Screenshot not embedding into RobotFramework log file when used with SikuliX

I am unable to have my screenshot automatically embed itself into the RobotFramework log file after my test is run. I am using:

I am able to run my simple test and also have a report/log kicked out - along with a screenshot. The only trouble is that the screenshot is not visible in the log file when viewed in a browser (tried Chrome and FF).

This is my code as written in Sikuli:

runScript("""
robot

*** Settings ***
Library   Screenshot

*** Test Cases ***
Try to take a screenshot
   Take Screenshot   mypic   80%

""")

My folder where the logs are outputted looks like this after the test is run:

./log.html
./mypic_1.jpg
./output.xml
./report.html
./test2.robot

So far, all I have come across when searching the net is that the embed should 'just happen automatically' when using the 'Take Screenshot' keyword.

I have not tried this scenario with RobotFramework by itself - I think that may be my next step, but hoped someone would have an easy solution since I am wanting to use these two packages together. I am wanting to leverage Sikuli to help with my GUI intensive tests and RF for its' reporting and screenshotting capability.

Even though the comment made by temp temp didn't solve my issue right away, it did put me on the right track. After copying over the pip installed version of RF as mentioned in the comment, I removed the RF JAR file from my Extensions folder (not even sure why I tried this). Once I removed the JAR file, the image started embedding itself in the log. So it seems the combination of the RF version included with Sikuli combined with the RF JAR file was causing my issue.

I also had a similar problem with Sikurix 1.1.4 (with RF 3.0.0) When overwriting the Robot directory of Robot Framework 3.0.4 in "C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\Sikulix\Lib\robot", images are now embedded in Log.html.
