Error when importing .psa to armature

[wr4thful]

Versions Blender: 4.0.2 io_scene_psk_psa: 6.1.0 and 6.0.0 (tried both)

Describe the bug

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Select Armature
2. File > Import > Unreal PSA (.psa)
3. See error

both psk and psa file is exported using latest version of umodel as of now (12/01/2024) i am aware of what caused the error by the warning mark in blender but i am wondering if this is simply caused by the addon or umodel export itself

hoping to see responses and help, thank you very much :)

Can you provide the PSK and PSA you are using to get these warnings?

[wr4thful]

hi, thanks for responding. sorry for the late responses,

heres the psk and psa file deleted due to privacy

please let me know if u had trouble accessing the file

[cmbasnett]

The ThirdPersonRun.psa seems to be for a completely different rig than the one in the PSK. There are no matching bones, which is a pretty telltale giveaway that the two files aren't meant to work together.

[wr4thful]

okay i understand, but the LV_Character01_Run.psa are meant to work together right? cus theyre obtained from same directory. i assume issue came from umodel export itself because the game is small and not very popular and the process may have not been properly optimized. but i thought i just came here to ask if theres anything that can be done to solve it or any workarounds

[cmbasnett]

Yes, LV_Character01_Run.psa works fine with it, I tested it myself.

that is strange, sadly it doesnt work for me with any of the .psa

this is what i got

ive also recorded the process, please let me know if im doing things wrong or ive missed something crucial in the steps https://streamable.com/vrn5iz

ive also checked the addon version again

I'm getting the same error when trying to import a different file (can't post it sadly), deleting the corresponding .config file resolves it

Edit; error:

[cmbasnett]

Yea, the issue here is that the .config file is not a correctly formatted INI file, so the script fails to parse it. Deleting the .config file will resolve the immediate error. I will look into adding special handling for UEViewer's broken file formatting.

@Equbuxu @wr4thful I've published a new version that should fix this issue.

https://github.com/DarklightGames/io_scene_psk_psa/releases/tag/6.1.1

Please give this a try and let me know if this resolved the issue for you.

[wr4thful]

just tried the new version and it gives this error

deleting the corresponding .config file does makes the process succesfull, but i dont see any keyframe in blender timeline or any animation strips in the NLA editor. the object pose also did not change at all and im not entirely sure how to check if the animation set is there or not.

[cmbasnett]

Please send the files you are using for this, otherwise I can't reproduce your problem.

hey man after carefully checking everything i realized the addon actually succesfully imports the .psa even though theres an error pop up like i posted in last screenshots. after following the instruction from the FAQ i can now see the animation set and its working just fine. terribly sorry for causing all noise and thanks for the help and fixes. much appreciated :)
