Hello, I have not used Solidwork before, but I had a similar problem with Max Datasmith and this solution worked for me. I don’t know if the same solution will work in SolidWorks Datasmith, but if you wish, have a look at this link

> Hi Joshua The best approach to get help troubleshooting this may be to open an [Unreal Studio support ticket](https://unrealstudiohelp.epicgames.com/s/case-community-page) and provide the 3ds Max file to our support staff. We can then go through the steps to determine what is happening. Regards

I’m sorry for my bad english. I hope it was understandable and useful.
