Thanks Plot, super helpful! I have 2 questions though: - How much does the Rokoko and Xsens gear cost? - What iPhone are you using for mocap? I heard that MH animator only works with specific ones.
The rokoko smartsuit is significantly cheaper than xsens but I do know that Xsens has some affordable options as well. Typically, you're going to be looking at $2,500 - $4,000 for a rokoko or low end xsens mocap suit. However, if you're just experimenting for now, Rokoko has a free version of their Vision software that allows you to capture mocap via webcam! Metahuman Animator works with any iPhone from the 12 onward :)
Do you have any issues of the hands when importing into unreal? right now im having this issue where the hands come in configured incorrectly and its so hard to adjust on the fk hand rig. Also do you have any issues with odd body positions when importing onto metahuman?
I've certainly had an issue with rigs and the skeleton bones not facing the correct way. Unreal did add a skeleton editor but it's given me bugs and I haven't solved the orientation issue just yet. No weird body positions - but maybe try the default retargetter? UE5.4 still has plenty of bugs and quirks so in due time, I'm sure it'll get ironed out :)
It had to be an iPhone 12. Unfortunately, Apple owns the patent that makes the translatable data in programs like Unreal. However, strides are being made! The virtual camera function is now available on both platforms!
Oh god I saw the difference right away AND I HATE IT hahahaha (oh god I'm so sad I'll be using this now, the time...the time!!) Its nice to see an example of it in action, thanks! How do you avoid obscene amount of UE crashing while processing footage? --edit oh nooo billionaire first android zuckerberg footage caught me off guard 🤣🤣
What in the name of Vecna did you do to that metahuman?
