He is not going to explain that easily. You have to do trial and error to figure it out 😂

..thanks 🙂

sometimes i like go jeju island to relax

can use whatever system , just need a rgb and depth Y ... maybe soon AI will do this and epic games will include this custom video option by default

@@marc1137 What version of Nuke you are using?

@@MotuDaaduBhai can use whatever version 13,14,15 , nothing special in the workflow

normal map? anyways the whites should be greater than 1 , i think soon i will do some video covering some more details about last steps

@@marc1137 Thank you Marc for your reply. I meant depth* map (sorry). Let me explain better. I get depth/height map in black and white 32 from AI, temporally consistent, and very close to the original 3D shape. These sequences of depth maps are in 32bits and I have to convert them to EXR format using a python script. When I do this I "normalize" the range of values form de 0 to 1 space. In this case I am not referring to normal maps (sorry for the confusion). This means that the lowest point will be represented by black color (0) and de highest point, closer to the camera, will be represented by white color (1) in the 0 to 1 color space of float 32 bits in the EXR format. Also, I invert the range because the iPhone uses inverted depth maps (1 farther form the camera and 0 closest to the camera). The problem is that MHA is reading these depth maps in a way that is stretching them in the MHA viewport and makes them unusable inside the MHA plugin in UE5. If you think you could share how to do this final step I will appreciate it. You could also contact me at register.online.100 at gmail It seems that this step works for you, but I am doing wrong with the format that I can not figure out. How do you handle this particular range of values in the depth map and the EXR 32 bits format? Thank you again for reading this and for your kind reply.

always need a metahuman topology matching your custom model , but then could keep the custom topology model to export ,metahuman topology is needed to transfer skin weights and some stuff

congratulations, but channel thing i think is just convert ur new exr to Y with a shuffle node or similar thing in whatever app like nuke or AE

@@marc1137 thank you so much, really work with shuffle in Nuke, and thank you for giving idea what metahuman can use without iphone)

for now i want try build some fake muscle model under the skin to have more collision sliding things going on , and my point is do the things the more simple possible that could be scripted to automate the process for whatever head , then see how could export to UE

yes using the normal nCloth stuff , old tech but very good , and since just need some subtle movements for now , using 3 steps very low for faster simulation, next step is try add some real geometry under the face to act as muscles colliders

Amazing. I'll look forward to it. Keep up the good work!

this is Maya dynamics , not ML , but its the thing to try soon , export all this to UE using this tech

@@marc1137 Cool, let us know if it export well! Maya 2025 Announced ML deformer , maybe it can ease the export to ML unreal.

@@wolfyrig1583 Autodesk has said the ML deformer should only be used for animation purposes. They suggest going back to the original dynamics for final render. This implies that ML deformer isn't top quality enough to use for display purposes.

lot of previous tests showing part of the process

hi thanks but i dont have telegram , can send me some email but to be honest i dont have much free time to work freelance

@@marc1137 Is it possible to buy a guide from you?

Hello?

i have my own tool to modify original metahuman in maya , i use double resolution and custom blendshapes , one of the points i want to try is metahuman look like a 4d scan the most possible

@@marc1137 If you make it look like a 4D scan then you could use it to train a neural network without having to use real 4D data and it will generalize well when the networks sees actual 4D.

thank you! even if probably not many people will take a look, im a bit the anti social media style... 😅

@@marc1137 i am curious if you ever tried face tools from reallusion?

i just replied the same in other comment , and some older videos i show main process tracking the face in nuke

i track the footage in nuke with keen tools so since theres a 3d face there moving similar to the video i can export the depth

@@marc1137 oh super smart! I'll try it out

thanks!

zwrap or face form russian software can do that , but even if its like magic softwares , theres a moment need some manual work to fit more extreme shapes

hair done in maya ,export .abc and in UE just attach it in the normal way create binding to the skeleton

one effect im trying to achieve is the famous sticky lips that in maya could do it in some dynamic way , but in UE the controls in metahuman is not enough so im thinking to try some blendshape tricks but not sure yet , and need try better the shader with all those masks controlling the 3 main textures , but not much time , just hope next one will look better

Men of culture we meet again

i never know when its the last one , i dont post just to keep the channel alive... and these videos are done in some kind of hurry free time between company projects....... future is always unpredictible.........

You can say that to jack nicholson.. its his tracked performance 🤦🏻

for now never since the support is 0 and as i said many times i wont share what i have in the "dirty" way i have..... so its kind of personal learning development that never finish , always something to update to fix to test........
