So glad to say i greatly agree with the two comments below, this turorial was so good, I was struggling to do the same thing with other tutorials, and this one was so good, I actually got it to work!!
@@JonathanWinbush No doubt. I spent hours in frustration trying to figure out how to simply get a single character to walk. You really helped us all out bigtime!
@@MrInnovativeEnergy Glad to help my man, recently I saw a plugin in the martketplace that's supposed to make doing this even easier I was going to look into that soon to see how that setup works
@@JonathanWinbush That would be awesome! The problem I ran into with the other tutorials is that they wanted a plugin for Blender that would modify the movement point names, but it was a mess. I thought "man, there has to be a better way to do this in the worlds most well known AAA engine!
Absolutely what I needed! You are a hero my friend :) I tried so many tutorials to figure this out and this one was the absolute best. You were clear and concise and I followed along step by step and it worked! Great work!
Exactly why I made this one when i finally figured it out. Once you get it the process is easier than most tutorials make it out to be. Glad this helped you out brother 🤙🏾
OMG THANK YOU so much!!!!! When covid hit, I lost my team. So I have been doing all the work. Everything is written, designed, game mechanics worked out, etc. But I have had to slooooowly learn the technical stuff. And you're right, so many tutorials that tried but fell short or are outdated. Thanks to you, I FINALLY learned something. Now I have hope again that eventually the game will get made. First copy is free and all yours sir =)
Hermano me encantó todo lo que vi. El video final con los perritos PUG, que genialidad de juego. Gracias por tan excelente tutorial y tanto entendimiento para con nosotros los noob xD
@@JonathanWinbush watched many other videos on regretting characters in UE4 but you finally nailed it Jonathan! makes complete sense and spot on! BRAVO!
@@redshift3696 It's funny because I watched a lot of videos the past few days and none of them really had the process streamed line it was so all over the place so when I finally got it nailed I'm like ok I need to put this out because its so simple but yet everyone seems to make it overly complicated.
Thanks man I am working on something Like this and this method seem so save more time I downloaded all the animation in mixamo run walk fall guess I didn’t need to
@@JonathanWinbush If I rig a character I made in Blender, or download a rigged character from somewhere, would I follow these same steps? Just adjust for how the bones are labeled?
My character is in th A pose, but not a definitive match for the UE4 rig, so I had some odd issues with limbs looking broken. I tried to straighten the arms and legs in the ue4 rig in Unreal editor, but theres still some wonkiness to the arms and legs. I set the retarget to animation scaled as the char is bigger than the UE4 rig. It does move around ok though, so I possibly need to better align the ue4 rig pos or just create all my own anims. My rig has the same structure as the UE4 rig, but some orientations are not the same. Minor issues really, but this was a great vid, helped a lot.
@@JonathanWinbush I made the rig myself. The ue4 structure is pretty much the same as mine, I have some extra bones for the toe, jaw etc. I have successfully retargeted it, its just the poses are not close enough I reckon. I mostly have done what I needed to do, so will have a rig that matches the UE4 exactly, including all orients, which I will use for some chars, but will use my own rigs and anims for my own projects. I have my custome rig in and working with all assets made for him in Maya/fbx, so its not stopping me moving forward. Was good to learn as many ways as possible however and its straightened out some areas i was unsure about.
Okay, so what do you do if the hands limbs are janky after the retarget? They both have the same pose and the animations work. But not well. Is there a way to make animation for custom skeletons?
@@JonathanWinbush Hmmm, i suppose this is gonna call for some applied methods here since I dont use maya or max, It supports FBX skeletons so I guess... I'll just have to start my experiment there. Thank you
@@JonathanWinbush Old blender is my specialty, yeah I'll see if it likes my FBx...es...FBXs, I'm on the vroid train and the import method is super convenient however it only works on normal sized characters, make a small child and its like nope. Which is weird.. but to be honest Im looking forward to the FBX because the body straight from vroid is kinda lame, and I like to edit mine , body and clothes. Oh whoops sorry I didnt mean to rabble on like that.
