Backwards compatibility / Source Code
Hi Francisco,
would it be possible to maybe share the source code for your asset browser script?
I would like to be able to change the max file it saves so it is backwards compatible and maybe an option to save it as obj. It would be very kind of you if you could share it so we could try to modify it to our needs a bit.
Thanks in advance.

The script removes the lights
@eyepiz The script removes the lights intentionally, the purpose was to keep the previews consistent across messy library, but now I guess it would make sense to make it optional
