I even tried deactivating the antivirus while running the executable, just in case, but to no avail.
...

well. anyway i can see here some problems:
1. mapview dont have converted paths for your resource files (by RulesetConverter) if you can open mapview and see your maps its should work for 3d.
2. some problems with win11 i cant predict.

P.S. Addition
found logic bug in code, standard ufo paths without "basepath" in Mapview data not worked.
fixed.
also made executable for Linux X11. cant test it work, on own risk.

Cant say for sure. Win11 is not in my list. Should work, as any usual program for win. Anyone else have win11?

great tool! also works easy and intuitive, only issue i got was giving the path i only manage to do it in the .cfg document ( i got the paths on desktop, maybe that was the issue)

Thanks.
Should work with any path to "MapView2", only thing - path you choose should have "settings" folder and MapResources.yml and MapTilesets.yml in this "settings" folder.
If paths an issue i can remade it directly to "choose folder with files" or make two "text input" fields with "select files option".
Not hard to do.

Also found bug.
For some reason Godot string function "rstrip" is removed extra char from name of MCD file.
It was only one file name of them i tested.
Fixed, version 6.511 in first post.

personal curiosity: did you use quaternions for camera movement?

Quaternion is used for rotation in Godot v4.
But i start writing code in Godot v3 with "ready to use script" for camera mouselook, when go for newer version, was need to make changes.
now its look like this, "basis" is current rotation

Spoiler:

   
# Mouse look by mouse position.
_mouse_motion.y = clamp(_mouse_motion.y, -1550, 1550)
transform.basis = Basis( Quaternion.from_euler( Vector3(_mouse_motion.y * Crotation, _mouse_motion.x * Crotation, 0) ))

Program made to see/check loftemps geometry.

• Uses code to generate 3d from xcom files directly.
• Uses MapView2 settings files to get to map blocks and other necessary files like MCD and DAT.
• Made in Godot.

Example video

Spoiler:

Notes

• Win64 version
• Makes one text cfg file in exe folder to hold path to MapView2
• TTFD files not tested

V6.51 update
Search by mapblock name.

Spoiler:

V6.512 update

• Fixes with paths.
• Linux executable.
