Dear Unreal-Community,
when I import u.datasmith files via the file import (no direct link), my Unreal-Engine freezes during the mesh and asset creation process (85%). Although as I noticed while trying different u.datasmith files its not a real freeze, UE5 says no feedback/no response in the Task-Manager and seems to be inactive in the details-tab of the Task-Manager, but when i wait long(!) enough the import is successful.
My Imported files are very large cause these are from some big architecture projects. That is the reason for the long import duration - no Problem here.
When I import over the Dataprep-Method i dont have this Problem and I can wittness the process.
I dont mind the time it takes for the import, but i would like to know if my programm is really crashed or just working hard for me, importing all assets and meshes.
So my issue is only the feedback which i get during import - when it says its stuck, has no response and is inactive but in reality it is not, thats misleading.
So the problem is you don´t know if you should wait it out or force the termination of the task/process, when to restart or if the file is corrupted.
This is only a small issue but perhaps there is a simple fix and you can implement it in a future Update.
Thanks in advance,
with kind regards
R.S.
