Alembic groom not rendering on Mac

Hello everyone!

I’ve been struggling with Alembic hair cache on Mac for a few days. Could someone please help?

After importing Alembic hair cache from Maya, the groom asset just doesn’t render but just an empty object.

With the same alembic file, it works fine in UE 2.7 on Windows. The problem is that my PC is too slow. Everything I setup is on my mac for this project. Has anyone had the same issue before and how to fix it?

  • I tried with UE 4.6, 4.7, 5.0EA
  • I’ve got Groom, Alembic Groom Importer, Niagara, Niagara Extras plugins enabled.
  • Enabled Support compute skin cache, Tick animation on skeletal mesh init unchecked.
  • Attached screenshots I tried with very simple groom asset made with xgen interactive groom.

On windows:

Thank you for your help!
