Can't Export UVs or Materials to Unreal Engine 4

I’m trying to export a model into Unreal Engine from Blender, but most of the textures and the UVs do not crossover.

A lot of youtube tutorials just recommend doing a “smart uv unwrap” which I did, and it did nothing. I made sure to only have 1 UV map, I attempted to bake the textures but baking on Blender never works. I don’t know what I’m missing. Could anyone help?

You do need to get the UVs right before moving the model to the engine. I can see you’re on the right track, but not quite there. A model like that, will need manual intervention.

As far as the materials and texture go, they never make it over the unreal. You have to import the textures manually, and make the material on the engine side.
