Biscuitpants, Your request is like me saying to you, "Need help, I can't see!"

What version of Blender?
What version of BleST?
Are the source SMD/DMX files in the proper folders that are being called by the qc?
What errors are you getting?

We can't assist without details.

Or go here... https://steamreview.org/BlenderSourceTools/

On the page in the Links section under the Official heading there is a link to the Release archive. Click that and find the release you need for the version of Blender you're using.

smd_bone_vis was (and still is) a customized mesh object and assigned to pose and object bones when you import a Valve source SMD or DMX file.

It also did exist in 2.79 but was hidden and had a fake user assigned to the object so it couldn't be deleted.

Blender 2.80 doesn't hide it for some reason when you import the smd/dmx files.

It shouldn't be deleted, but you can just hide it and deselect it from the exportables when you export your model.

Thanks Artfunkel... I've also provided a different temporary fix as well for those that want to keep modifiers above, until you can look into this.

Cheers

EDIT: Attempted to test in 2.79, however I found that the original blend file has been save from 2.80. So it is now a 2.80 blend file with 2.79 UI written into the file.

I cannot open this file in 2.79 to test with it, however I can append the model from the 2.80 blend into 2.79. Will test 2.79 that way.

Test result in 2.79 and temporary quick fix for the problem until it can be properly investigated by developers (This is a 2.80 - BleST 3.0.0 bug and it looks like it might be in the export function)

Not sure if this is a BleST problem or not, but I was asked why an armature wasn't working on a file (SMD Import).

Using Blender 2.80 (Steam version) and BleST 3.0.0 (Check for updates reports I have the most current version)

The file is a blend file that was originally created and saved with Blender 2.79 and opened in 2.80. Very simple model. 5 bones and 1845 verts. User was weight painting the bones in 2.80, exporting the model as a SMD and reimporting the SMD back into Blender 2.80 and was complaining that the bones weren't working on the imported SMD.

Thinking it was a different problem I asked for the file so I could examine it and instruct on the proper process of weight painting but after testing the model, I was quite shocked with the what I found.

Video 1

Opening the blend file, weight painting, exporting SMD files, importing the exported SMD only to find the weights were transferred to main bone and influences were lost on the other bones.

Video 2

Opening the blend file, weight painting, exporting DMX files, importing the exported DMX only to find the Vertex groups were missing and there was no armature modifier.

Thinking that it may be a conflict between the 2.79 and the 2.80 UIs I repeated the tests with Load UI disabled.

Same results in both cases.

Sorry for my clumsiness in the videos with 2.80, but I've only been using it since RC2. I still struggling with the interface.

Here's an example...

Yup, as Zappy suggested, The collection is Blenders new way of making the Layers that you could move object to in the Objects Mode menu bar of 2.79. Now instead of being restricted to 20 layers, you can have as many collections as you want. If also acts as a Grouping function where BleST is concerned "collecting" all the objects in a collection into a group. Selecting "Suppress Collection" will split the the individual items out for export.

Attachments and eyeballs were not set to the proper bone. Missing attachments for righteye and lefteye. Coords were off and x axis coords were reversed (right was positive, left was negative). Iris values not set properly. Missing data in EyeRefract shader.

First, try updating Crowbar to the newest version.
