FBX animation import issues

PolyHertz

Trying out UE4 for the first time. Made a simple block man with a no-frills rig, direct parenting for the body parts, and simple 3 keyframe animation. When I export from max as an FBX (same as written here) and import it in to UE4 there's no animation. I've tried a few things, but no luck.

Here's the max file (Max2013 format): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4210886/boxmanAnim.max

I'm not really a rigger/animator, and the little I have done for that has been in Maya/Blender years ago, so I'm sure I'm missing something basic. Can someone enlighten me?

Are you sure you clicked the 'import animations' box?

So you don't have bones, just linked the body parts to each other?

Oh wow, replies. Actually just deleted the dropbox file today since I thought the topic wouldn't end up getting any replies...

Anyhow, found out that animations import fine so long as I enable 'Bake Animation' and 'Resample all' on export. I am concerned it might cause problems with transitions having a key on every frame, but I haven't got to test that yet.
