its asking for unrealenginelauncher.exe - is the problem - this does not exist in 4.25 afaik
in order to actually get FBX to import/export properly, you can’t use maya 2020
so i’m using maya 2016LT
which is why its asking for unrealenginelauncher.exe
the FBX stuff is *not * working properly, that is why im trying live link - as i have no intention of doing animation in maya

HEY SO
there are 25 of us on this forum it seems like
and answerhub is actually a separate product/company wow
i thought it was some cheap HTML that epic threw together but i guess they dont use fiverr
the thing is - everything with epic is like this except the guys that made the C++/engine
MAYA LIVE INSTALLATION DOCS — literally made be someone that does not speak english as a first language
how in the world could you hire someone to do your media presentation that is not qualified with even knowing what the word is for “not having an accent” because you’re media trained.
im not media trained i know the word but i cant remember it nor find reference to it on the internet
“it might be lost”
point being — there is no legitimate documentation on the MAYA LIVE LINK install
this is #4 from the documentation page:
this makes NO sense whatsoever - whoever wrote this not only totally spazzed out
but decided to finish the page and submit it to whoever - management/production - “as is”
i mean they literally tried to slip one right past their co-workers
now as far as i know, autodesk is the one that did the 3DSMAX purchase? or converted it to MAYA
and autodesk made FBX format if im not mistaken, and now in maya 2020 you can’t do FBX exports any more
they’ve shut it down and removed all the configuration and options
this seems like a clear intent to me by autodesk to get rid of unreal engine
what are your 25 guys thoughts on this
ive been watching this “answerhub” thing and its literally just us few people
at least 5 of which have identified themselves to me as haters
literally should be playing taylor swift songs in an embed in my signature
maya is a little pest too, if you import a FBX or OBJ into it it fails
but if you drag it in from file explorer it works like “magic”
documentation literally does not tell you to drag it says the opposite, to import
