Problem exporting to Unreal engine

[Anonymous]

I imported the parasolid file of a robot in to maya, and set the pivot points to there correct location.

Now i want to export this object to my unreal engine so that i can use it there.

Only on export i got the following error:

This scene contains at least one transform node with multiple shape nodes. The plug-in will export only one of the shape nodes.

The name(s) of transform node(s):

|IRB1600_X_120|Base

|IRB1600_X_120|surface2

|IRB1600_X_120|surface3

|IRB1600_X_120|surface4

|IRB1600_X_120|surface5

|IRB1600_X_120|surface6

|IRB1600_X_120|Axis_1

|IRB1600_X_120|Axis_2

|IRB1600_X_120|Axis_3

|IRB1600_X_120|Axis_4

|IRB1600_X_120|surface11

|IRB1600_X_120|surface12

|IRB1600_X_120|surface13

|IRB1600_X_120|surface14

|IRB1600_X_120|Axis_4_2

|IRB1600_X_120|surface16

|IRB1600_X_120|surface17

|IRB1600_X_120|surface18

|IRB1600_X_120|surface19

|IRB1600_X_120|surface20

|IRB1600_X_120|surface21

|IRB1600_X_120|Axis_5

|IRB1600_X_120|Axis_6

Also when i want to combine 2 of my transform layers i got the error:

// Error: line 0: Invalid selection : polyUnite needs at least 2 polygonal objects.

So i assume there is something incorrect about my current 3D model, but i dont know what. Could someone explain me how i can transform this model in a correct format so that i can export it to unreal?

Hi @Anonymous  and welcome to the community!

I believe this is happening because these are nurbs models.

If you select the model and go to Modify->Convert->Convert NURBS to Polygons it will convert the models pieces which you can then select and combine before exporting.
