Could they please fix this, I was working on a project, and would really love to stick to Blender 4.0, its causing me a headache, i thought i could use, rigify, but mixamo's offers a faster workflow for me. Even when installing it takes longer and halts for some reason now, and i have to click to the side or resize the window to show the addon, when i proceed to activate it, the error pops up.

please @Adobe fix this.

Tried doing this on 2 computers, thought my Educational work computer had blocked it, but nope. Same exact error message on my home computer. Come on Adobe, we're looking to do this on our tech classes but now have to look outside Adobe. Very disappointing

Managed to solve it

Pasted the error text in Chat GPT and it worked.

Used option 3 and tweaked the code a bit.

Found the file:

Or by command line using cd:

/Users/aaronbl/Library/Application Support/Blender/4.0/scripts/addons

And using teh command "open ." to openning it on finder.

Opened the file in VS Code. Copied all the code there and give it to chat GPT....

Here is the whole conversation: https://chat.openai.com/share/4ca619f5-aecf-4ab5-a4fb-5357fb657255

Then copied and pasted the code he gave me, pressed command + s to save, went to blender and all worked fine. Cheers

it is working very well!

the fix is easy:

Go to the file ".../Blender/4.0/scripts/addons/mixamo_rig/lib/version.py"
Line 7 is `_char = bpy.app.version_char`
Replace it with `_char = getattr(bpy.app, 'version_char', '')`
save and enable addon.

This worked like a charm. Nisim gave the info if you already had it installed after an update. If you're downloading it fresh:

Download the plugin
Extract the ZIP
Go into the folders to 'mixamo_rig/lib/version.py'
Replace line 7 with '_char = bpy.app.version_char', so that it fetches the new version number properly
Save the file, and ZIP the mixamo_rig folder again. Then just add it in Blender as you would any other plugin.

Quick fix, and works great.
