FBX Export Problem

StaviElia — Thu, 25 Aug 2022 05:12:38 GMT

Hi,

I'm running into an issue with a mesh when exporting a group.

Every object in my scene exports fine except for these 3 identical meshes on this tower.

I get this material error which doesn't make sense because that material is applied elsewhere and is exporting those objects fine.

But as you can see when I reimport the FBX to Substance, the selected mesh disappears and moves somewhere else in the scene.

I think it's on Maya's end because if I export my entire scene, and then reimport it in a new scene, it is always and only those tower rings that get moved out of place. Any idea what is causing this?

Thanks.

It would be better to zip the file here for an expert elite to inspect.

Here is the scene with just the problem parts.

I tested it just now by exporting the 3 objects, they imported translated out of place and stacked.

Thanks.

So I ended up combining the 3 objects together and then separating them right after, it fixed the export problem.

I don't know the reasoning behind this behavior but it now exports correctly and stays in place.
