Hey KuroSekaie,

Would you mind sending us your FBX file? You can zip it up and attach it for us to look at. Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for that asset for testing. I was able to see the import failure as you have described. When I imported the mesh into 3DSmax, I received this error message:

The Initial position (or Initial Pose) of the skinned objects is missing.
The plug-in will create a pose automatically but running the
‘Assume Skin Pose’ command may create unexpected results.

Leading me to think you are correct in that it has something to do with the bones/skin. What modeling program did you make it in? Can you get the error on a different mesh as well or only this one? Any additional information may help us locate the source of the problem.

Thanks!

Try making a new asset using the Autorigging Tool from Daz 3D. Keep it as simple as you can, then try with that and send me a copy as well. We have seen a couple of autorigging tools that UE4 will not be friendly with, but that can be fixed if we find the problem.

so now i have maked a fun character… and theres no issue… and my Hard Worked Hero Model have issues…thats Nice … File-Upload.net - Datei nicht gefunden
… so i Must rig my Hero Model New? :C…
… Wheew i see a lots of warnings and errors durring the Import…

edit: … erm… Ive tried it with a 3rd Character and there is the Same problem…,now im Confused

Try checking the checkbox in the import settings window that say “Import Meshes in Bone Hierarchy”. That solved the DAZ import issue for my rigs.
