Unnamed subobjects cause crash when exporting to Collada #7

Open TRBlount opened 8 years ago

Hades was attempting to export a model to DAE and PCS2 kept crashing. I did some checking and found two unnamed subobjects in the POF (nighthawk.pof from BP). Giving these subobjects names stopped the crash. I think we should make PCS2 auto assign names based on the parent subobject during export to avoid this. Any other suggestions?

Are unnamed subobjects something that should be allowed in the first place? I wonder if it would be better to warn the user of unnamed subobjects when a file is opened and prevent export without fixing the problem. Then maybe an 'auto-repair' feature could be presented, but I feel like the user should be notified and given a chance to manually fix the problem.

That is also an option. It would certainly help, especially since it's not able to be ascertained a glance. Just something to think about.
