"I lost my sanity making this video" I feel you man! 😅 I had plans to make courses on different character creation workflows, but after finishing the first one I was exhausted... 😆 Congratulations on a well-made tutorial! Love the pace, the thoroughness and of course your humor. 🙂 And thank you so much for the shout-out!
Hahahaha bro we had at least 2 breakdowns whilst scripting and recording this video. You know trying to clarify complex concepts is the most difficult tasks. Dont know how you pulled through groom and clothing and so much more 😂 how long did it take u btw?? And also Thank you for the love brother.
@@badxstudio this level of character 'inside mechanics' requires a high focus into the desired end character design
and the walking guide through character mechanics forest is reaally easy to get lost... good you have 2 minds ! lol
@@badxstudio It took me longer than I initially thought. 😅 all in all I worked for about 4 months to finish the course.
@@badxstudio Thanks a lot guys, great video, but really too difficult, imagine having to do several characters like that, you lose weeks.
11:18 - If 'Import Morph Targets' doesn't appear, carry on with the steps; import file path > reimport base mesh with new file. Once the mesh is imported, the 'Import Morph Targets' button should appear (if it doesn't, close the window and open it again). Then tick the 'Import Morph Targets' box and click 'Reimport Base Mesh' . The new morph target should be in the morph targets tab (again, close the window and open it again if it doesn't appear straight away). Hope this stops someone from freaking out like I did :) Great tutorial though guys, super easy to follow❤
Will it work in 5.4?
Thanks, your a star, thought I was going mad, worked in 5.3 but not 5.4
@@ind_subh I have tried with 5.4, but cant get it to work, not sure if there is a fix
Appreciate it man!
@@ind_subh I'm using 5.4 and the morph targets are working fine
We would love to see your Metahuman custom clothes tutorial, and we appreciate your hard work. didn't expect that custom horn moment. 😂😂
I did this and have one thing I had to do differently! It's *shown* in the video (around 12:36) but not explained, it's incredibly easy to miss. When re-importing the head mesh, I had to make sure that import rotation was set to -90 on the X axis. It was still working either way, but I was seeing a lot of artifacts in the grooms, and the facial skeletal mesh was all biffed out in the thumbnail preview so I knew something was up. Just a teeeeeeny tiny detail for those who glossed over it too.
Edit: Also, for newcomers to blender, joining vertices by distance .001 before you start sculpting helps avoid some issues with seams in the mesh.
I've spent years piecing this info together from random vids and forums, so I really appreciate how much time you've spent collating all of this into one easily digestible and accessible video. Amazing work, thank you x
This was amazing! And yes PLEASE customized clothing!!
this was simply spectacular. one of the best hours I've spent watching a tutorial. Truly what was needed now as the process for customizing metas are a mystery for most. Well done.
Your tutorial is absolutely fantastic! Your clear explanations and step-by-step guidance made it so easy for me to follow along and learn. I can't thank you enough for sharing your expertise in such a detailed and accessible way. You've become my go-to source for tutorials, and I'm eagerly looking forward to more of your content. Keep up the great work!
Guys, this is so impressive! Thank you so much for your hard work! Never seen better tutorials!
This video not only taught me how to make my very own metahuman, but gave me the knowladge to create a whole character customization system, I will definitely subscribe to this channel and learn a lot more, thanks guys
I'm only 6 minutes in and I'm already blown away by the amount of research that's gone into this.
hahahah thanks a lot buddy ....

Holy crap, the face animation is so clean and smooth AF. The tutorial is amazing. I hope more Metahuman tutorials come out. 😮
Thank you! Have you tried the Metahuman animator before? We have a tutorial just on that :)

@@badxstudio Yes, I tried it to make Agent 47. But I dono, some parts of my face wobbled. Wasnt as good as yours.
You can see the result here: ua-cam.com/video/gAOjF8gRwps/v-deo.html
This is a full on course my dudes! Hell yeah. Great work! You really went over everything. Super impressed with all the details, especially the super tedious texture exporting and sorting part. Can't thank you enough for this video as it has helped me learn the ins and outs of metahuman customizations.
This came at the most opportune time! I really appreciate your work compiling all of the steps into one complete tutorial! Thank you
Glad that you found the video

It’s a couple of months away. I’m saving up for a new pc. I’m planning a star wars fan film. You can see my first clip on my other channel. I’m using a 10 year old laptop with a gtx 970. It’s not compatible with unreal engine. My yt channel is Kickback3d

Where was this tutorial a year ago!?! 😭 This is amazing! Great work as always!
Hahhahaha I know right ... we needed it ourselves back then :D
Thank you for videos like this!
Thank you guys for this amazing tutorial!!
Absolutely welcome ❤️
I have no idea about how to do any of this. Yet, I was invested throughout the tutorial. I was like "yeah, I can do this. I can click that. I can download this", all the while knowing that I have a heck load to learn before doing any of this. The basic thing I learnt from this tutorial is that there's a difference between a beginner and a wannabe. Anyhow, thank you for the tutorial. Hopefully, it'll help once I've learnt the ropes.
Hahahahahaha just the fact that you watched the whole thing without knowing much about the workflow amazes us … we love it!! Thank you :) we hope this inspires you to actually give it a try 🤟🏼
BRO - My Star Wars content is about to get an upgrade!
Hahahaha let’s go!! Can’t wait to see it

Most welcome buddy
i just love your tutorials, no other words, keep it up --- pls make a tutorial on metahuman custom clothes as well
this is the holy grail of unreal engine right now. custom clothes, that are simulated. that is the key! cant wait for someone to create a seamless workflow
@@alih611 exactly, 👍
A random talk - are you a 3D artist? actually I have a youtube channel which is 165K right now on which i create hindi 3D animated explanatory videos, the channel is ‘Armature Studios’ and want to implement something new using unreal engine as i have working with UE for 2 years, but for that, I would love to speak some more people who are already into Unreal engine- so you are ok with it, pls reply me I will share you my contact details- it would be just a light talk on unreal engine and the possibilities that can be used by us to enhance my content and other works of us, have a nice time
Great work!
Epic! Thanks for making this
Absolutely ❤️
Thanks from the depth of my heart for accepting my request Brother ❤. Love from India and Great Tutorial too 🎉
Love you too ❤️
great work!
Great video! Lovethe info and the personal tone. Did you ever do a tut about MetaHuman custom clothes, like you mentioned? I would love to see one!
What is for instance the best app for it, Marvelous Designer or something like METATAILOR?
Thankyou for the tutorial
Insane tutorial, andi just paused it at 15´haha. Thanks for this!!!
guys.. amazing tutorial here, really.. one more time thanks for putting a lot of effort on this. but.. still we are waiting for rokoko suit class...😅 great work, eat some shawarma, some coffee and rock it again
wow! thank you guys..
I wish i could like this video multiple times.
You asked 'how was the video in another video'. There are times where you rush through steps and we have to piece together where you are clicking and such. Less hectic would be better. Also if possible zoom in on the areas where you are clicking so we can see clearer. Thanks for your efforts!
Thanks for the amazing tutorial, could you make a tutorial on how to import the metahuman to maya (preferably max) and add a hair rig then import it back to ue5?
incroyable juste au bon moment merci ! the best
T’inquiete frere ❤️
