Hi,

I have Armory setup in Blender 4.0 (available at https://builder.blender.org/download/daily/ ). However I see nothing in Properties - Render - Armory Player when following the Armory setup guide. Console output is …

The above is after hitting F5.

Would love to get Armory working on my Mac M1 however I do have a Linux and a Windows system so might have to fall back to those.

Any help appreciated !

Tried on Linux Kubuntu. Still no joy …

Hi, the error from your first post is caused by the fact that you were using Blender 4.0, but Armory only supports the current LTS version (currently, 3.6 LTS), otherwise it would be difficult to keep up with the pace of Blender development.

The second error is related to Blender’s Python environment, for some reason the numpy module which—at least on Windows—usually comes bundled with Blender is missing. Maybe Blender handles things differently on Linux, there should be plenty of information about this on the internet (also about the No module named 'numpy' error message). If Blender uses the system’s Python installation, you can probably fix this by installing numpy 1.23.5 (that’s the numpy version used by Blender 3.6 LTS).

Hi. Thanks. I’ll look into the Numpy error. Are you saying Armory cannot work with Blender 4 ? If so that is frustrating as Blender 3.6.0 on the Mac crashes all the time. However if I can fix the Numpy error I guess I might be able to get it going on Linux

Are you saying Armory cannot work with Blender 4 ?

At the moment, yes. Once a new LTS version is released, we will also update Armory to support that version. Most of the time, using slightly older/newer Blender versions also works since Blender’s Python API is quite stable, but apparently 4.0 is an exception to that . But using any other version than the LTS versions for Armory isn’t recommended anyways for that reason, and bugs that happen due to using an unsupported Blender version won’t be fixed.

The situation with Armory on MacOS is a bit difficult anyways since the main debug target for Armory (“Krom”) seems to not work correctly on Mac: https://github.com/armory3d/armorcore/issues/44.
