Hi! As far as I know, the linux release always was a bz2 archive. Only windows release is a zip archive (as shown in the video). Can you check if the issue remains with renamed addon folder name, i.e. keep the name BlendLuxCore?
Thanks for your answer.
If you look through releases you will find that only the last alpha and beta versions for Linux are tarballs. Where do you see a *.tar.bz2 in the video?
I tried renaming both folders. Unfortunately it does not change anything.

Ok, I got it now. You downloaded the wrong release files. For the Blender addon, you have to go to BlendLuxCore. There are zip files for linux. The LuxCore project only has the binaries for standalone use of LuxCoreRender.
Ahhh, I see. That solves it. Thanks a lot!
Hello, I try to get LuxCore 2.8 running on Blender-4.0.2 without success. I downloaded luxcorerender-v2.8alpha1-linux64.tar.bz2 from https://github.com/LuxCoreRender/LuxCore/releases. First, it is confusing not to get a *.zip archive, since this is what Blender expects for the common addon install process. Funny enough, 9 months back it obviously was still released as a zip archive. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u50EKV1Wi6U go to 1:10) So, I copied the extracted LuxCore folder into .../home/kubuntu/APPS/BlenderLauncher/stable/blender-4.0.2-stable.9be62e85b727/4.0/scripts/addons Blender finds it in Preferences > Addons, but I cannot activate:
/home/kubuntu/.config/blender/4.0/scripts/addons/BlendLuxCore_280/bin/init.py exists, but is empty!
The version number seems weird, but ... who cares?
Any hints, how to get this working are very much appreciated.
I would also highly suggest providing zip archives for Blender!
