If you encounter this error, please check if you have installed only D5 Converter but have not installed D5 Render.

The D5 Converter is a bridge plugin between the modeling software and the D5 Render. If you want the run the plugin, please install D5 Render first.

If you want to download D5 Render, please go to the official website.
