It came out ok for just messing around

Mesh To MetaHuman | Unreal Engine 5 | Shannon Hurley Test 01

I asked a dear friend of ours Singer/Song Writer/ Trance Musician Shannon Hurley if I could scan her head with our Einscan Pro2x so I could do some Mesh To Metahuman tests in Unreal 5. She was cool enough to say yes and she let me scan her dome and pop it in the UE5. The bonus part is she let us use the new song she is working on as the background music. I am SO digging the Vibes!

Scanned Mesh to MetaHuman. Sometimes you just have to have fun with it. I brought my niece over to The Secret Hideout because she wants to get scanned and put into a video game. So I decided to try out the new Epic Games "Mesh To MetaHuman" plug in for Unreal Engine 5. I used my Einscan Pro2X scanner from Shining3D to acquire the scan. I timed out the entire process out to see how long it will ...

We finally got the OptiTrack working with Metahumans! It all looks pretty good...it's good but not great, yet. We are tying to figure out if on the Motive side or on the Unreal Side or is it because we shouldn't use the booties provided. Maybe we should add makers straight to the performers shoes, that way we'll know that there isnt a height offset. Anyway...back to the drawing board!

    I was truly impressed after watching your video, The precision and ease of use demonstrated by the motion capture system were remarkable. The scene with two people simultaneously using the mocap system was especially intriguing, showcasing the immense potential this technology holds for animation and game development. Witnessing the expansion of creative possibilities through innovative technology is always exhilarating.

    I just make an invisible material and add that material to the donor body. Then attach metahuman head. Then use facial animator to make the necessary face/head movement to fit the occasion.

    tutorial: can't delete "body" of your metahuman? Is error appearing? Well you can tell me thank you, because I found solution: 1. Delete Body 2. Press 3 vertical dots right to "Compile" button and turn ON "Jump to Error Node" 3. Press "Compile". you will jump to the node where error appeared. DELETE that node! 4. Repeat step 3 until you delete all error nodes (it is around 4-5 of them) 5. Compile and Save. Congrats you are done!

    I have also been looking into this. Are you using the live link method to get the motion in or the 'old' method where you need to play in editor? In my investigation, it looks like the live link method does not scale the joints which I think accounts for the foot sliding. The old method does scale correctly, but it only works in play mode, which is not a good workflow for VP, recording takes and just working. I have flagged it with support but they have no idea when they will get to it. If you were using the live link skel, try the old way and see if it's better

      Thanks Brent! I appreciate that. It "looks" like my niece... but its off a bit. It looks like a "Kyla Impersonator". I wish there were still the same controls that come with the baseline Metahumans. I could REALLY hone it in. It's close but could be better. This MH jawline is a bit rounded. In real life her jaw is a bit more angular giving her a mort tear dropped shaped face. I think I my have to sculpt it a bit in Zbrush and then try it again. OR there is that mesh remixer plug in plugin that lets you sculpt the mesh a bit...If I can only remember the name. I hear its a bit spendy but I'm willing to do it.

I've reworked it a bit, but my scan my head was slightly turned and I need to capture the back of the head to get the shape right. I think you are right about having more control though. I'm sure its a limitation to the underlying bones too. There is likely a threshold. Let me know if you figure out a better workflow. I'll keep messing with it too.
