Description
Currently. if an image is missing at export time, an irrecoverable error is raised. While this is probably, in theory, the best behavior, it poses an annoying obstacle to exchanging blend files. Instead, we should consider exporting a dynamic text map with xDynaTextBoy.py set to print "ERROR" onto it.

Research direction
Review xDynaTextBoy.py and trace the Blender export path that handles missing images. Determine how a missing image can produce the proposed dynamic text map showing "ERROR" instead of an irrecoverable export failure, then verify that blend files with missing images complete export and display the fallback.
