In this video I go over how you can set up the MVN Live Link plugin from Xsens into Unreal Engine and retarget that data onto the Metahumans.
I also show how you can adjust the Tpose and Remap asset in order to fine tune your data.
Thank you to Arsene from Manus for showing me how to set up the Tpose, to Katie Jo from Xsens for showing me how to offset the Tpose and adjust the remap table in order to fine tune the data, to Pixel Prof for the pro tip on how to record only body data, and to Simon Kay, the Mobu ninja for sharing his mocap knowledge and feedback.
Special thank you goes to Puget Systems and NVIDIA for this incredible virtual production / motion capture workstation, enabling me to work and create with so much ease with the Metahumans and in Unreal Engine.

Very easy to follow way of explaining things. Thank you.
I've been focused on learning Blender and Iclone but you do inspire me to keep Unreal Engine as a future option. Your videos are really put together well and are informative -Thank you for your time and effort!
Hi! Thank you so much! Actually Blender is a great tool to know. It will make creating in Unreal even more beneficial for you. I wish I had more time to spend in Blender. Keep doing what you are doing. It will be much easier for you to pick up Unreal with your 3d skills;)
Amazing! Thank you for such detailed tutorial :)
That is an amazing retarget to the MetaHuman, well done!
Thank you soooo much!!
JUST saw the Xsense Webinar...WOW, they really blew you up! That was way more than a shout out! Congratulations on that!

You are awesome!
What a great video! It was such a pain to do the remapping and select all the bones, and your tips just saves tons of time
Thank you, Roger! Happy to help!
This is one of the hardest elements to find consistent and clear detail on, great video!! Would love to see one on the Manus glvoes and getting them mapped into Xsens MVN perfectly (so touching fingertips captures perfectly).
There is an easy calibration trick you can do in order to achieve this. th-cam.com/video/_t3dShydOV4/w-d-xo.html skip to 3:50
Can't wait to check this out!
Right back at you, with your amazing tuts!
Nice channel. A lot of good content and you present very well
Thank you so much!
You make it seem so easy! Well done girl.i wish i cound find a visual artist anticipating to cooperate with an environmentalist as myself to make some metanature projects!
Thank you very much for showing these steps 👍🏻❤️
Thank you so much!
Oh my goodness, that copy and paste thingamajig is magic. Thank you!
lol I felt the same way when I discovered that trick!
It's reeeeaaaaaallllyy helpful! Thanks!!!
Very well explained. Thank you so much 🙏
My pleasure!
Great tutorial - thanks !😊
Awesome I'm looking forward to trying this myself 🤙🏿
Thank you so much, Jonathan!
Great video and really easy to understand and follow! Out of interest have you found a way to match the skeletons scale so that things like push ups and hand interactions look good. Atm there is a difference in scale between the xSense input skeleton and the MH skeleton that makes the animation look off for me.
Thank you so much!
thank you. keep it up!
Thank you for your support!
Thank You😍
Pleasure is all mine! Thank you!

Hi Gabby real quick question; I recorded my takes but noticed my T-Pose was off. I made the corrections, but my animations aren't updating with the new pose. Any way to get my recorded animations to conform to the updated Metahuman T-Pose?
hello i have the xsens suite but i don't have the mvn live plugin , i can only save my motion into a mvn file , i only have the mvn record , is it possible to put a mvn file into unreal engine and put it into a selfmade charachter (made with cc4) so i can bring my motion into it ???
hi this is amazing !! i wnat notepade where is?
Would you mind share your txt file?
Is it possible to retarget MVN to the UE5 Mannequin instead of Metahumans?
Is there any affordable alternative for mocap?
Hi FW..would you mind sharing your copy/paste list? On a dropbox or somewhere so the formatting stays intact? Would you mind? Or even if you sold it somewhere.
OH! just saw your Discord note! thankyou!
hello i have a question , i would like to use my xsens suite with the reallusion program with special plugin , do i need to downlaod mvn analyze and mvn animate in my situation ?
You should already have MVN Animate and you will need MVN Plus or Pro for live link capabilities. I do not believe MVN Analyze is necessary for this.
@@FeedingWolves when i click on mvn app i get MVN Record and cannot login into motion cloud because have no subscription . The salesman of my xsens suite told me he could make a quotation for a year license . Can i only get the animate plus subscription through my sales men ? or can i get it online ? I already filled in a form online for a subscription but i don't get anything in my e-mail
@@artificial374 You will want to talk to their sales or support for questions like these as I am not sure.
Hello,
I am currently utilizing an MVN Link suit, equipped with the Animate Pro software. I've successfully integrated it with Unreal Engine and achieved a successful linkage to control the mannequin through Live Link. However, I am encountering some difficulties when attempting to link the Metahuman.
Despite several attempts following your instructional materials, along with Movella's tutorials - which includes additional steps for linking the Metahuman, I'm yet to accomplish a successful linkage. This perplexes me, especially considering the previous successful interaction with the mannequin.
Given that I am utilizing Unreal Engine version 5.1.1, I am curious if there may be specific considerations or steps I might have missed, or if there are any known compatibility issues.
Any guidance or insight that can be offered would be greatly appreciated. Love your work!
Kind regards,
Siar
Try changing the Metahuman LOD to 1.
@@FeedingWolves Thanks for the replay. I have already changed the LOD to 1 with no effect unfortunately.
@@SIARSEDIG I would check the step at 7:30 where you assing the Metahuman Remap asset. You will need a separate Remap for the Metahuman. You might also want to look at this video at 4:41 th-cam.com/video/BXMyE7OIyhk/w-d-xo.html
@@FeedingWolves Thank you very much. I will try it out. Thank you for your time.
@@FeedingWolves I've got it working now!
Thank you very much for your time and I wish you all the best in your future work.
Kind regards,
Siar
Do I need MVN ANimate Plus or Pro, to use the Xsense MVN Live Link or is MVN Record enough?
In order to stream live data, you will need either the Plus or Pro version.
Whats the point of MVN Record, if you cant do anything with it? Not even safe in FBX. Why there is not a cheaper version. Not everyone needs an intensive cloud with all that functions.@@FeedingWolves
I have a problem, Metahuman uses Xsens livelink,metahuman's elbow is very twisted, do you have any solution?
In the Remap Asset enable "Is Forward Y" checkbox.
