Thank you so much for this! For metahumans, in the Generate Lipsync animation popup, once you select your Face_Archetype_Skeleton, under Mappings Mode, choose EMapping asset, and for the Mapping assets choose DigitalHuman_To_MetaHuman_Mappings. hope this helps.
Hey awesome SDK and Video about it ! I had some problems with setting that up for a metahuman i created i also imported the audio and opened the lilpsync plugin to select the skeleton i used the one from the face of my metahuman but didnt worked do you know what i did wrong ?
Hey! Please, stay tuned for our updates. We are going to record additional tutorials specially for MetaHumans. You can follow for roadmap and bug fixes here metahumansdk.canny.io/ In your case, could you send the screenshot of "generate lipsync" windows parameters?
Hi there! Aren't you already used to Unreal engine tutorials? :)) So what i did to remap the lipsincing to a metahuman character is: 1. You need the Face_Archetype_Skeleton from the face of your metahuman character. 2. Right click on the WAV audio file and create Lipsync animation 3.Choose your WAV file (sound) 4.Set the skeleton to the Face_Archetype_Skeleton 5.Set Mapping mode to EMappingAsset 6.Tick the Set up for Metahuman box 7.Under mapping asset you should have a DigitalHuman_to_Metahuman_Mapping asset and you should choose it! 8.Generate 9.TADAAA! :) Now the animation works perfectly on the metahuman character (Face)!
Hello currently trying out your plug-in. On Mac once we click generate lipsync Unreal crashes. On windows, nothing is generated after clicking generate. Please help! This is too cool to miss !
@@metahumansdk got it to work sorry just took a little searching !, just trying to figure out how you can get it to work on a metahuman rather than the sample project
it is interesting !!! but the truth is that it is a bit outdated since now with an iphone you can sync both lyps and facial motion... also there is a question here : if someone wants to make a lipsync he also wanted a facial sync or animation... so although it is very interesting (and free) it is a bit useless for a more holistic facial mocap animation.
Thank you for your comment! Actually, we are solving different tasks... use our plugin you don't need create/record animation at all, you just need audio and you can create animation runtime. About facial sync, it's included and we are improving it in each version :)
The live link and other realtime solutions aren't quite good enough for me. Ive been using nvidia's A2F as a layer on top of the face mocap (From Faceware which has better lip sync even than the Iphone link) which for me has slightly improved the lip movement quality. I'm yet to try this one out
Is there any relevant expression file that can be used together? If a simple voice dialogue, the character knows that his eyes are particularly dull, and he needs the expression without lip action, such as anger, happiness, etc., in order to make the action expression that conforms to the real situation. Are there any relevant solutions?
Hey! If I got right, you need different expression for different situation. You can generate appropriate animation file, for different emitions. Right now only calm, happy and angry available, but in the futher more, we are working on it. Stay tune for update of roadmap metahumansdk.canny.io/
@@metahumansdk I don't seem to be able to map the generated animation to my metahumans' skeleton. I can generate files and see expression curves, such as eyes and mouth, but the character's face doesn't move in the animation. It seems that this has something to do with name.

Hi 晓龙纹路 Perhaps you try to use SDK on the wrong version of Engine. Can you share more details aboud SDK version and Engine version? Also you can ask questions in our discord with logs and screenshots.
Hey! Seems impressive! But it just doesn't work. I've followed all the steps and still, there's no "DigitalHumanAnimation Content". Tried clean project, version 4.26 and 4.27. Nothing. Plugin Show Content is set on. Without the sample, I can't do anything.
@@qntmstudios1214 Yup, Show Engine content was on too. I've tried everything and had no content generated. (Tried versions 4.26 and 4.27, with different projects: MetaHuman project and a clean project. I'm using Windows 10 X64). Thanks for answering.
Delay of the animation depends on the length of audio, AVG time for ATL generation is 70% of audio length. If you use ATL Stream in best cases we get a response with the 1st chunk in 3 sec.
Hello, why is DigitalHumanAnimation Content not displayed after I open the plugin and set the project settings?I checked the download version, there should be no download error
Thanks, but where do I find instructions on how to get a "lipsync animation generated by our cloud server"? I assume that you can not use 'any' audio file... if so the instructions are not clear?

Hi Niharika!
Can you share your log file to our support mail support@metahumansdk.io or on the discord server discord.gg/MJmAaqtdN8 ?
I am really excited about this plugins...I can generate a face animation, but there is nothing in it... the lips don't work. Really frustrating...
Thank you for using our plugin. Firstly, could you try used demo scene, included in plugin content, for better understanding pipeline.
@@metahumansdk Thank you for the reply. Where can I get the demo scene? I’ve tried, but can’t find it.
If u want to use a selfmade character, how do you setup the skeleton of your character to make it work with this plugin?
You can use any skeleton settings, the main point to use right rig for character face
nothing happens when i try to generate the lipsync
