How do I install user contributed assets for 1.1 in Linux?

I've tried to put downloaded files in the "makehuman\v1\data\custom" folder but that does not work. When I start MakeHuman, I still cannot find the asset.

Only targets end up under custom. The rest of the assets should be placed in their respective directory for asset type, for example clothes in ~/makehuman/v1/data/clothes.

Thanks Joel. What folder does the adult male genitalia go in?

------------------------------------

Edit/Update:

I put it in the proxymeshes folder and now MakeHuman puts the adult male genetalia under the gender category. So that's all fine. But now I have a different problem. I can't apply the asset to my existing character file.

Proxies go into the "proxymeshes" subfolder. You might have to create this if it doesn't exist. I usually don't bother to create specific subfolders for each asset for these.

Anyway, if you're planning on downloading a larger set of assets, you might be interested in the new asset downloader plugin, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgswsTV_8lE

This does not yet download proxies however, so you'd still have to download those manually.

Thanks again.

MakeHuman now finds the adult male genitalia. But the sliders don't move and the penis does not appear on the model. So I guess this user's contribution simply does not work for 1.1.0.

This should work with 1.1.0. Maybe you could post the log. This looks like somethings going wrong.

Just to make sure: Under v1/data/proxymeshes you have a subfolder called adult_male_genitalia. In this folder are at least three files: adult_male_genitalia.obj, adult_male_genitalia.proxy and adult_male_genitalia.thumb.

Works for me, ubuntu 14.04:



Are you using the 1.1.0 release from PPA?

Ok. I got it. It was just ignorance on my part as to how to get the thing going. I did not know that I first had to apply the proxymesh for the adult_male_genitalia before the gender>genitalis slider target controls would have any effect.
