Question: are Python Routes still functional with Blender 4.0.1?

[bbible3]

I think I am missing something here, as even the default Python based route over MIDI doesn't seem to work. I may be doing something wrong, though. Everything works great when not enabling the Python mode, but I would really like to be able to use my MIDI controller to only affect the currently selected object and as best I can tell this is only doable with the Python mode. Even the default values for context and eval don't do anything. This might be some update to the Blender Python API but I am unable to find anything that works as of yet.

Thanks!

Have the same question here

I have Blender 4.1.0 now and I haven't been able to activate the addon. It 'installs' but when I check it to activate it, Blender quits. So I guess there has to be something to be adapted for the 4.x API.

reason it quits, at least from my playing with the addon trying to get it to work, its because RTMidi isn't loading correctly and reports a missing module

What module is missing?

Good news, It is still working in 4.2 LTS, you have to manually download and install latest RTmidi.

Any chance you could elaborate on the process of doing this for a numbnuts like me? Do you mean install RTmidi using Windows Command Prompt or doing it using the Blender Python Console?

I guess it depends on what instance of python Blender is using. On my case in Linux, it had to be done on a system level (using a console outside Blender). But there is a Linux version of Blender with everything packaged (including python). In that case I would try using the python console in the program.
