Hello,
I’m having some issues here when trying to export Metahuman to Maya. I didn’t have these problems before, but after formatting and reinstalling the system, the problems appeared.
I’ve installed two versions of Maya here - 2022 and 2023. Everything is running fine, PyMel was installed for both versions, all the paths standard, so shouldn’t have any issues.
I’ve installed Bridge and installed the plugin for Maya integration. Downloaded the Metahuman assets in the same folders/structures as before the formatting, so the .dna files would be in the same place.
When I try to open a saved scene with the Metahuman character, errors regarding the plugin prevents the rig to work properly. The message in script editor is as follows:
RuntimeError: file <maya console> line 1: Plug-in, "embeddedRL4", was not found on MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH.
I assume the plugin was not installed properly, or it was installed in a place where the environment variable was not set.
When trying to export the Metahuman character from Bridge to Maya, errors happen in Bridge. They are:
Error: Could not send data over port 13291
The bridge.log showed the following issues:
{"level":"info","message":"app-progress-hide","timestamp":"2022-11-08T17:21:54.341Z"}

{"level":"info","message":"app-progress-hide","timestamp":"2022-11-08T17:22:08.459Z"}
Is there any solution for the problem? Is there a manual workaround to install the plugin, or a way to make it work properly?
Thank you!
