Hi David, I’ve just checked with our example\_script.ms and it appears to work fine. Does the example\_script.ms included with PVRGeoPOD work fine for you? What does your own DefineSceneUserData function contain? Thanks, Scott ---

Hi, I was using 2.15.1 which I believe is the latest version released. Your DefineSceneUserData looks correct. Does the output from your export mention any errors? Also, just to make sure, are you checking .pUserData for the string? Cheers, Scott ---

Hello Scott i assure you that it doesnt work , i use to to use it in previous release if you remember our talk about it ( and i did find bug already ). i am sure that it work for you, that is unfortunate that it doesnt work for me, i check the plug in aswell anyway i give up on this feature and i will probably not use POD anymore,nothing wrong with it…but not flexible enough compare what you can do with Fbx… regards david ---

The only other suggestion I have is to delete the PVRGeoPOD.plist from C:Users**[user name]**AppDataRoamingImagination Technologies and try again as maybe the settings have developed a fault and this is affecting the internal workings of PVRGeoPOD. If you make a copy of the .plist and deleting it does fix the problem feel free to attach the copy [to a ticket](https://pvrsupport.imgtec.com/) so we can take a closer look at what is breaking things. Note: Doing this will delete any saved settings/configurations you have. ---
