Hi,
I would like to import a VRML 2.0 file (just to export this in other extension), but I have this error :

seems to be a bug in the script

It occurs if the VRML file is gzip-compressed (*.wrz)
Unpack the inside *.wrl, e.g. using 7-Zip and try to load that one.

I suffer from the same problem, with the same error message.
The file that I am trying to import ist not gzipped, it is in *.wrl format.
Any news on this one? I desperately need the import function. I am completely new to the world of blender. I know a bit of python (although 2.x, and more data analysis related, no big projects code experience), but I have not the slightest Idea on where to start. If somebody can point me in the right direction or tell me how I can help, I would be glad.
best, Georg

also 2.65. with the thought that the file I am actually trying to read might be corrupted, I also tested some file from the internet with the same error. Please give me the link to yours, so we test the same file (I forgot mine ... )
best, georg
