[SOLVED] Skinning editor doesn't show sprites and gives multiple errors (is blank)
I'm trying to add a 2D character to my project. I've made the character in Photoshop, installed the following packages (which are required): 2D Animation, 2D IK and 2D PSB Importer. The character gets imported well, the editor recognizes it, the Sprite Editor shows it well and has split it up well. But the moment I switch to Skinning Editor, the sprite disappears from the Skinning Editor window and my console is suddenly flooded with a bunch of errors which are shown in the attached photo.
I can't find any answers online because apparently no one else has encountered this problem.
Any ideas on how to fix this? The Photoshop file is okay and made well, all parts are in different layers and stuff. Everything is great until I open Skinning Editor. If I switch back to the Sprite Editor after that, the Sprite Editor won't show it anymore. I'd have to close it and open it again. But the Skinning Editor just does not get fixed.
Please help! I'm getting desperate!

I found the reason. I live in a country blocked by USA, so whenever I wanted to download packages, it wouldn't show me any. My connection was blocked. So I had to use a VPN to download the packages, and when downloading 2D Animations, the installer wouldn't finish until I disconnected VPN, which probably resulted in some files not being downloaded or installed correctly. Even though the package manager said that the package was installed.
Today however, I don't know why, I managed to see the packages without a VPN, and so I redownloaded 2D Animations (and PSD Importer) and it worked.
So, if you're having my problem too, install the packages without VPN.
I'm posting this answer here so that if anyone else ever finds himself in my situation, they'd have an answer. Because as I mentioned before, I searched every part of the internet but no one had an answer because no one else had encountered this problem. Now they do.
