Having issues bringing a C4D file over to Adobeb Aero

I have been having problems bring my C4d file over to Adobe aero. my textures have a gradient so that might be the issue but...

1. the only way to get the textures over is to bake the object. but then this gets rid of the baked in animation so now, i have the texture but the animation wont run. 

2. when i bake the material only the textures dont transfer over. so it animates but with the washed out colors. 

i have been saving textures to same file and zipping them. I am not sure what is happening it's been two days and that is all i got. it aero just a weak product or am i missing soemthing.
