When even trying to import a simple skeletal sphere with a morph target an two bones on it simply does not work. the Mesh imports with the bones, but there are no morph targets. Using 3ds max 2017 and UE 4.17 all kinds of fbx formats

For the error you mentioned above, it looks like someone has already run into as well. The issue was logged and the target fix is 4.18. Here is a link to the public tracker if you would like to take a look at it. -Thank you

Hi, If you could post some screen shots or a sample project, I can take a look at the issue further. However, there is a setting that is fairly easy to overlook.

Doing the same thing for Maya, and can’t get it to import the targets, it’ll import the targets curves but not the targets, Tried Everything I know, Export using FBX 2010-2016 checking each version, deleting the original, after each try, reimporting after each try. Nothing works and the FBX re-impor…

Nevermind, it was a long day, and I had set the Morph Target Flag multiple times, and I guess the last couple of times I didn’t and it must have re-set the import settings. Checking and triple checking the first image’s checkbox “Import Morph Targets” is a key factor especially if you see other comp…

This shoud be the right answer, u save me a lot of time… Sitting here for hours and can’t get my morphs to run. Then read this, try it on 4.15 and 4.16 and there it is, works perfect! It’s the bug in 4.17! Thank u man!
