Unreal Engine 5.5 + Datasmith support Dassault Systemes CATIA V5_6 R2024

Development Pipeline & Plugins

Hi UE community,
I’m using UE 5.5 for technical visualization, and normally my original CAD files are from Dassault Systèmes CATIA V5. Recently I’ve updated my CATIA version to V5_6 R2024 and it seems that Datasmith currently supports up to V5_6 R2023.
This cause a huge impact on my pipeline, because the Datasmith importer cannot tessellate the CAD files from the new release.

Do you know any walkaround or maybe when the Datasmith importer will support the new versions from CATIA software?

Best regards

Which version of 5.5 are you using?
UE 5.5.4 should have the version of the library that can read v5_6 R2024 files.
If it is what you are using and it is still not working, it would be nice if you could provide a sample CAD file for us to test.
