HOW TO INSTALL MY “METAHUMAN PRESET” FOR MAYA
Download the XML file at my GitHub: github.com/virtualfilmer/Maya...
Then install it here:
"C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\HIKCharacterizationTool6\template"
You will then have it as a template option inside “Edit Character Definition” in the HUMANIK tools in MAYA.
WHY AM I USING MAYA 2022?
In these videos I am using MAYA 2022, because that is the latest version of MAYA that the Quixel plug-in support (which is required for importing MetaHumans from Bridge). The latest Quixel plug-in support information is here:

bro i have been lookking for a tutorial like this for weeks now, thank you so much for making it this way, am sharing it with the unreal reddit community in hopes you go viral and can continue these, thank you and please keep it up!
Hello, your video is very good, great for someone who doesn't use English like me, you give very detailed step-by-step instructions. Wishing you good health and always encounter good things in life. Thank you very much
Sir, ……..you are NOT appreciated enough!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😭🙏🏼
Thank you so much for this series. It was very informative, and I could finally get started with Maya and Metahumans.
Great to hear!
I've become your fan and a loyal student- you are the best teacher I came across in the last 20 years
This is a really informative video, straight to the point! I really like to see your workflow in Maya and UE5. Looking forward to part 2!
i was looking for month for the way to dowload this and this video helps me alot thanks man u save my school project
Man thanks for tuts. Only pure knowledge in straight simple form. Keep going 😊
Thanks for sharing this tutorial. May I know why you not just animate the metahuman in Unreal directly?
Currently the “Sequencer” in Unreal is quite difficult to wrangle for character animation. Just a small example - you can’t easily adjust the size or display type of the MetaHuman’s bone tracks in the timeline. So you end up endlessly scrolling around trying to find things. :) Maya (or iClone or Blender) are much more fully featured as far as character animation goes. Thats why even most Epic Games animation samples have been animated in Maya. :) But hopefully yes, the Sequencer will improve!
Thank you so much! This is the best step by step tutorial by far.
Just curious if you can show us how to stitch the head geo to the body seamlessly without breaking the face and body rig.
So I did ,but my controller looking is so small , why is this? how to amplification?
Which controller do you mean?
After I "Load Skeleton Definition" I get an error that I'm "Missing Required Bones". Any idea what i can do? I havne't adjusted my metahuman rig at all?
Metahumans have changed their bone setup since this tutorial - so I’m not sure, sorry :(
What version of maya are you using ? because the textures dont load for me i have to relink them and everytime i try to in hypershase maya crashes of course :(
Sorry to hear that!! I’m using a few different versions, but all work fine for me. Have you been able to solve the problem?
Hello! this is a very good video. Tell me! You don't use livelink to import metahuman into maya, do you? true? Sorry for my English, it’s not perfect. I from Hungary. Please! Answer me!
No, I don’t use live link. I use Bridge. Use the external bridge application to download metahumans (making sure to turn on source files) and the Maya files will be on your hard drive. Hope that helps!
@@virtualfilmer Thank you!
