Datasmith Ribbon not responding in 3Ds Max 2022.

Hallo,

Since export as a unreal datasmith file is no longer available in the export dropdown menu, we have tried to export meshes via datasmith ribbon menu but it turned out it does not respond. Nothing happens when we try to synchronise, press connections, export, export as… In Unreal direct link import reports that No DirectLink source available is. What could be an issue here?

Thanks!

Hi, I also have this issue. Sorry, i don’t have a direct solution, but my workaround was to use a previous version of 3DS Max and use the Datasmith exporter compatible with that.

Do you have anything in your maxscript console log?

Can you try to reset the ribbon?
