Hello,
UE 5.4.4:
I import Rhino .3dm models using a dataprep asset. I end up with a map holding the imported objects and a “datasmith scene” actor. The map holding the imported objects is automatically added to my persistent level as a sublevel. All good.
Now with the persistent level active I delete some static mesh actors from the sublevel. But then I want to restore the deleted SMA’s from the dataprep import (= bring back the original import), but no matter what I do (even re-import the whole source file) does not bring the deleted actors back into the scene. Not the persistent level, not the import map. I still see them in the content browser, but they never get re-spawned.
Also, all of the datasmith documentation does not seem to apply to the current version of datasmith. There is no option to “reimport” or “re-spawn deleted actors” in the current version any more.
Can anyone help?
Where is up to date documentation for datasmith?
