Anyone know a work around to the FBX animation import crashing in 4.10.1?

I have FBX animations I need to import into UE 4.10.1 but UE crashes. Anyone know a work around?

The animations used to import fine in UE 4.9.

So anytime I’ve faced with a catastrophic, demoralizing bug, I listen to this song -

Then it hit me, I could just install 4.9.2, try to import my FBX files there then migrate them to 4.10.1

Then hopefully someone will come out with a patch that fixes C++.

null puck reference float negative has returned a truncated indirect unaltered variable of non-negative async origin.

My work around would be to

  1. first see if a simple animation on the model works
  2. if 1 work, then try to separate the original animation in a serie of animations enough “easy” to UE to import
  3. if 2 works, then do a montage for get the original animation back

by the way, if you want that people patch this, you should provide the input file… or at less a minimal input file, so that people can reproduce the bug.

I found a work around to the bug.

Info is here - FBX animation import crash - Character & Animation - Epic Developer Community Forums

I have pretty much a similar issue with a similar workaround. My animations do import into 4.10 without crashing it, but the animations are completely broken and a big part of the keys are missing.
Have a look here if you like. https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/335206/fbx-import-results-different-broken-in-410-vs-492.html
I have provided Epic with my files and they were able to reproduce the bug and have it now filed and are (hopefully) working on it.

As a wild guess Id say our two issues could very well be related to the same source problem - whatever that may be.

Is there any news about this bug ? Importing of my FBX totally crashes 4.10.1. I keep importing and migrating from 4.9 …
