Hi Dan,

Sketchup doesn’t provide support, that I’m aware of, for setting up any custom UVs for your mesh. This can play havoc with building static lighting in Unreal Engine 4. With that in mind you have a couple of alternatives.

  • You can use a standalone application for setting up UVs like Headus UV or RoadKill UV.
  • You can generate your UVs in UE4 inside the Static Mesh Editor. Try following this section of our Wiki Lighting Troubleshooting Guide

Using the generated lightmaps option may not work in all cases depending on the mesh, but it’s worth a shot.

I hope this helps.

Tim

Thank you very much !
