Rig Compatibility

All animated bones must face forward relative to the armature.

In Blender, you can ensure this is the case by displaying bone axes and checking if the Z axes are facing forward:

If any of them aren't facing forward, select all bones in Edit mode and do Armature > Bone Roll > Recalculate Roll > Global +/- X/Y/Z Axis. You'll most likely be using Global -Y Axis if the armature faces forward relative to the world.
