Add-on missing

Question

Hi,

I was looking for some inserts and found KIT OPS and I installed it as I would install any other add-on. Go to Preferences - Add-ons - Install - choose the zip file and then check the box for it to make it active. In this case, after I did all of these steps, I got this message at the bottom and the add-on is nowhere to be found in the list. I also tried other add-ons just to check and the situation is similar.

    I wouldn't know, I've never used that. But I found the documentation and at page 14 or so it's talking about install and where to find it, how to use it, etc:

    YEs, I saw it too. It doesn't work. I also watched the video where he does just that.

    Never had an issue like this before.

    I just tried with another add-on and it works. So it's something to do with Kit Ops.

    Report it in the help desk, it may be a bug. Have you tired it in a different version of Blender? Perhaps go back a version or two of Blender? Maybe you have a very new Blender and they still haven't updated the addon yet?

    Tried it, thanks Omar. I will do that.

    Hey Roxana,

    Did you get the right Addon? It looks like you got Inserts.zip, I found this site:

    and that led me to this (I only downloaded the green version):

    KitOps.png

    and it works just fine in 3.5:

    You are absolutely right! Thank you, thank you

    So the wrong zip was being installed? But was it a random zip or a zip that comes with the addon?

  • Roxana Moise-Dan(ox) replied

    It seems I downloaded a kpack and not an addon. What I should've done was download the Kitops and in the add-on's preferences menu change the folder with the one where I unzipped the inserts.
