Bug description: When trying to export our Kodiak 900 using the multi-exporter (3ds max 2024, FS2024 SDK) I am not getting a gltf. The message log indicates “export failed due to empty gltf”, but nothing is generated at all.

I have modified the layers so that the tail part uses the same naming convention across layers, but it still won’t export. If I export through the “hierarchy” tab I get the files.

I have also been able to normally export our Airvan in 2024 without issue, even though it doesn’t follow the layer structure demonstrated in the DA62 sample.

UPDATE
When ticking “Export hidden objects” I get a good export. The fact that 3ds max hides the parts I want to export indicates there is a problem with my scene setup. If you can point me in the right direction to fix it it will be great.

Hello @SWS-AlexVletsas,

I asked a dev about this, and I’m afraid there’s not much we can do, as it appears to be more of an issue with 3ds Max itself :confused:

Maybe try to see if you have the same issue when using a different max version ?

Regards,
Boris
