The latest release is full of mismatched types errors.

25 errors where the compiler says: expected USize64, found u32. In file src\collectors\gltf.rs.

Thanks for the report. I must've missed this while testing without default features.

I think the collectors module can go, actually. I find myself updating them too often to fit the purposes of whatever app I'm writing. I don't think any of that should actually be part of this crate.

I'll put up a release that removes them and bumps the other deps soon.

[VictorCerezini]

No problem! Just to add some thoughts about the collectors module from the time I had to look into it, I think the gltf conversion can be useful when working with Bevy, since it's the file format it supports, and I thought the Mesh struct seems to provides a convenient way to interact with the data, so to me at least it seems like a useful module, but I guess in the end it depends on what you are working on. Having to change it all the time does seem like a pain. Great to hear you will put up a new release though, thanks.

I did actually have an asset plugin for bevy:

But I was frustrated that I couldn't specify dependencies on external resources like textures properly, so I stopped before I stuffed too many features into it. Now with the asset system upgrades that's actually possible, I might revisit it.

I think the ergonomics of this crate could be much better. I wrote this when I was dying to get stuff done fast, but I'd really like it to support a much wider version range. Writing nifs back to file is also doable. Shouldn't be too much to add on top of what's here now, but I haven't considered how versioning would work in this context.

[VictorCerezini]

It's pretty nice that you were able to get this far in earlier versions of Bevy. I think you could probably take some inspiration from C++ libraries that provide similar functionality, like Nifly and Niflib, at least for how to make the versioning work, and I think there is also a python library that offer nice ergonomics, if I am not mistaken. Even if their solutions wouldn't quite fit well in this project, they could give you some nice ideas.
