MassFX Animation to UE4

Development Character & Animation

Hi guys,

I’ve made a MassFX animation where a scaffold collapses. I’ve tried assigning bones to the meshes and imported it to UE4 however the way the bones act don’t replicate the same animation as the mesh.

I’ve tried following these tutorials but to no luck.

I welcome any suggestions that will help me get this animation into UE4.
Also is there a way to group all the objects under one name so it would not import ~64 objects and ~20 animation sequences?

Thanks
Ali

You could try collapsing the vertices

=>some tutorials on Youtube discuss various ways of achieving this :smiley:

You don’t need to use bones, but each object needs to be linked to the same root object.
