Blender exporter no longer finds LODs in subcollections

[WombiiActual]

Version: exporter 1.3.2

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: High

Bug description: The 2020 exporter objects tab, reload LODs button worked fine when having multiple models in a file, neatly sorted into a hierarchy with one collection for each model and subcollections for each LOD.

• The 2024 exporter reload LODs button in the best case fails to find the LODs and in the worst case just seemingly randomly shows a few of the collections in the objects tab.
• It also seems to have a max number of collections it will read?
• This makes it very inconvenient to have multiple models in the same blender file as the collections layout gets very chaotic.

This worked fine in the 2020 exporter:

The 2024 exporter gives this result: (it fails to find the subcollection LODs and only lists half the top level collections as it seems to have a maximum limit?)

What the 2024 exporter currently does: (as you can see it fails to find the subcollection LODs

Hello,

This should be fixed in the current blender MSFS2024 exporter plugin 2.3.1.
Can you confirm ?

As far as I can tell, the current version is exporter 1.3.2 from SDK 1.1.2.
I am running in blender 3.6.14.

It is exhibiting the problematic behavior for me, failing to recognize the LODs.

Hello,

A fix has been made in the flighting SU1 sdk core (1.2.2) with blender exporter version 2.3.2
If you install it, let me know if it fixes your issue.

Thank you,

Regards,
Boris

Looks like this is indeed fixed, from the quick tests I’ve done. Thank you!
