Settings not loaded properly

alfredorusso-github opened this issue · comments

There is a bug that prevents changing the settings in MakeHuman. The bug is related to an error that occurs when MakeHuman is started, which prevents the settings from being correctly loaded. As a result, the default settings are created and utilized every time, and some plugins cannot be activated.

This issue needs to be addressed in order to enable changing the settings and activating all plugins.

The error is caused by the parseINI method in the /makehuman/lib/inifile.py file. In this method, json.loads(s, encoding='utf-8') is used. However, since Python 3.9, the encoding keyword argument is deprecated and it is no longer necessary to specify the encoding type. The method itself calls detect_encoding(), which is able to recognize the input encoding.

The solution for the bug that worked for me is the following:
inifile.zip
