RDC file issues

Support Technical Support

Let me give a rundown of what I’m doing. So I’m using Blender 4.2, RenderDoc 1.34, MapsModelImporter 0.7. I used RenderDoc to capture from PCSX2 and it looks fine and everything in there, shows all geometry and textures I want. I saved the capture and it was an rdc file. I installed the mapsmodelsimporter add on but when I try to import I get an error “invalid rdc capture file” . I’ve tried using different versions of renderdoc and the addon and no luck. Any suggestions would be helpful

It says right in the Requirements that Blender 4.1 is needed, not 4.2.
They are very specific about what version of Blender, Render-doc, and Chrome have to be used together…

still no luck. I tried blender 4.1, renderdoc 1.19, mapsmodelimporter 0.5

Error: Failed to load the RenderDoc Module.
Please report to MapsModelsImporter developers providing the full console log with debug information.
First turn on debug output by activating the “Debug Info”-checkbox under Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > MapsModelsImporter
On Windows systems console log is accessible in Windows > Toggle System Console (right click to copy).
On Linux systems you have to run Blender from the console to get the debug output

Error: Failed to load the RenderDoc Module. It however seems to exist.
This might be due to one of the following reasons:

  • Your Blender version uses another version of python than used to build the RenderDoc Module
  • An additional file required by the RenderDoc Module is missing (i.E. renderdoc.dll)
  • Something completely different

Remember, you must use exactly the same version of python to load the RenderDoc Module as was used to build it.

What version was used to build it?

I mean I downloaded the zip from their website, so not sure. Surely I’m not expected to compile the code using a different version of python right?
