report, because the report was really long and I wasn't checking the length of report. will take a look at the recursion depth error when I get a chance. is this issue happening consistently for you?

[loewi7]

Thank you :) yep it’s really long lol. In Blender 4.2, yes, it crashes consistently - this is strange because it worked 2 days ago. For now, I can evade to the 4.0 version and run RF without problems, but of course it would be interesting to know what exactly causes this issue.
