Meshes disappearing when making prefab

Bo Adam 2 years ago in CADLink • updated 2 years ago • 3

Hello,

When i'm making a prefab using an imported STEP using the cadlink tool the meshes disappear. Did I forget a setting and how to fix this? I had the "Set and Create Materials" enabled.

Hi,

you need to export the imported STEP data as FBX. This will save the meshes permanently. With this FBX you can create a prefab with real-virtual components. The FBX exporter is available in the package manager.

Hello,

Thanks! I found the option "Convert to FBX prefab variant" And that works. Only thing is that it is now fully pink instead of the colors it should be.

All the materials are empty when i check them. - Edit - The Exported FBX is correct, just the prefab isn't.

I also got 441 of these errors and I get more and more when i select parts of the prefab:
