Blender Errors: Version Compatibility
Diagnose and resolve Python API errors caused by Blender version differences. This skill activates when encountering AttributeError, ImportError, TypeError, KeyError, or RuntimeError in Blender scripts that result from using removed, renamed, or restructured APIs.
Dependency: blender-core-versions — version matrix and detection API.
1. Error Diagnosis Decision Tree
When a Blender Python script raises an error, follow this decision tree:
ERROR RECEIVED
│
├── AttributeError?
│ ├── "has no attribute 'bevel_weight'" → Blender 4.0+ mesh attribute migration [E-01]
│ ├── "has no attribute 'crease'" → Blender 4.0+ mesh attribute migration [E-01]
│ ├── "has no attribute 'use_auto_smooth'" → Blender 4.1+ auto-smooth removal [E-02]
