Blender fbx plane not showing texture only black?

Questions & Answers

Hi there I have tried importing a blender model and hit a lot of problems, but I managed to get around the direct import problem by exporting the model from blender as an fbx file and then importing the fbx.

This seemed to work apart from textures, when I tried to add the textures the materials just stayed black in edit mode and when running the game.

So I tried importing a single blender plane the same way but with the same effect no textures appear the plane appears black?

Can you help?

Tried Blender 2.49b and 2.54b as exporters with no effect.

Not Sure ,Did you UV unwrap your mesh?

The following method worked for me. Put the 3D view in textured mode before exporting an fbx. Also, in the FBX imported, uncheck Generate Lightmap UVs
