How do I get Blender and Cargo to detect `blender_bevy_toolkit` on Windows? about blender_bevy_toolkit

[bjorn3]

In regards to Blender, it doesn't seem to quite pick up this extension. So I suppose I have to manually install it? If I go to addons and click on the Install button, then if I navigate inside the extension's folder:

I think Blender requires you to load a zip of the extension.

In regards to cargo.toml file when I added this:

The path should be the path to the place where you cloned this repo, not the blender_bevy_toolkit subdirectory of it I think.

To get blender to detect it:
Copy the blender_bevy_toolkit subdirectory into blender/2.9x/scripts/addons folder.

To get cargo to recognize it:

I take that you have found a solution. If not, feel free to comment here and I'll re-open the issue

I basically ziped the folder blender_bevy_toolkit, then I went to blender, addons and installed it via the zip file, is that fine, right?

@Joe23232 Yup, that'll do exactly the same thing.
