thanks for the info. it seems plugin compatibility was broken again. Blender 2.80 is updated almost every day and each update can break the plugin compatibility. we will release a new version soon that supports latest Blender 2.80. but this can happen again until the end of beta.

ahh okey thanks for reply back very quickly Is there any blender 2.8 version works link could you share with me I deleted all older versions from my computer and cant find them on the internet right now

[i-saint]

it seems they don't keep archives of non-latest versions of 2.80. but fortunately, I could build the plugin for the latest 2.80. this should work: UnityMeshSync_Blender_Windows.zip

(I assume your OS is Windows)

It works so well thank you very much

@i-saint is there a quick guide for building a macos build myself? I needed latest blender for another addon and just realize it breaks meshsync...

@bitinn

1. clone Blender source (git://git.blender.org/blender.git)
2. clone MeshSync source
3. extract Blender headers
   • move to MeshSync.MeshSync\Plugin\MeshSyncClientBlender\tools
   • python extract_headers.py [path to cloned blender source]
   • copy extracted headers to MeshSync.MeshSync\Plugin\External\blender-2.80\include
4. build plugin
   • build_blender.bat or MeshSync_Blender.bat

possibly it doesn't compile because of changes in Blender sources. in that case, you need to update sources in MeshSyncClientBlender by yourself.

@i-saint I might be missing something in this step:

build_blender.bat or MeshSync_Blender.bat

I don't think these scripts would work on macOS?

I tried to setup my build script through VS Code:

{
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "label": "build",
            "type": "shell",
            "command": "msbuild",
            "args": [
                ".MeshSync/Plugin/MeshSyncClientBlender.vcxproj",
                "/p:Configuration=Release",
                "/t:Build",
                "/p:Platform=x64"
            ],
            "group": "build",
            "presentation": {
                "reveal": "silent"
            },
            "problemMatcher": "$msCompile"
        }
    ]
}

But the project expects Visual Studio, right? I can't get pass this line (even if I setup other MeshSync specific environment variables.)

<Import Project="$(VCTargetsPath)\Microsoft.Cpp.Default.props" />

I assumed your OS is windows. you need to use cmake on non-Windows.

Thx for working on it, just a quick note, don’t build against RC1, it has a code-signing issue on macOS that cause some addons using ctype to fail, make you build on RC2 (or beta, which is unsigned)
