Hello
I am have repeatedly followed the extension linux installation instructions for Blender 4.2
https://www.soft8soft.com/docs/manual/en/blender/Installation.html#Installation_for_macOS_or_Linux
on 2 Rocky linux machines but the extension is not seen.
Is there anyone out there who has succeeded? Am I missing something ?
Thank youAttachments:

Name : platform-python
Version : 3.6.8
Release : 62.el8_10.rocky.02024-08-27 at 11:27 am #77012Alexander KovelenovStaffUnfortunately, the minimal Python version to run Verge3D is 3.7. The Rocky 8.10 release notes state that you have up to Python 3.12 available. Please install the recent version from the repos.
2024-08-27 at 3:06 pm #77027chlowdenParticipantI’m no rocky specialist but I have installed 3.12 but blender uses the system default 3.6. Changing the default 3.6 to 3.12 breaks the OS, from I can read.
Let me try on a mac …2024-08-27 at 3:49 pm #77028chlowdenParticipantIt works fine on a mac … so I’m good. Thank you

2024-11-18 at 7:53 pm #78903swatchybCustomerHi @alexander-kovelenov
I have a similar problem on Win11 after many tries. I have installed Blender 4.2.3 LTS (while 4.0 is still also installed) and Verge 4.8. I added the local repository pointing to C:\Users\name\verge3d_blender\addons\ and refreshed but the Verge extension does not appear in either the installed or available. The addons folder has two sub folders .blender.ext (which is empty) and verge3d that has 15 files and two folders. Nothing appears in the Add-ons tab either.
Any help would be appreciated.2024-11-19 at 7:36 am #78921Yuri KovelenovStaff2024-11-19 at 11:07 am #78932kdvParticipantI added the local repository pointing to C:\Users\name\verge3d_blender\addons\ and refreshed but the Verge extension does not appear
you should change the variable
ROOT_DIR
inside __init__.py to make it work. smth likeROOT_DIR = 'C:\Users\name\verge3d_blender'
Puzzles and JS coding. Fast and expensive.
If you don’t see the meaning in something it primarily means that you just don’t see it but not the absence of the meaning at all.
