Any ideas
Thanks in advaced
Hello Mulldoon,
From what you describe you cannot import a .fbx, matter the size, into UE 4.8. I have a bit more information I would like to gather from you.
1.) Does this happen in 4.9?
2.) What software did you use to create this .fbx?
3.) Can you link me a copy of your DxDiag?
After I have this information I will be able to assist you further.
DX Diag is attached
I have used blender and Maya (i have reinstalled both)
And i haven’t got 4.9 i was waiting till the full 4.10 source comes out before i update my engine version

Ok, if you would link a copy of any of the .fbx’s you are unable to import I will attempt to recreate this issue on my end.
Here are two of the files im using

It took about 10 mins to import this FBX but it did finish.
Environment : OS Windows 7 Professional

You will always have a problem with extreme amounts of polygons and triangles with your mesh. I imported this into Maya and saw that the tris exceeded 1.6M.
It may take you a while but as long as you can see your processes are running on your machine and the engine does not crash this is not a bug. I believe the reason why this import is taking so long is due to your graphics card.
aha okay, thank you for your time, i will try again tomorrow and just leave it. Thank you
No problem. If it still doesn’t work please post again.
Same problem here! Going back to FBX 2014/2015 on export fixed it!
