Why do I need them in the beginning of development. Specially when all I want to do is check to see if the models are set right and there's no holes where there's not suppose to be. I'm not ready to add textures to anything. Why should I have to waste time texturing something that I might not leave in the age or I might change things completely.

I understand that maybe most texture as they build, but personally I don't and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Now I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but an opt out kinda option would be cool. Basically it may say: no texture found do you wish to continue. If you say yes it exports as is.

Whats worse is that I added some textures just to satisfy the plugin (didn't UV texture)and it still gave me the error.

So you know what I'm talking about I post the error in console:

was just wondering about this. I ran into it before and thought it was removed, but its been awhile.

You don't need textures. I have made several tutorial ages without textures. All you need is a material with UV mapping.

So create a new material, go into edit mode, hit u and select unwrap. After that the object will export.