Great TuT WINBUSH! THX! I have one comment or question about the hands of your character (17:46 you can see it when the arm is in front of the yellow legs ). I am having the same issue with my character, it has this weirdly bent hands. Is this a retargeting or bone problem?
@@JonathanWinbush I have that but i think it's not connected to Unreal. It's trial is ended so i cant test it. Do yo know any free software where i can do motion capture with? Every software i see is paid which i can't afford right now to just test the motion capture. Thanks!
When I Select humanoid rig in retarget manager, I dont see any bones. I dont think ive ever seen bones there no matter what settings I change. Any ideas why? Im using 4.72
Is there a video for replacing the mannequin with a custom made character mesh auto rigged from Mixamo? I followed this tutorial perfectly but the character was all wonky. Please help Winbush :c
Hello, I have imported a pianist character from Mixamo models into Unreal Engine 4. But, I am not OK with the angles of the arms and totally the posture of the character. Is there any way to recorrect these issues manually?
I selected the same model from mixamo but at 10:55 I can not see "T pose skeleton". I have to untick "show only compatible skeletons" then I can see and click it. when i click retarget my animations are all same with head tilting and messed up.
Great tutorial! but one question: How can you implement this in Sequencer? I mean, if you create a simple sequence of your character walking around the city and then you want to add cameras to the animated sequence, how can you import this animation into Sequencer? Thanks for sharing your work with us!
Good question. I've not tried it yet but I'd think you could use the take recorder to film it similar to how I recorded my hand held camera a few tutorials back. I found this in the Unreal Docs might seems easy enough docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/AnimatingObjects/Sequencer/HowTo/SequenceRecorder/index.html
I have watched your video as well as 3 others, on bringing in a Mixamo Character, and once i have it in it is transparent, all the textures seem to be there, but it is transparent, is there a fix for this in Unreal?
Hey Man, I really enjoy all you videos, I was wondering if you can give me some guidance. I have purchased the survival game kit v2 from the market. I also purchased the rifle pro pack and pistol Pro pack. My current character has rifle and pistol basic animations currently. Can you tell me what would be the process to follow to get the animations from these packs to my character. I tried swapping out the animations in the blendspace graphs accordingly but it didn't affect my player. I'm thinking i have to make a new animation blueprint but Im stuck. I don't know where to start. Im a newbie obviously. A little guidence would take me a long way. I've been messing around for days with no results. I don't know why these packs don't come with some guidance to tell you how to integrate the animations to your existing character. Even the MOCap packs.
Thanks for the support. I don't really do game dev stuff I'm more on the cinematic side but my one friend might be able to help more in this realm th-cam.com/users/LoganPinney
Hi Winbush! Thank you so much for the tutorial! It worked as expected and I'm very glad. Apparently my character's feet go through the ground, do you know how to resolve that? Everything works but the feet are inside the ground when idling.
@@JonathanWinbush it shows up when I uncheck "show compatible skeletons" (or whatever that option is). I'm not familiar enough with this to know what would be incompatible at that point. Do you have any thoughts on that?
Hey I know it's a bit late to ask. But do you know why the rig is not visible when I package it to HTML 5? And if you can help me make it visible. Thanks
To anyone who may know or could point me in the direction to look? following this great tutorial but I know because it is a year old may run into some kinks. When I export my character from maximo using the T pose animation that was suggested to use, import it into UE4.27 and say MS 3d paint will only have the model in the A pose thus you end up having to retarget your model as well as the mannequin in UE. Was curious if there was something I am missing? Then my second question I have not found how to do without messing up the entire character and have to start over again. When importing your character to be retargeted in UE, you can adjust the scale so it fits. But when testing out animation exported from maximo with the same character they are messed up (Ex. Punch animation brings in a big version of the character doing the animation and the Z axis is off. Not sure what could be causing since in the export popup yo select the skeleton to use which is correct for the stock mannequin animations. Any suggestions are welcome.
@@JonathanWinbush I really appreciate the quick response, but I'm using 4.27 takes 2 hours for my hardware to do compile shaders in 5😅. So far having found a plugin by the name of maximo to see if it would work with 4.27 in the UE market place so, but still looking.
