Failed to import ‘C:\Users\Jeremy\Documents\MyCharacters\ThirdPersonJump_Loop.FBX’. Failed to create asset ‘/Game/myChar/ThirdPersonJump_Loop’.
Please see Output Log for details.

i’ve got this error, as i tried to export animations from 3rd person template to another project where i have another mesh of course. I just wanted to set up the animations for this new character.

The character is from Mixamo (self made in Fuse) btw.

Hi Jeremy_drn,

Does the “Migrate” functionality not work for your case?

From what I understand, you tried to Export the Jump_Loop anim and import it to another project? When you export an animation, the mesh is not included with it. You’d need to import the Mannequin mesh before trying to import the animation. That is unless you have an existing with the same joint heirarchy.
