-Important: Unoptimized external model files (.mesh.xml, .material, .obj, .mat, .blend, etc) are not bundled by the default build script into the final game builds in the `dist` directory! If you or your customers try to run games containing code that loads non-.j3o models, you get a AssetNotFoundException *Runtime Error* (resource not found). Your final application code should only reference .j3o files. – Note that your developers will not get this runtime error when running development builds straight from the SDK.
