3D 0402 myssli missing from the Step-file

Layout 3D Models
1

Several components are missing from the 3D file, for instance 0402 chips. How can I add them and if I add them, will it slow down creation and viewing of file.
This kind of error messages I get
Cannot add a VRML model to a STEP file.
Add component R31.
Cannot add a VRML model to a STEP file.
Add component R24.
Cannot add a VRML model to a STEP file.
Add component C33.
Cannot add a VRML model to a STEP file.
Add component U10.

Add component C32.

On my similar system the .wrl files are the default. I can manually change the footprint to use the also provided .step model

I see. Does it slow your machine if you put plenty of 3D parts in the PCB

Only 3D rendering, the KiCad pcb file embeds footprints, not the 3D model
