Whenever I import the FBX assets into UE 5.7, they’re always completely black. Unreal always has an error about no or incorrect “smoothing groups.” Any ideas? I really want to use these assets. I can see the GLBs but the collisions are all out of whack and I can’t go through the tunnels. So, I want to use the FBX files because of that. Thanks!
Hi! Please try this:
[FBX Import Settings (Static Mesh)]
//In the import dialog
1. Normal Import Method
• Import Normals and Tangents (preferred if authored correctly)
OR
• Compute Normals (UE recalculates smoothing)
2. Advanced -> Normal Generation Method
• MikkTSpace (default, correct)
• Reimport after changing settings.
If it doesn't fix the issue, please send me a message on Discord, or an email, and we will get it sorted!
