I used one from an older version

For the people that struggle, i just uploaded the file.

How to get the file into Blender:
1. Go into User Preferences
2. Add-ons
3. Install from file
4. Find the file of where you saved it
5. Then you can check the addon
6. and then save user preferences

How to export jm:
1. Click the thing u want to make a jm for, for example a swingarm
2. Then you go into Files
3. Export - MX Simulator Model (.jm)

No problem, ive struggled with this aswell.

When I click install addon nothing happens. I see the script and have it selected but when I click "install addon from file" it takes me back to the main addons screen and I don't see the addon to tick the box.

Could this be updated to Blender 2.80 please?

Looks like 2.8 broke the script. Can we please get an updated one from you JLV?

Will do.

I have the script working with 2.80 with one hitch. While Blender still has a specular_color field in its material structure, I can't figure out how to set it from inside Blender. It seems to default to 1,1,1 with no way to change it. Is that a big deal?

I believe Blender got rid of their traditional material setup, and transitioned into strictly using node setups. I mentioned a while back about using their new node the "Principled BSDF" shader to create materials for sim. Is it possible to switch over to that?

If defaulting to 1,1,1 for the specular value means our materials will look something like this for metal, then yes it definitely a big deal.
