FBX file cannot imported into Unreal Engine 4

Hi I am currently using Daxz Studio 4.9.

I just created a Base Female Skeletal Mesh, and exported it as a fbx file.

But when I imported it into the engine, this mesh became really strange:

However, if I imported it into Maya 2015, and exported it from maya then into the engine, it works fine:

How should I handle this please?

    What options were you using on export?

    If it is imported fine into Maya, can you export it from Maya into UI engine then?

    I've encountered this as well. Either DAZ or Unreal has a bug in theri FBX code. If it works with Maya, you'd think it was DAZ, but I've never had any problems importing/exporting to DAZ using Lightwave with FBX. I might take a look at the Unreal code eventually to see what's going on. Hopefully, I can reproduce this with a simple object. I'll have to find FBX format docs now. If I do this, I might write a plugin for Ligthtwave to import the rigging to skelegons for FBX. Right now, the rigging will only import into Layout.

    We are told that there was a bug in the DS FBX exporter that might well account for the issue - if so it has been fixed and should be resolved in the latest beta.
