Hello
I have installed make human several ways & versions, yet no matter what I do I cannot get the plug-in installed correclty or at least see the community tab....
I'm on manjaro KDE using the master version (1.2.0)
1) The folder & all of the files are unzipped to desktop
2) I followed the instructions & executed "download_asset_git.py" from the MakeHuman folder
3) I executed the "MakeHuman.py" script from the folder to open the application
4) I went to settings sub-tab "user plugins" where you can select from zipped plug-in or plug-in file. I have tried both ways & copying the zipped + unzipped plugins direclty into the plug-in folder (which is a folder with several filetypes in it other than python scripts) which also didn't work.
When I choose to "install zipped plug-in", I get an ackowledgement that it's installed but there is no other option that appears from the list of user plugins (only when choosing python scripts does anything show there & not all python scripts end up on that list with a check box). After restarting the application, nothing shows up & if I try to install it again, MakeHuman acknowledges that the zipped plug-in is already existing (though I can't find it in the plug-in folder).
When I install MakeHuman with a package manager, 2 files are created that I know of: "./opt/makehuman" & "./user/documents/makehuman". If I delete "./opt/makehuman" folder, nothing happens to "~/documents/makehuman" but if I delete the "~/documents/makehuman" folder then the other is deleted as well. Now I have downloaded both versions of 1.2.0 (master & git) & run them directly from their extracted folders from my desktop.
Do I need to move the build files or execute python scripts within the "MHAPI" plug-in folder? Does the folder need to have files manually moved from it into the plug-ins folder or just the whole file moved there after being unzipped? Do I have to put the unzipped file into the plug-ins folder before I select it as a zipped plug-in?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
