martians; "Didn't e-on make this intentionally so? Because there wasn't a way to export models in Vue d'Esprit 4 - and likely no parameters to lock objects from export - when they introduced export in Vue 4 Professional they had to make it impossible to export models made in earlier versions. Has anyone ever really exported one of his own previous vob models? Because I have never been able to. That said, can't they get the suppliers to the cornucopia store to supply their models without restrictions or in different formats? Or at least show a clear warning if a model can't be exported, for example if it was created in Vue4 or earlier. (Maybe they already have, but I haven't really seen the cornucopia store yet, as it has been down for servicing ever since I first saw the opening anouncement!)" Exactly. What has gotten people confused is that the broken 5.08 update also broke the export function for content you imported yourself. That is a good idea about the warning/info flag on the content; I'll drop that into the list of store-related glitches-cool ideas to consider. It would save some brimstone for other, more needed purposes at the very least.... :P
