Datasmith + Source build

Hi,

Let me start by saying i searched for the answer and looked through pages of results and didn’t see anything that resolved my issue.

I am using a source build ue4.24.3. I have datasmith c4d importer enabled, restarted (even restarted the computer with my fingers crossed hoping that would resolve the issue). I cross checked with a non-source build to see if datasmith is working and it is. I tried with another source build and Im having the same issue.

TL;DR:
I can’t import c4d (cinema4d) files into a source build of ue 4.24.3. The c4d files are not listed in the file explorer window of the datasmith importer

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Found documentation re: datasmith c4d and source builds. Its not supported, but it may be possible if I can acquire the required software
