Gear desappeared...

Post by hidalgo » 19 Mar 2014, 12:43

Hello people,

i have a problem, i had several versions of xsi installed (starting from the 2011 till latest 2014), from first installation i had gear (1.1.0), today i have decided to uninstall all the old xsi versions to leave me only with the 2014 and kaboom, gear its gone, even after uninstalling abd reinstalling the addon it doesnt showup anymore on my top bar, anybody can suggest what to do to fix it?

Thanks

First things that come to mind:

-Check if python works at all (go to script editor and see if python is listed in the drop down menu).
-Check File>Plug-in Manager if GEAR is installed.

If you're sure it is installed, you could try issuing the following Python command through scripting:

Code: Select all

gear.reloadModule()
Gear sometimes "forgets" to load all of its modules, which can result in all sorts of fun... 8-}
Not sure in gear_mc is still plagued by this, though.
Stay safe, sane & healthy!
