This is the file I am trying to import back into CC4. I exported it to Blender using the Blender pipeline and in Blender, I used the CC4 pipeline to export out. Every time I try to import it back into CC4 it crashes.

I have actually found the issue. Multiple different videos on your official youtube channel and elsewhere show a couple of different techniques to roundtrip between blender and CC4. There is more information on how to do an older way that has you manually import back into CC$ using the dropdown from the plugins tab and import from blender option and then there is a newer video that has you using the goB plugin and updating the mesh in blender and having the data link do it automatically update in CC4. CAn we please get a clear and updated tutorial on how to roundtrip between blender and CC4 for clarity or simply remove outdated videos?
