Hi I downloaded the Mixamo auto control rig from here,
Downloads | Academic Phoenix + (academicphoenixplus.com)
and I followed the instruction video to install it:
Quickly Rig your 3D Character in Maya and Maximo - YouTube
But it is not working, and here is the error scripts:
import MayaAutoControlRig
MayaAutoControlRig.UI.Main_UI.MIXAMO_AutoControlRig_UI()
# Error: ModuleNotFoundError: file C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2022\Python37\lib\site-packages\shiboken2\files.dir\shibokensupport\__feature__.py line 142: No module named 'Utils' #

Any ideas?

  I'm having the same problem as you, but what is shown is ImportError: file <maya console> line 8: No module named MayaAutoControlRig I don't know what to do.

  I installed the plug-in for my Maya step by step in YouTube according to the steps in the video, but when I clicked on it, I displayed importerror: File < Maya console > line 8: no module named Maya autocontrolrig I don't know why? What went wrong

This is because Maya 2022 uses Python 3 not Python 2 which the version of the script is written for. There is a chap here who explains how to get Maya to force a python 2 onload here using a switch - NB if you have other tools/

plugins/add-ons that are designed to run python3 - they will break if you for a python2 load im guessing - So i would create a copy of you Maya 2022 icon & apply the swtich to that keeping your originlal to run witihout the add-on if needed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4BJ-ThVToo

This is because maya 2022 uses Python 3 by default, you can run it will python 2 and the script should work just fine.

Hi, 

 

What version of the Maya plugin did you download? Please note that we currently don't have any support for control rigs in  Maya. The only support we have right now is for Blender.
