Issue:
I am currently having an issue with setting up Python 3.12.3 with the Dynamixel SDK.
I am using the following videos as reference:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHnrLVZEGi4 → Part 1
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZmueNctY0s&t=319s → Part 2
I’ve tried to troubleshoot this issue with two versions of the SDK. I have originally downloaded the Dynamixel SDK v3.7.31 from the Dynamixel webpage but referring to the part 1 video, the user downloads the Dynamixel SDK - Master which is the v3.7.51 from the GitHub.
Next I downloaded the latest version of Python 3.12.3 from their website. I also downloaded the Python 3.12 app from the native Windows 11 app store.
This is where I encountered my first error [Resolved]:
importerror "No Module named Setuptools" → when trying to run setup.py install when trying to run in command prompt
Solution ⇒ python -m pip install -U pip setuptools

Second Error [Unresolved]:
I’ve tried to run a test code to see if it would work, however, it’s telling me that I don’t have the Dynamixel SDK. However, looking at my folders, it is there. I believe that I can’t run any sample codes since I haven’t resolved the setup.py issue.
