I could install the IMVU toolkit in Blender but after clicking on Append attachment file, append clothing file or any file from toolkit, Blender closes automatically. Any solution for this?

@Neneko6 DO NOT UNZIP/UNPACK the zip file, it MUST be installed intact. Aside from what @Drosselmeyer said, see here for 4.2 LTS https://www.katsbits.com/codex/imvu-studio-toolkit/#blender-42-lts-installation

Hmm. Okay, I am going to need you to do some debugging for me ;)

Can you do the following:

Open Blender 4.2.3
Select the 'Scripting' tab from the main menu bar
Click the 'Open Text' button (folder icon above the main script window)
In the top navigation field in the in dialog box enter the following: "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.2\scripts\addons"
- This should navigate to the location of the toolkit script
- It may also prompt you with "Create a new directory?" If so, click 'Cancel'
In the file list you should see the file 'IMVU_Studio_Toolkit.py'
- Select it and click 'Open Text'
- You should now see the script open in the main script window
Click in the 3d view window (top left) and press 'n' and open IMVU Studio Toolkit from the side pop-out
Near the top of the script in the main script window there is line 5: "version": (1, 1, 4),
- change the 4 to a 5: "version": (1, 1, 5),
Click on the 'Run Script' button at the at the top of the main script window (right arrow "play" button)
- The version displayed in IMVU Studio Toolkit should change from 1.1.4 to "DEV VERSION" and 1.1.5 should be displayed below that. This just confirms that we are running the version of the script from the editor.
Now click 'Append Attachment'
- Hopefully there are some useful errors/output in the Console windows (lower left). If so, post that here or a screen shot of the console output

Thanks for you help!

After clicking on append attachment, Blender completely closes. Let me see if I can update it

If you open the Blender Console (Window > Toggle System Console) before running the Toolkit what do you see there after clicking Append Attachment? Any errors? FYI, I just updated Blender from 4.2 LTS to 4.2.3 LTS and the Toolkit is working for me. I did notice that the first time I did an Append Attachment it took a while before the scene was updated, but it did work. Since that first run Toolkit is running fine.

No. I didn't.

I tried with an unzipped version but only the python file was getting installed so used the unzipped version.

@Neneko6, Did you unzip the IMVU-Studio-Toolkit-Blender3.3LTS-1.1.4.zip installer file?
