Error with importing .glb file to 3DsMax

Im trying to import a .glb file into max but i always get an error message or it does not do anything at all.
The file works fine in the Windows 3d viewer with animations and textures.

I´ve tried 3dsMax 2023 & 2024 (and Maya)
The internet says that Max and Maya natively work with .glb/.gltf so thats why im confused

there is no built-in glb/gltf importer in 3ds Max, there is only an exporter
Generally speaking,  GLB/GLTF support for 3ds Max is limited and would need some serious commitment  by Autodesk IMHO. It's such a great format, but currently all the developer resources seem to be put on USD support ( which is far more complex to be fair)
