Hi Solyiko, welcome to the forums. You are leaps and bounds above me ... although I have Blender, I can't make sense of it very much. If I remember correctly though, you have to close the mesh after you save it in Blender, before you can open it again in S4S. Is your file path correct for the S4S install? I just checked mine, and it is installed to my Documents folder.

Solyiko ... this happens sometimes when I am working in Paintshop or trying to delete working files from a folder. As you have already done, close everything & restart doesn't always clear the path ... sometimes I have to open a different file to release the hold in whatever program that won't let go. Somehow Blender is holding your file in its cache, I would imagine. I seriously hope that is the magick trick to getting your file imported to S4S ... now I really want to see what you are working on! *You can make a creators page here in the forum and upload your designs for others to download.

You do not have to close Blender after saving your mesh before it can be imported to Studio. This error message looks like you have a "dead" instance of Blender running in the background. Open your task manager and close all instances of Blender to clear that out. Then resume work on your project.

Even if it doesn't show up in your screen it could still be running in the background.

Hi, I did what you guys said but it doesn't work for me, it still won't import, keeps loading forever and if I cancel and try again, it pops up the error.

Hi, I did what you guys said but it doesn't work for me, it still won't import, keeps loading forever and if I cancel and try again, it pops up the error. Your mesh is too high poly. Make sure to apply all modifiers (beside armature) and that the polycount in within 10-15k limit
