2024 Blender exporter update for Blender 4.2+

The 2020 Blender exporter GitHub - AsoboStudio/Microsoft-Flight-Simulator-2020-glTF-Blender-IO got an update so it can be used with Blender versions 4.2.X and 4.5.Y. But, that can’t export from Blender to the 2024 sim. So, will the 2024 exporter be updated to support newer Blender versions?

I am going to second this request,
I need to export for 2024 and want to use a newer blender version than 3.3, is there any update avaialble?

The FS2024 blender exporter was already supporting Blender 3.6 LTS according to it’s docs.

Hopefully it will also be updated to support 4.2 and 4.5 LTS in the next SDK update.

The 2024 exporter does work with 4.2LTS, but I agree and hope that it will be updated to 4.5LTS soon.

It might work, but the docs actually do say “These plugins are only compatible with Blender 3.3.x LTS and 3.6.x LTS. Other versions are not supported”. I personally would like to get an official “yep, 4.whatever is supported, go nuts” before switching.

Fair enough!

They do mention “Blender: Update plugin for 4.2 LTS” in the 1.2.2 SDK changelog, but it would be a good idea to update the docs to match.

FYI this thread if using 4.2+ with the exporter.

Hello,

We do support Blender 4.2LTS, the documentation will be updated. As for blender 4.5LTS it’s a work in progress on our side for 2024.

Thank you

And by “We do support Blender 4.2LTS” does that include exporting to 2024 or only 2020?
