Good Evening @mac4kent !

Thank you for reaching out.

Indeed I don't have a Mac so I've never tried on this OS. If you can give me more info I can try to help and fix the issue.

Here is a build which will print more info in the terminal. if you can :

• remove previous addon
• install this modify addon

In the terminal you should see 3 lines after enabling the addon

UMI : Log file will be saved in : C:\path\to\temp\folder\XXXXXXXX UMI : Temp Folder : C:\path\to\temp\folde UMI : Log file path : C:\path\to\temp\folder\XXXXXXXXUMI_XXXXXXXXX.log

If you can send me what those line are it would help me

Yes I will show you my screen record tomorrow during our son go school

[mac4kent]

There for Mac path. https://youtu.be/IoHeZCFTZ9E You can put /tmp/ on show from hidden folder.

Also you can ask question to Nutti (Screencast Key) about Windows, Macintosh, and Linux is 3 separate path.

if mac { Macintosh } elseif windows { Windows } else if Linux { Linux }

Thanks a lot @mac4kent for these info and videos :) but I would really need you to install the modified addon I've send you. I'm using a standardize way of accessing tempfolder which should work on any platform ( PC, Linux, Mac) ... but apparently it is not entirely the case. So I need to understand what path is outputed from this tempfolder method. Maybe the path is wrong, or maybe there is actually a file access issue.

Thanks in advance

[mac4kent]

I already test there same version and still fail.

[Tilapiatsu]

Yes but I would need to know what message you can see in the blender system console

you should see 3 lines like these one: UMI : Log file will be saved in : C:\path\to\temp\folder\XXXXXXXX UMI : Temp Folder : C:\path\to\temp\folder UMI : Log file path : C:\path\to\temp\folder\UMI_XXXXXXXXX.log

[mac4kent]

Oh really I show you my Blender 4.2.0

This is great ! did you tried to

• right click on the blender app -> show package contents
• browse to content/MacOs
• to drag and drop the blender exec into the terminal to run it
• then enable the addon and look in the terminal

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'umi_colors' UMI : Creating Preset Folder : /Users/kentdavis/Library/Application Support/Blender/4.2/scripts/presets/umi/command_batcher

Kent on MacOS 1.0.0.txt Thanks a lot for your time :)

Great ! We're moving forward ! Apparently my modification isn't catching the issue properly. so I've made other changes. Can you retry with this V2 ?

I'm sorry I know it might be tedious for you, but because I don't have a Mac this is the only way I have to help you out

[mac4kent]

Same problem.

[Tilapiatsu]

don't you have other things printed in the console ?

[mac4kent]

How?

[Tilapiatsu]

Thanks ! This time the console caught the proper path.

I finally made some changes that would fix the issue you had. Please let me know if it works properly now. If it is good i'll make a proper release with the fix.

[mac4kent]

Yaaaaa ay it worked.

[mac4kent]

Don't forget update new version 2.1.4 or whatever you want.

[Tilapiatsu]

That's awesome ! Thanks for the confirmation :) I'll make a proper release on Github but it will arrive later on extensions.blender.org as the validation process is a bit longer.

Thanks again for your time :)
