System Information
Operating system: Win 11

Blender Version: 4.3 Beta - both of the latest versions
Add-on Version: 1.6.4

Short description of error
Brush tools in brush pie menu stopped working in the latest two blender versions from Nov 3rd and 5th

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
When using the Sculpting Pie, I can select all brushes in the lower brush picker, but any of the tools like grab, no longer work and produce an error. Below is the error.

First image shows all tools that give a similar error.

The error. This tool was working fine before a recent update of the 3D pie addon within the extensions window.

One more point... below is the error from the latest beta version 5c880a52916e, and below that is the folder without the files the error shows the addon is looking for.

I am thinking the script should now be looking in the essentials_brushes-mesh_sculpt.blend instead of the essentials_brushes.blend file when looking for sculpting brushes. I assume they broke all this out to help with brush organization and management. As you can see in the list of blend files in the directory, there is a blend file for each mode and tool type so each different tool might need to be changed to reference the correct asset.

I hope this helps.

I changed the hard coded brush blend file name in line 187 of the pie_sculpt_brush_seect.py to essentials_brushes-mesh_sculpt.blend, locally, and it worked flawlessly in 4.3. I am positive this would be the same for all other pie menu scripts that refer to that essentials_brushes.blend file that no longer exists. I hope this helps. For now, I will keep my local version out of sync so it works.

What is there currently:
