It exports your selected meshes as FBX straight into your Unity project's `Assets` folder, where Unity auto-imports them on focus. If Unity is closed, the bridge launches it with your project. No exporting or locating files by hand.

The bridge writes the FBX into `Assets/` (default `BlenderExport`). Unity watches its Assets folder and imports anything new the moment the editor regains focus — so the model appears in your Project window ready to drag into a scene.

Yes. With Reuse Running Unity on, it drops the file into Assets and lets your open editor import it on focus, instead of launching a second copy. If no editor is running, it launches the one you picked with your project.

Any Unity editor installed through Unity Hub — the bridge auto-scans your Hub editors (including the secondary install path) and plain installs, lists them newest-first, and lets you pick one. You can also set a `Unity.exe` path by hand.

It's optional. Install Unity Script copies a small C# AssetPostprocessor into `Assets/Editor/UniversalBridge`. With it installed, Unity reads a JSON manifest the bridge writes next to each FBX and applies your import scale, materials, mesh colliders and Read/Write setting automatically. Without it, the FBX still imports with Unity's default settings.

Yes. Get from Unity imports an FBX Unity exported (`unity_to_blender.fbx`) into a dedicated "Unity Import" collection. Update mode refreshes only the objects you re-sent and keeps the rest; Replace all clears the collection and imports everything fresh.

Yes. Turn on Apply Modifiers to bake modifiers into the mesh on send, then use the per-object checklist to include or exclude each one (All / None). Unticked modifiers are muted for the export only and restored afterwards.

Yes. Run Preflight flags ngons, non-manifold edges, missing UVs and materials, and unapplied scale/rotation. One-click fixes apply transforms or add UVs (Smart UV Project) to the meshes that need them.

Yes. Select any number of meshes and Send. The shared Send Each Collection tool batches every scene collection that has meshes to Unity one at a time.

No — it's non-destructive. Modifiers are applied to a temporary export copy, not your mesh, and Backup Before Send can duplicate the originals into a "Unity Backup" collection first. Your working data stays as it was.
