Maya 2020 exporting error #31

Closed mithrils495 closed 2 years ago

mithrils495 commented 3 years ago

Hey Ross, love your tool first of all!

I have an error using the tool for Maya while exporting. It goes:

" Mesh export failed! ... Maya Node does not exist (or is not unique):: u'None' "

I'm using Maya 2020, I have a friend who uses an older version of Maya and it works for him. Do you know the specific problem with this?

You'll have to give me a little more info to go on or zip and upload your Maya scene I'm afraid!

The error you've gotten is saying that the exporter is trying to process something but has found that it actually doesn't exist. The message by itself isn't very helpful.

If you open the Script Editor in Maya it will give you much more detailed output, including which lines of my code the error is coming from etc... (Menu bar: Windows > General Editors > Script Editor) If you can get me that output then I can look at the problem. But you are correct that I've not tested in Maya 2020, I only have 2015 and 2018 personally though I can probably test at work.

I'll see what other info I can provide to help. I downloaded Maya 2019 and it works fine, so I suspect is an issue with Maya version. Thanks for the reply.

Getting the same error in Maya 2020. Only for animation export, mesh export is working fine!

here's what the script editor is showing:

Thanks for the info, is there any chance you could get me access to your Maya scene file for this so I can look at where it's going wrong?

Unfortunately this looks like a Maya code error that I might have to work around. (ie bone.name() should not return None and I would need to look at your scene to check why that happens)
