blender 3 support about blender-artnet HOT 7 OPEN

There is a Problem with the dots in the folder name. Dots look like file-extension. But if you download the 1.6.5 version of the plugin the folder is called "blender-artnet-1.6.5".
It works if you download the master branch where the folder is called "blender-artnet-master".

@BryanCrotaz that seems to be an issue in all versions. what can I do to fix that?

from blender-artnet.

Found a workaround:

1. install zip
2. rename addon folder in "%appdata%/... /scripts" (see error message) to "blender-artnet-1"
3. Activate script

Works just for the first install. You need to removs it for reinstalling.

Don't know why this would be but anyone who can find a solution and submit a PR, I'd happily accept it into the repo

@fgiering Blender dev says it works ok for them - please give explicit reproduction steps at https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/106408

Oh. Thanks. Wouldn't it be better, if you test and reproduce it yourself before forwarding?
Its about the folder IN the zip file. Thats the folder blender copies to the "scripts" folder and then cant read the content cause of the dot.
