Vertex Colors only show up as white

Hi guys,

I’m pretty new to UE5, and I’m trying to import in a plane from maya

However, no matter how many times I try the plane keeps on coming in with fully white vertex colors instead of the RGB - White gradient.

I’ve tried importing it with the “replace” and “override” vertex color options but it still doesn’t work.

I’m not sure if it’s something to do with Maya (although I would assume replace/override would replace the vertex colors from Maya), but I’m stuck and can’t figure it out.

Does anyone know a fix to this issue?

Thanks in advance!

Unreal only reads geometry and UVs from the FBX. You have to make the material yourself after import.
