Uploading a 4.5 LTS .blend file to Sketchfab generates an error 13 and the operation fails. Exporting the file to .fbx first gets the upload to succeed, but then the model can't be viewed, and despite it telling me to read the FAQ, there doesn't seem to 1. be an FAQ anymore and 2. the help center doesn't have anything about it.
Downloaded Blender 3.2.0 and tried appending the two objects for the shark (body + eyes), but doing so immediately crashes old Blender. Appending one object at a time also crashes old Blender.
At this point, I'm just going to give up and move onto the next lesson. I appreciate the course, but this is kind of an abysmal chokepoint for a paid service.
Hello Drakmire. Yeah Sketchfab tends to misbehave. Tell you what, upload a couple of images of your exercise result here and then on the exercise submission just put any Sketchfab link, just so you can pass the submit screen. We'll judge the exercise here and see if it's all good.
Sketchfab sorta started working overnight, despite still getting an error. For posterity: I was using Blender 4.5 LTS and exported my sculpt to .fbx. Uploading that went fine, but Sketchfab's model viewer said it couldn't display the model and to check the FAQ. It seems like maybe it was just a processing time thing, as I was able to view the model overnight. On Chrome, I still get the error, but am I able to use the model viewer. On Firefox, no error, and I can use the viewer. So maybe if you see the same problem I did, give it a few hours and check different browsers.
