Hey, thanks for watching! Appreciate the support!
Nice vid bro! Appreciated
Thanks for watching!
This is the way!
Very cool, thanks 👍
Thanks 😊
Awesome! I am so looking forward to following along step by step for this. Hopefully I can use a different camera other than an iPhone for the images.
Yes! You can use any camera you like and there are plenty of photogrammetry tutorials on UA-cam as well. Look into Meshroom, that's a free and opensource photogrammetry software!
@@pinkpocketTV I have used my DSLR and Meshroom for photogrammetry in past experiments. It works really well. My Android phone does not have LIDAR function. Maybe a work-around not using Polycam but following the rest of your tutorial after the the Polycam part will work. I am really excited to get my own 3d assets into UE5. Thank you!
Yup! Really exciting stuff!
thanks man! you're the best
Hey, thanks for watching. Appreciate the support!
Absolute First class Tutorial, just like all of the others, one very small glitch though, and I see it has been mentioned before, and probably an easy fix, but when importing fbx file into UE5... There's No Textures, followed the advice already giving, But something's not working, which is such a shame, I think a few others are having the same problem, could you clarify that part a little bit further Please. Thank You
Good and straight video.
But one question:
i created a metahuman about myself and the problem is that the metahuman doesnt look like me (like just 10% similarity)... how do i improve that he looks more like me?
Best unreal engine 5 channel underrated also
Hey, thanks! Appreciate it!
hey your videos are just awesome and so helpful, just a need of a clarification that in polycam how much minimum photos and from what angles should we click in order to get a perfect 3d scanned model?
First tell a friend or someone to do it if you are scanning your own face. Move the phone 180 degrees horizontally and vertically from the front and the side and always keep the face in the frame. Polycam will automatically click pictures. Then you can move the phone in intermediate positions to get that data too. Also as I said you don’t need a high res mesh, just a basic mesh for defining the proportions of the face.
What a great tutorial! Thank you. I’m gonna try this out soon 😀 Do you know how to export the mesh files and textures at the end from UE as fbx to use them in blender? Thank you in advance! ❤️
You can select the mesh in blender then go to the UV editor and save that texture as a png file. After that you can import that texture in UE5 and add it to the material.
@@pinkpocketTV I know. Just was wondering how to export the metahuman as fbx to import it into blender :)
Marvelous you...cheers
Thanks!
It's all I could think about.
is this not possible on a mac?? the metahuman plugin is only supported in windows?
Please reply me im using ue5 5.2.1 and i didn't find metahuman in plugin how i can fix that please reply
Awesome bro Awesome. Love from Bangladesh.
Thanks for watching!
super helpful video dude, straightforward and effective as usual. But i have a question here, as a newbie using Blender (only use it for convert glb file), why the fbx i exported doesnt have texture, and will it matter if im using fbx with empty material to change the metahuman head?
The texture should be imported by default. If not then you can do it manually. In blender select the model and go to the UV editor. Form there you can export the color map as a png. I think we need the color map for the metahuman to work but I am not sure. Try it without the texture and let me know if it works.
@@pinkpocketTV i did it without texture, the tracking result is quite bad, i had to adjust the markers manually and without texture is hard to place them accurately. But anyway, i can still get a result, but not sure if there will be issue in later animation, will do more tests in the following workflow.
hi bro, so can i import a character from blender to metahuman on unreal engine?
sir getting difficulty
while downloading metahuman plugin please help me out!
2 questions:
1, from Polycam I see my body in colors. But in Blender, I don't see it.
2, importing fbx files doesn't show me anything on unreal engine
please, thanks!
metahuman downloaded in ue, but cant see in plugins, why?
I have selected a neutral pose in components menu, but the promote frame is not active. How can I solve it?😢
Genius :D
Thanks for the!
Awesome video!... does this work in ue4?
super!
Thank you! Cheers!
Hey, can you please make a video on realtime virtual texturing in unreal engine
Plzzzzzzzz🥺🥺
when I import to unreal engine the whole thing is grey like when you're sculpting, how do i show the actual object with the skin colours and eyes on etc?
plz @ me when someone answers this
Did you add the materials when export from blender ?
wow!😮
Thanks for watching!
your video dense of information saving time
Thanks for watching!
Man, I can't imagine you without glasses! You should have added glasses to your avatar :)
😅
Super
Thanks for watching!
doesnt work, it says cant detect import type. no mesh is found or animation track
Ok. Something isn't working here. I have the scan. I'm doing everything you're saying. I cannot for the life of me get my material to export from Blender properly. It just shows up as blank each time. I've done the export image from the UV panel. Its a png. But everytime it shows up as blank. WTF am I doing wrong???
Hey bru, I've followed your tutorial and made my own custom metahuman. But the problem is whenever I import it into Unreal Engine using Quixel Bridge, I lose all added hair on the model (eyebrows, hair, beard, moustache, eyelash)
How do I fix this issue?
What I saw in another tutorial that this can be fixed in photoshop.
Thanks bro
Is there a way to scan using Android?
Nice
Thanks!
@@pinkpocketTV thanks for showing i thought we could scan in iphone means I didn't know android had app for photo geometry scan
There are phogrammetry solutions for the PC as well. I wanted to keep things simple that’s why I used an app. Look into Meshroom, that’s a free and open source photogrammetry software.
What the music at the outro please ?
hay Israel can you please make a video on 'how to add NPC to your game with simple animation' please, it will be very helpful. Thanks.
high quality racing track video please
Awesome tut. Is there any way to change meta human clothing?
For now there are limited clothing options but I think they will add a lot later. You can also use custom solutions like Marvelous Designer to design clothes.
Hey! I love your videos! Really easy to understand but i have a problem, i dont know why when i import my GLTF file in Blender, it does not have colour in it, so frustrating
Change viewport
to what ? I changed to all viewports never saw any color @@metagurpreet
thank you so much , i like this ,im searching for it. can we do it without iphone Brother
Thanks for watching.
@@pinkpocketTV thanks, android phone possible Brother?
Love from 🇮🇳 India I want to develop games and I am learning many things from you
Hey, happy to hear that my videos are helpful! Appreciate the support.
Sir how to Install metahuman plugin in Unreal engine..? Enable option not showing..?
same fgor me
you should be in streetfighter 6 as blanka
Very cool and impressive tutorial sir. I want to create a metahuman of my daughter but she won’t sit still for the photogrammetry part of the process.
can you make a tutorial on how to create a zbrush mesh and then import into metahuman please
Any facemesh should work regardless of program
why do you need to bring this into blender if it already exports as fbx? not all of us have blender
To cleanup the 3D scan.
You should add blender to title also
I came here for your sponsor 😉
to give watch time
Hey, thanks and appreciate the support!
Ayoo.. the end result looks like Matt Damon..
