Hello
I was wanting to make a kart but when i try to install all the addons shown here:
http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/Ins ... he_tools_2 I can't get stk_panel.py to install through blender. All the others are fine apart from this one. I would really like some help with this.
Thanks
Ryan

Can you describe the problem you are experiencing? Did you follow the instructions and did you copy the stkdata folder as indicated? Is there any output in the Blender console?

"and requires Blender 2.59 or better."
This maybe should be written as "2.59 to 2.6x", possibly your version is too new for the script. Try 2.62, if this doesnt work, 2.59. In any way you should state what version you tried it on. If this script is known to run properly, this will likely be the problem. Just guessing though, didn't try it myself.

this is not correct, the latest version of blender (2.65 at this time) is supported

Hey
Basically when I try to enable it by checking the box, nothing happens. All of the other plugins enabled just fine, but this one just sits there and ignores me.
I copies the SKData folder into the scripts folder along with the .py files
I am running version 2.62
In the console it says nothing except:
PYTHON INTERACTIVE CONSOLE 3.2.3 (default, Oct 19 2012, 20:08:46) [GCC 4.6.3]
Command History: Up/Down Arrow
Cursor: Left/Right Home/End
Remove: Backspace/Delete
Execute: Enter
Autocomplete: Ctrl+Space
Ctrl +/- Wheel: Zoom
Builtin Modules: bpy, bpy.data, bpy.ops, bpy.props, bpy.types, bpy.context, bpy.utils, bgl, blf, mathutils
Convenience Imports: from mathutils import *; from math import *

It's not that console we are referring to. What is being referred to is cmd.exe, also referred to as the "DOS command prompt"
the most likely cause is failing to copy the 'stkdata' folder to the right location

Ahhhh thank you, it was because the skdata folder was in the wrong place, i put it in the scripts folder instead of the addons folder
Thanks for all your help
