ModelViewer2 Will Not Show Both a "Loaded" and "Added" Model

[RustyGunner]

I tried loading a model.edm (using the "Load" button) into ModelViewer2 and then adding a collision.edm (using the "Add" button) but could not get both models to show as was possible before. I am using the latest Open Beta 2.8.5.40170.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Load the Molniya.edm model into ModelViewer2  -  The ship model will display normally.
2) Add the Molniya-collision.edm model into ModelViewer2 - The previous model will be removed and replaced with the collision model. Previously both models could be displayed at the same time.

Interesting to note is that the "Scene" drop down window will show both models are loaded but only the last one is visible.  See screen shot.

Bumping this topic as the latest OpenBeta has not resolved the issue.  ModelViewer2 will not show both a regular model and a collision model at the same time. It will only display one or the other.  It used to show both several versions ago.

I am try to show a regular model using "LOAD" model in the drop down menu and then adding a collision model using "ADD" model in the drop down menu. I use this feature to select/pick an acceptable collision model for those models that do not have a collision model.

The method given in the first post to show the problem using the Molniya.edm model and its cooresponding Molniya-collision.edm model, as an example, is still valid and demonstrates the issue.

On another note, ED should add a separate forum topic to centralize discussion on or about ModelViewer2.  This excellent program is a stand-alone application supporting DCS and should be treated as its own module. Just food for thought.

Issue reproduced. According to the warning message, we're not supposed to use the ST Model Viewer anymore, yet the MT version crashes during startup.

I've just bumped the MT crash issue. Stay tuned.
