Add-on does not recognize any Ogre Mesh Tool Binaries

[PancakeMechanic]

System Information

• Ogre Version: N/A
• Operating System / Platform: Linux Mint 21.3 MATE
• Blender Version: 4.1.1

Detailed description

Whenever I try to import a .mesh file the import fails and states that it cannot find the binaries. I have already pointed the addon to the folder where the binaries, including their .so shared library file, are installed. I can run each of the binaries fine in the terminal, but for some reason the addon fails to run any of the binary executables.

blender2ogre.log

I cannot find the blender2ogre.log but I do have the error message from the Blender console

# Blender Import Script:

import bpy
bpy.ops.ogre.import_mesh(
  filepath='/home/<myusername>/Documents/0_CAD_Models/RoR-Character/character.mesh', 
)

  ERRORS:
    - Cannot find suitable OgreXMLConverter or OgreMeshTool executable.Import XML mesh - does NOT automatically convert .mesh to .xml file. You MUST run converter on the mesh manually.
    - Failed to convert .mesh file to .xml
  WARNINGS:
    - Cannot find suitable OgreXMLConverter or OgreMeshTool executable, binary mesh files won't be generated

Extended Report:

This is strange since the shared library is in the same folder.

OgreXMLConverter.log or OgreMeshTool.log

N/A Because it the addon does not recognize the binaries.

can you run the tools from your home folder? e.g.

cd /home/<myusername>/
OgreMeshTools/OgreXMLConverter

edit: found a archive of orgecommandtools here: https://forum.rigsofrods.org/resources/ogre-command-line-tools.967/

[paroj]

the ogre snap comes with the command line tools: https://snapcraft.io/ogre

it works when i set the location of ORGE_XML_CONVERTER to a .exe file and use frogging family's wine-tkg to load 🤔
