      Depending on how you exported, you may need to have multiple animation playback controller (spark.meta.com/learn/articles/animation/baked-animations/). You need one for each individual animation. Also, inside the animation controller, ensure that the correct clip is selected in the top right. Hope that helps.

      It sounds like it's a complex material, like it's coordinate mapped or procedurally created in the 3d software you are using. I'd recommend using textures. It's the most straightforward of materials, so there is little room for misinterpretation. Hope that helps.

    • @Dunaway_Smith
      @Dunaway_Smith 2 месяца назад

      Unfortunately, you cannot import lights. Aero (at this point) only has one overhead light, so all reflective materials will only respond to that one light source. Make sure you are using a PBR will low roughness and high metallic qualities. You might try using Adobe Dimension or the Substance suite for the materials. I've noticed that the Adobe software seems to communicate consistently between their apps.

    • @Dunaway_Smith
      @Dunaway_Smith 3 месяца назад

      There could be a number of things occurring. Adobe Aero doesn't support complex shaders, so if you're using a procedural or node based shader in your 3D app, it won't appear that way in Aero. The best thing to do is use PDR materials and textures. Other than that, I'd go to Adobe's support site to see if other folks are experiencing that issue. community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-aero/ct-p/ct-adobe-aero?page=1&sort=latest_replies&lang=all&tabid=all

If you have an armature, I'd try unparenting the armature, deleting vertex groups, then parenting it again (with auto weight.)
