Unable to import GLB model

I've been working in 3D for several years now, starting in Cinema 4D and now mainly Blender-now wanting to look at AR, so starting with Aero. I can't import a GBL file to Aero Desktop (Windows)-keep getting error message: 'There was a problem reading the GLB file.' This is the same for several different models. I've created/ exported glTF/ GLB files for use in other applications (Sketchfab, BabylonJS) without issue-including the same ones that won't import into Aero. Any thoughts on what the problem might be..?

Correct answer B.Rob

Got the .glb I will check now. Thanks


So the issue, it turned out, was that my model had been compressed, using Draco compression, which isn't supported by Aero. All good now. Thanks

Hi R. Rob, sorry this is happening to you. Can you let me know the Aero version you are using? Choose Aero->About Aero from the op menu. Also, I'm reaching out via PM to see if I can get your .glb file for examination. Thanks

Hi. Thanks for responding-and apologies for my delay coming back again. So I'm using the desktop Beta version of Aero, version 0.16.10 (#217), running on Windows 10. Will share GLB file in PM
