Description

I told Armor paint where blender application is located in my OPT folder and when I select import for the project it crashes right away.

Also tried moving the blender program to my desktop to make sure it was not a permissions probolem, directed armor paint to it, and still nope.

Also tried a more simple project (default cube) but it still crashes.

I am using a 1050 TI with the 580 driver
Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon 64-bit
6.17.0-22-generic Kernal
AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor × 6 CPU
Linux Vulkan Render

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Blender project import on the reported Linux Mint, Vulkan, and NVIDIA 1050 Ti setup, using both the original and default-cube projects. Capture the crash output and compare the import path behavior; done means both projects import without ArmorPaint crashing.
