Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello. This is happening to me as well. The addon doesn't work in Blender 4.0. If this can be fixed, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

nothing, tested and not work on version 4.1 ...
maybe he should archive this project and switch it to discontinued ...

It looks like you installed the original version. My fix - contained in pull request #35 - in not yet included. Since I don't know when yayanam will merge it - if ever - I cloned this original repository into my own here: https://github.com/gchriz/shortcut_VUr There my fix is included. Please try to install that one and let me know if it works.

But I downloaded your version and I still have this problem, because this version of yours was made on the 1st of this month. As shown in the screenshots below:


And it still kept generating errors :(

[gchriz]

Yes, the files in your screenshot seem to be the right ones. Which exact version of Blender are you using?

[joaozaguini]

Okay, now it works. Basically I threw the files inside it into the addons folder in scripts instead of installing the .zip directly from the Blender panel. For some reason this worked...

[gchriz]

It seems one need to restart Blender after installing the fixed version over the original one.
Otherwise the old version remains in Blenders memory and still fails.

I tried to add the unzipped folder directly into C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.0\scripts\addons, but it still produces the following error:

Did you really use the fixed version (https://github.com/gchriz/shortcut_VUr)?
And did you restart Blender after installing it?

Yes, the fixed version works well after installing from add-ons. Thanks.

Hello... Works correctly in Blender 4.2.0 and in UpBGE 0.42.0 ... with the correction of gchriz .

• also works with Blender 4.3.0
  many thanks ;)

[rickygai]

Blender 4.1.1
Shortcut VUr by Jayanam 0.9.2.0

It is confirmed after installed the fixed version, you have to restart Blender then there is no Python error messages anymore.

Thanks again.
