FBX import will crash, up to date plugins… :-(. I have created a very simple (500 poly) night table, exported inside 3dsmax 2011 AND 2014, with Binary 2011/2013 formats, and when I import it into Editor, it just crashed and says “Sorry for inconvenience”.
Very disappointed. I have tried importing some old FBX’s from internet and they work fine… Could it be it’s not liking 3dsmax FBX export?
Unreal Engine deals better with TGA, don’t use JPEG.
Don’t forget to optimize your textures too,by eliminate unused alpha channel when possible and right DXT to right occasion.
Thank you for your report. I attempted to recreate problem by importing an FBX with jpeg materials, but was unable to get crash. Could you please go into project’s [Project Name]/Saved/Logs folder and retrieve log file that was created at time of crash? That will allow us to further investigate issue.
i have same Problem. It doesn’t matter what i choose. FBX Import crashes Editor. I can Export mesh without Animation or with, but it’s allways same. I’ve checked all: Material (there is no), Animation and all other things.
What is Problem? I don’t know what to do. I documentation. But it’s not really helpfull.
Thats from log:
!Id:428a17a33c4e9cb1a0d3c6178e903070
Unknown exception - code 00000001 (first/second not available)
I see, that when i Export mesh as not Combine mesh (all bodyparts extra), then it work. If i use a complete mesh that are combined (all meshes), then it dont work. Can it be?

THANK YOU!!! I could not for life of me figure out why it kept crashing, and this was answer! Just added _texture to end of texture file, and it imported with no problems! Thank you!
