Outdated glr file format

[James9669]

Hi, I'm trying to use your plugin with Blender. I have some glr files I got from Rosalie's Mupen GUI that ripped scenes from Kirby 64, I'm trying to get the models of the stone cutter Kirby. When I used your plugin to open the glr files I got this error:

Python: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.91\2.91\scripts\addons\io_import_glr__init__.py", line 170, in execute return import_glr.load(context, **keywords) File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.91\2.91\scripts\addons\io_import_glr\import_glr.py", line 34, in load ob = load_glr(filepath, triangle_options) File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.91\2.91\scripts\addons\io_import_glr\import_glr.py", line 67, in load_glr return GlrImporter(fb, texture_dir, triangle_options).load() File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.91\2.91\scripts\addons\io_import_glr\import_glr.py", line 85, in load self.load_header() File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.91\2.91\scripts\addons\io_import_glr\import_glr.py", line 98, in load_header raise RuntimeError(f'Outdated glr file format detected ({version}), please update the glr import addon') RuntimeError: Outdated glr file format detected (1), please update the glr import addon

location: :-1

If you could give any assistance in fixing this I'd really appreciate it.

Is there any reason why you are still using Blender 2.91? The plugin had a software bug up until Blender 3.5 and on-wards, so I recommend that you try the latest release as of this post (Blender 3.6 LTS)

[James9669]

I'll use the recent version and see how that works. Ty for getting back to me.

Did updating Blender resolve the problem, or are you still having the same issue?

This is the error I got using the current version of Blender.

Hmmm... seems similar to the one you received on Blender 2.91. Are you building the source code from the repo, or using the 1,0 release package?

[James9669]

I downloaded the zip, got the files out, and then sent te import io folder to a zip and installed by locating it in the Add Ons install menu

[Luctaris]

I could be wrong, but it seems like you're using the master repo code which includes experimental changes and modifications to the glr format. Try downloading and replacing the installed plugin you have with this one: https://github.com/Luctaris/blender-import-glr/releases/download/Releases/io_import_glr_v1_0_0.zip

[James9669]

It's having some trouble installing this through the AddOn menu. It says it is being installed, but it is not appearing in the Menu

[Luctaris]

Completely uninstall/remove the version you had installed and select the .zip file I linked above when re-installing it.

[James9669]

I've removed it, and can even see the import glr in the addons folder in my 3.6 install folder. But it is not showing in the addons menu in blender. Let me try this with version 3.5, it worked in that version right?

[Luctaris]

Technically it should work on any Blender version after 2.80, but I would recommend using Blender 3.5+ only because of a bug that was fixed. While you're still on 3.6, try manually placing and installing the addon. Extract the zip linked above to your %appdata%\Blender Foundation\Blender\3.6\scripts\addons folder. You can name the folder io_import_glr.
