I've tried exporting the mesh as an OBJ and FBX. I've tried cleaning up the mesh in Maya and triangulating it. I suspect it may be due to the concavity of the object? Don't know how to move forward. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi there,

Concave objects should not pose a problem, as distance fields do not care about the shape of the object. Could you share your mesh, so that we can diagnose it? (if needed, you can send it to support(at)virtualmethodstudio.com)
