Error: Unable to Download Textures and Sprites

Overview

This issue has been reported on Inksmoto 0.7.0 only. If you get this error, when you try to get new sprites and textures:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "refreshMenu.py", line 273, in <module>
   run()
 File "refreshMenu.py", line 269, in run
   ext.affect()
 File "/Volumes/Extra Hard Drive Space/Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/extensions/inksmoto/inkex.py", line 154, in affect
   self.effect()
 File "/Volumes/Extra Hard Drive Space/Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/extensions/inksmoto/xmotoExtension.py", line 73, in effect
   if self.effectHook() == True:
 File "refreshMenu.py", line 118, in effectHook
   self.getXmlFromTheWeb()
 File "refreshMenu.py", line 96, in getXmlFromTheWeb
   localXmlFile = open(localXmlFilename, 'wb')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/WeatherGameMan97/.config/inkscape/extensions/inksmoto/listAvailableElements.xml'

This means that the file "listAvailableElements.xml" is not in the .config folder.

Solution

To make it work simply open the extracted extensions directory and look for a folder called "inksmoto", copy that folder and paste it into the .config folder. Here is the path that you want your inksmoto folder to be in.

Windows: /Your username/Roaming/inkscape/.config/extensions

Mac OS X: /Users/Your username/.config/inkscape/extensions

Linux: usr/.config/inkscape/extensions

Now, downloading textures and sprites should work now. If you still get problems, come by to the X-Moto network, and we will get you help.

You should get this if you did it correctly:

Nothing new from the Internet.
X-Moto textures/sprites list not updated.
0 new images downloaded.

Hope this guide helps!!
