3dshape path does not work

Layout 3D Models
1

Hello,

I updated to KiCad 6 and want to use my custom lib.
Symbols and Footprints are ok and all KiCad 5 projects could be updated to KiCad 6 format.

Unfortantly the 3dshapes are not found.
Please check following screenshots.
I hope someone can help me :pray:

You have $KISYS3DMOD set as your path to the model in the left window. Your models are found under $KICAD6_3DMODEL_DIR (right hand side)

This, in turn, indicates that you probably have a footprint from KiCad v5 or you have copied a footprint from there to your personal library. Until now it has worked because

  1. KiCad 5 libraries were installed somewhere and
  2. ${KISYS3DMOD} were defined and pointed to the KiCad 5 installation.

Thanks, it works now after I added ${KISYS3DMOD} as new path :+1:
