Question

Hello! For the past few months I've been facing a error while trying to use the addon and creating a control rig, I already tried all types of FBX and DAE formats while downloading my rigged model from the Mixamo site, I thought this mistake would get fixed, but it didn't, here's my error message:

I would appreciate any help with this, Mixamo has been really help to me in the past, and this is a big roadblock for me in Blender now.

The Mixamo control rig add-on might have some compatibility issues with the Blender version (3.0) you are using. If you can try going back to Blender 2.93 or earlier, that might help address some of this. We haven't been made any updates yet to latest plugin for Blender.

Is there a timeline on this? Pose Library is added to Blender 3.0 and to be able to use it would be so good but Mixamo addon doesn't work on Blender 3.0. The update will be done in a near future or there is nothing certain about it?

Hi Fatih5CD9,

 

Good news - we have an update to the Mixamo Blender plugin. This will be posted and shared on the announcement page of this forum shortly. Stay tuned!

have you got a copy of this model you can share for testing?

 

anyway the error will be because of file format i.e, Fbx type 3 got auto-converted to Fbx type 4 and you need to go back to a base format like wavefront Obj to repair the mistakes

 

p.s, don't hold your breath waiting for Adobe to fix anything at their end

This error occurs because of the changes in Blender 3.0 Python API. custom_shape_scale is being changed to custom_shape_scale_xyz for example. An update is needed for the addon, otherwise, it just simply doesn't work in Blender 3.0

To add to this, to detail, the control rig comes out, but the right arm of the model does not get control rigs, and some controls do not work on the sides with it.
Update- Tried using the 0.18 version, and more controllers were created, but the right arm continues not to be rigged.

Legs also do not get rigged, but spine bones do, left arm, head and neck too.
