Importing obj from Blender into Photoshop doesn't work anymore

Hello.

I used to easily be able to export models from Blender as obj and open in Photoshop so I can paint over them.

Now, it seems I can't. The obj file format is not recognized it appears. It just refuses to open. I've tried multiple models, simple cubes, doesn't matter.

I'm using Blender 3.4.1 and Photoshop 2024. 

Did the ability to open these files get disabled? Can someeone share what options they are using to export? I've tried a combination of all I think that would work - no dice!

Thanks.

@michaels7104675 3D features are being discontinued in Photoshop, if you want to continue using 3D features you can install version 22.2 which is available from the Creative Cloud app and can be installed alongside the current version
