Hello! I recently downloaded AE Beta 24.2 to try bringing in some 3D models from Blender, but it doesn't seem to be working. The models do not appear on the screen, although I can see them there. I found that the advanced 3D option is missing. Could you please let me know which version includes the advanced option mode, or do you have any recommendations on this matter? Thank you!

Thank you, that helps. Unfortunately Advanced 3D currently requires a video card with 4 GB of GPU memory and must be a D3D11-compatible GPU (Feature Level 11.0, Shader Model 5.0). The intel card your machine is currently using does not meet those requirements.

Here it is

24.2 supports the Advanced 3D engine.

But Advanced 3D won't show up if you don't have the neccessary GPU hardware required for it. However you should have received an alert dialog when AE checked for the hardware support. 

 

Go into Preferences -> Previews, and then click GPU information. Grab a screenshot of that information and post it back here. We may be able to see what's going on from that.
