Hi there, I've just started looking at S4S and creating custom content for the first time but I'm running into some issues that are quite frustrating!

Hopefully it's a simple fix or something that I'm just missing. Anyway, when I'm looking at an object in Studio I can't seem to export it as a file that Blender can open, I have version 2.70 installed as that was the one that was recommended, I have all the correct paths set in Studios settings.

For context I'm trying to remove the stand on the picture frame so I can scale it up and use it as a custom wall shape (so an angled wall like \ )

Any help would be appreciated, I've tried searching around but I can't really seem to solve this problem.

Apologies if this has been asked already.

EDIT: It seems it wouldn't let me look at meshes if the package file was saved in my game directory. However when I try and export the mesh I get this error instead:

Hi there,

This is kinda unrelated to your issue, but it is strongly advised not to put any of your content in both your Game Path or Documents Path (Only put finished or testing packages in your Documents Folder, but do not save them directly into one of those folders for storage). It's best always to save your cloned package to a folder that's unrelated. For example:

I store all my files in the folder: C:\MC Studio\ where MC Studio stands for Memphis Creations. If you would do something similar to that, that way it will give you some less resistance.

Also a bit more related to your issue, which version of S4S are you using? Are you updated with the last version? Also, since awhile Blender 2.76 is also supported.
