MetaHuman Animator Tutorial | Unreal Engine 5

Most common issue: If your head is moving and your face is not" Make sure that in the sequencer, where your FACE is, delete the CONTROL RIG LAYER. There must only be ONE layer under face. That is your baked animation :)

For anyone who is using UE 5.3.2 and has a problem with not having FACE in sequencer, I got it working this way: - In MetaHuman Performance view, do everything the same until Export Level Sequence - When you click there and you get Export settings, go all the way down to MetaHuman Tracks - Select your MetaHuman BP as Target MetaHuman Class and tick Enable MetaHuman Head Movement - Now you have your MetaHuman in Sequencer, remove the controlRig from Body - Add animation to body Done. Thanks Bad Decisions Studio for awesome tutorial!

Love what you have done here. Really nice work. I am a member of the MetaHuman team at Epic, and have just one small comment on the creation of the MetaHuman Identity. For the 'Teeth' pose, you should make sure that the top and bottom teeth are together, with the back teeth meeting in a 'clench', and (likely) top teeth slightly overlapping the bottom teeth, and opening the lips so that the upper teeth tips are visible. In your pose, there was a small gap between top and bottom teeth, which can lead to slightly less accurate positioning of the teeth in the MetaHuman Identity, and therefore slightly less good quality of animation.

I found you guys like a month ago and by far give the best UE tutorials, so thorough and entertaining! Keep up the great work!

This is insane. I didn’t know stuff like this was possible. It’s incredible how fast technology is moving
