Hello ! I recently made a 3D Object that i wanted to import in AE (beta 24.0, that supports obj and glb files). I imported a glb and an obj file to test which one works, and when i import the 3D object into the scene, i can't see the object, it's selected, but invisible. I imported an image as a background, to see if it was because my object is glass and it needs a light/background to reflect to, but it didn't work I think it's because the 3D object doesn't use the background to reflect, but how can i fix that ?

Would love a older model and young model to make the PC just right

Not sure if you already got it but I had the same problem and I was able to import 3D objects by setting "Use of advanced 3d image settings" on my graphics control panel (in my case it was NVIDIA).

Can you tell me exactly what settings you have set?

The latest build of AE beta is not properly displaying 3D files when using the Advanced 3D rendering engine. You will either need to roll back a version or two using the Creative Cloud app or wait for the next build that is working.

The AE 2024 24.1.0 is out and the same problem persists, however it at least has the boxes populated next to comp that identify/recognize it as a 3D model. I made my GLB in ZoeDepth and it shows up there.

I have the exact same problem, and it doesn't seem to work for me with any 3D model, not only glass (on AE 24.1 beta, tried all renders as well). Did you end up fixing that?
