As written in the topic, the 3dsmax exporter (v20240312.5) exports every mesh as pickable when choosing file format glb / gltf. Exporting a scene as a .babylon file the object property “Pickable” is exported correctly. Can anyone confirm this?
I believe there is no “Pickable” mesh property in GLB/GLTF format - glTF™ 2.0 Specification

From the documentation for Mesh:
isPickable: boolean
Gets or sets a boolean indicating if the mesh can be picked (by scene.pick for instance or through actions). Default is true

labris is referring to the glTF specification. Autodesk’s GLB exporter is pants. My advice if you want to use 3ds: install 3ds max 2023 and the supporting exporter: Babylon.js docs
This may be true, but it’s not the exporter at fault. glTF does not currently specify whether a mesh is pickable as @labris mentioned, though there is a draft specification in progress: KHR_node_selectability Draft Proposal by lexaknyazev · Pull Request #2422 · KhronosGroup/glTF (github.com) to support the incoming interactivity spec. And as @HiGreg has already mentioned, a mesh is pickable by default in Babylon. The glTF loader does not change this setting and thus all meshes are pickable when loaded from a glTF.
