LiveLink not connecting

Hello, I am trying to get LiveLink working but UE4 is not picking up the connection. I have tried in both Maya and Mobu, but have not had any luck. Any help greatly appreciated!

cheers!

For anyone else that runs into this problem, I managed to fix it by:

  • resetting Windows firewall rules
  • restarting machine
  • when opening Maya/Mobu/UE4 windows firewall will ask for permissions, give it both Private and Public (not sure this was actually the issue, but it fixed it for me)

What also did the trick for me was another thing: under “Plugins” in UE4 the Plugin “UDP Messaging” has to be enabled.

Hi guys! Have you solved it? Because this thing is driving me crazy!
I tried any solution but I can’t resolve it…

In my project that plugin was enabled… I’m seriously thinking that the problem is my Kasperky Antivirus, but I also tried to disable it for a bit but nothing has changed

In unreal, after importing the dynamics first, do you open Livelink? Or you can directly connect with Maya?

I have tried for a long time and can’t connect to unreal

I had same problem and can confirm ‘UDP Messaging’ plugin is required

Hii,
anyone got any solutions, I’m also getting the same issue in unreal 5.3 and 5.2

Hey! I can see you recently ran into this problem, could you solve it? I’m going crazy…

what I did was following tutorial and installed old version of live link, but in the last video they’ll say the plug-in is in another name (maya live-link)
