Update Blender Import Libraries #1037

Open Hayden-Fluff opened 4 years ago

Hayden-Fluff commented 4 years ago

With the recent release of Blender 2.9, more people are using 2.8+ for their files, and when they do, they have to define their own Blender install directory to use their project files, or else Neos fails to import .blend files. If the libraries Neos uses for importing .blend files could be updated, this could help to alleviate this issue.

I'm sorry, but unfortunately Assimp doesn't support Blender 2.8 properly yet, so updating it won't help. See the issue here: https://github.com/assimp/assimp/issues/2559

It only offers rudimentary Blender support anyways, so I'd still strongly recommend installing Blender in the right directory so it gets used to import the files instead, you will achieve much better compatibility that way.

Can you test with 2021.1.26.1308? I updated Assimp to latest version from master, not sure how it handles those models now.
