I’m a beginner user and I’m having an issue with Needle Engine.
I’m using Blender 4.2.6 or 4.3.2 (same problem) with the latest version 0.52.4 and Node.js.
First, I set the Web Project Path, and then I click on Generate Web Project. However, I get many WARN deprecated messages and errors.
As a result, the output is just a white page.
Hello! To assist you better with the warnings and errors you’re encountering while using Needle Engine with Blender, I need to gather more specific information.
Please provide the log information from Blender, which you can access through the menu: Help > Needle > Logs. This will help in diagnosing the warnings and errors you mentioned.
Once I have the log details, I can help you further with troubleshooting the issue.

Hey, which version of nodejs are you currently using? You can see it with the command node -v or at the bottom of the Needle Engine panel in Blender
Hi, it seems like there was a bug in the publish process and an invalid version got published. I’m very sorry - a new version will be available shortly
Please click Install Preview Server in Blender and then start your server again. It should install the right version then and work
Fantastic! Everything works perfectly!
I’d like to provide a small piece of feedback regarding the activation of the plugin in Blender.
Once the plugin is activated, I notice a slight increase in the overall response time in the viewport. For example, when I select and then delete an object, in this case, the second action takes longer than usual.
Great, good to hear.
Are you sure it’s related to the plugin? I can’t think of any code that runs by us that is related to the deletion of an object.
100% sure.
When I deactivate it, the viewport becomes more responsive. I might run some tests on other PCs with different graphics cards (I have an RTX 3080 with studio drivers).
Ok, thanks for the headsup (same here btw but I sometimes use it on my OSX m2 laptop too)
