Pymol Session Error

[KJ]

This seems like a great add-on for blender. However I am getting an error when attempting to import .pse files.

I am using pymol, blender 2.80, blendmol 1.1 on Windows 10.

I recieve the following error in the pymol console:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\ProgramData\PyMOL\lib\site-packages\pymol\parsing.py", line 483, in run
run_(path, ns_pymol, ns_pymol)
File "C:\ProgramData\PyMOL\lib\site-packages\pymol\parsing.py", line 532, in run_file
execfile(file,global_ns,local_ns)
File "C:\ProgramData\PyMOL\lib\site-packages\pymol\parsing.py", line 526, in execfile
co = compile(pi.file_read(filename), filename, ‘exec’)
File "C:\Users\KJ\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpx715d2gk\render.py", line 24
cmd.load("C:\Users\KJ\Documents\Workstation Software\blendmol-1_1\blendmol-1_1\examples\pymol-files\session.pse")
^
SyntaxError: (unicode error) ‘unicodeescape’ codec can’t decode bytes in position 2-3: truncated \UXXXXXXXX escape

Would appreciate any help.

Hi KJ. Much thanks for your interest in Blendmol. PyMol import on Blender 2.8 is currently broken because of a Blender Bug in
the X3D importer. Preliminary tests with Blender 2.81 alpha suggest this Blender bug will soon be fixed. Sorry for any inconvenience.

VMD should still work, and PyMol should work using older BlendMol versions on Blender 2.79. All the best.
