‘nonetype’ object has no attribute ‘name’ (Collada Export 2.49b)

Details:

When trying to export a rigged mesh from Blender 2.49b as Collada-1.4.1 (.dae), i get a python error:

‘nonetype’ object has no attribute ‘name’ (Collada Export 2.49b)

Answer:

The problem is related to the material assignments. Your Object refers to a material which actually does (no longer) exist in your blend file. It is unclear how this situation can happen. It may be an error in the Jass-Library (if you created your character from the character templates in it).

You can fix the problem as follows:

  • go to object mode
  • locate the material panel in the edit button section
  • Remove all material indexes from the object by pressing the “delete” butto until The material index list contains “0 Mat 0″, see image on the right.
  • go to the material section and add/create the materials you need.

Now you can retry the export. It should work now.

 

Hints:

If someone can tell me a way how to reproduce this problem, i will try to fix it. Please send a Notecard to “Gaia Clary” in second Life or an email to mailto:gaia.clary@machinimatrix.org
