[Plugin] Get an error importing Thea Render

Support Technical Support
1

I installed 2.74 recently (through Steam). Deleted the non-Steam 2.73 prior to that, as not to accidentally cause any mishaps. Ran it, and hit the “Import Previous Configs” on start.

Everything appears to have been ported fine, except for Thea Render add-on. Here’s what gets thrown when I try to enable it:

I did try removing it, downloading its newest version from thearender.com, and installing that, but to no avail (in fact, this is the error that gets thrown to the newly installed version).

Any ideas on what went wrong and how to fix it?

Hi, not many Thea render user here.
I guess something change in Blender API and some older addons stop working.
May you can ask in Thea forum or DL older version of Blender as .zip file.
You can use several versions of Blender on your system.
I have about 5-6 different Blender version on my system.

this is my way to make thearender addon work. of cause, you should install your thea render correctly firstly

  1. make a file TheaConfig.txt under blender-2.76b-windows64\2.76\scripts\addons\TheaForBlender, which is simple (please modify according to your installation)

Application Path=E:\3d\render\TheaRender_v1.5.04.1413
Data Path=E:\3d\render\TheaRender_v1.5.04.1413\

  1. in thea_render_main.py, change
               if ls[0] == "Application\ Path":

to

               if ls[0] == "Application Path":

and change

               if ls[0] == "Data\ Path":

to

               if ls[0] == "Data Path":
