Rhinoceros 3D to UE4: serious import issues

Development Pipeline & Plugins

Hello,
since 3 years we have improved the Rhino importer and you have different paths.

Can you let us know exactly which path your are using, which issues your are noticing and finally could you share a model with us?

  1. You can import through Datasmith CAD, loading the 3dm file and either:
  • import the parametric data and let datasmith tesselate the surfaces and generate the UVs, in that case you might not have the good scale and panning on the texture. You will need to manually align and tweak material in UE.
  • load the tesselated and UV data that Rhino exported for you.
  1. You can also use our datasmith exporter plugin for Rhino that will allow you to export to .udatasmith file format.

We are aware that some materials still do not carry well into UE and it is schedule for improvement.
