Assimp libraries no longer necessary
Issue #28
invalid
Hello, I'd like to ask, how it is done, that assimp dlls are no longer required, when using assimp.net. I can't wrap my head around it where the 5MB+files went.
And second question is, if I'd want to build assimp.net with current development build of assimp, do I just need to replace the empty dlls at libs/Assimp/version?

At first I thought you were talking about the nuget package (no native DLLs were removed, quite the opposite, more have been added).
Then I realized I think you're talking about the native DLLs we have up in source control. If they're empty files, that means you do not have the git LFS (large file storage) installed.
Running this from your command line should be enough to install it on your machine:
git lfs install
Last I checked, the C-API on the native assimp's master branch should be compatible with AssimpNet, I only recall there were some new APIs but no changes that break backwards compatibility with 4.1.0. So yes, you should be able to just drop in place the new DLLs.
