If, like me, you encountered issues with broken hands or the body stretching by half a meter when re-importing Quinn's animation onto the Meta Human skeleton, you can follow these steps. Once you've imported the Mixamo animations, such as Quinn, into Unreal Engine, you can right-click on the animation, select 'Retarget Animation Asset,' duplicate, etc., and then retarget Quinn onto your custom Meta Human skeleton. This fixed the arms and proportions for me. I hope this is helpful. BTW Great tut Quirk, thanks!
Finally i've found a tutorial that WORKS! I've watched so many tutorials that were 5 times longer than yours and most of the times worked poorly. Your tutorial is perfect, easy to follow and clear. Thanks a ton :)
@@ix-fx They don't work if you don't do the retargeting of each bone precisely, but you only need to do it once, then you can use the IK retargeted. You want to scale the MH tot eh exact size of the Mixamo as well as straighten the initial pose to make it 100% match to the other structure, the more you do that accurately the more the move becomes similar to the original skeleton.
@@christiandebney1989 But does it move properly? Because it's the same difference between a sound kung-fu move and break-dance without retargeting the bones....
This is absolutely the BEST tutorial on Mixamo retargeting, you've also explained the stretching issue end resolved in the comments. Thank you very much!❤
THANK YOU SO MUUUUCH!! I been following several tutorials on metahuman animation but my MH's hands were glitched. And I fixed this problem by following your video, amazing!!!
Hey, I followed the tutorial! Great!! I'm only stuck on the pivot point, I've followed every step but it's still floating above my pivot point. (Woman, medium)
@@TRABITY thx and happy that it was helpful! If it works it would be fine. Once it’s done, go to level sequence and bake animation with your Metahuman then I guess it will be alright.
Hey Quirk, thank you so much for the tutorial, I could follow everything without problem except ....for one! I am using a metahuman that has a " female medium unw" skeletal mesh and when I set the animation in the animation mode settings, the body becomes all stretched out. Any idea how to solve the scaling problem?
Hello Randy. I think you should try this. Double click - animation sequence. Click - Skeleton Tree(left top) Click - option icon(next to search bar) Check- [Show Retargeting Options] Select - [spine_01] to [thigh_twistCor_02_r_dyn] *except* root(leave as 'Animation'), pelvis(leave as 'Animation Relative') Mouse R.click - *Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton* Note *Select all but [root] and [pelvis] and change to [Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton] and you should see that [Translation Retargeting] has changed to [Skeleton].* Then save and try playing the animation again.
hello universe. if you're not able to use Mixamo Converter, well I think you should find some other tutorials like 'mixamo to metahuman' for retargeting animations mannually. (mannual retargeting is easy so you could do it)
how do you get the clothes to flow like that? I have a lot of clothes I want to get off of the art station but would love to learn how to make the clothes do what they do in your video

안녕하세요! 정말 멋진 강의 한글로 볼 수 있어서 고맙습니다..! 제가 딱 찾고있던 강의였는데 너무 좋습니다. 그런데 한가지 문제가 있는데요, 메타휴먼을 노인을 가져왔는데 애니메이션을 입히면 체형이 바뀌어 버립니다... 애니메이션에서 리타겟 소스를 메타휴먼 바디로 변경하면 조금 나아지긴 하지만 전체적으로 체형이 뒤틀려버리네요,, 어떤부분이 문제일까요..?

Hi quirk I have been following your tutorial and I got stuck at min 9. When I set the body to ''Use animation Asset'', the head is not following along. I tried the solutions you gave in the comments but it didnt work :(( HELP
hello universe. And I recently noticed that when I applied this to a woman, it didn't work. However, I tried applying [m_tal_unw_body](male mh) to a female metahuman and found that it does work - weird, but it works.
I tried your tutorial again. step by step. I even made a different charecter. it just seems like the charecters that have been modified in the Metahuman creators dont pickup the animation asset. It works fine on the assets that already exsist in the metahuman library but not the ones I created myself. And the ones in the library come with clothes :D dont know how to remove the clothes 😬 (super basic knowledge of UE here)
hello universe, If you have followed the tutorial exactly and the Mixamo animation is not being applied to your MetaHuman, you may not have applied the settings in the tutorial correctly. You can disable tops and bottoms in MetaHuman Creator (WEB). (It is normal that this tutorial should work correctly even with clothes on).@@maddiekarlsen
Thank you for explaining. I managed to fix it. Somehow I was doing the steps correctly, but the animation was not sticking. I removed UE and reinstalled it and it worked :/// Also thanks for the update video. it solved all these strechy charecter and pivot problems I had :D @@HQ-PARK
Thank you for your work. I was going to start with part 2 as I have my own motion capture, though I wanted to follow along your whole work flow to reduce chances of error. It is correct that I cannot upload animations to Mixamo? Anyway, I will continue and see if I can follow your tutorial with my own animations. Thanks again!
yes, that'd be good to watch whole workflow then you develop these to your way. absorb it bro. i didn't understand 'can't upload animations to mixamo' . you can only upload character mesh to mixamo and download animations from mixamo then use them in unreal engine(or any 3d software).
Hi Quirk, I'm having trouble with this tutorial. At 8:02, you mention importing the metahuman from Bridge, but when I do, I can only see the hands and feet, or the head (without textures). Any idea what might be causing this issue?
hello universe. This looks like the body is not importing properly (if you only see the hands and legs, you must have imported a metahuman with a split top and bottom). This is not normal. You will need to try various things. For example, try a different version or try importing a different metahuman so you can check which step is issue, or maybe it just take a long time for loading shader. If you are studying my pipeline for exporting MetaHuman to Marvelous Designer/CLO, you can create MH version without the top and bottom by selecting the MetaHuman in the quixel bridge and clicking [START MHC] to import it, which should be fine as it will combine the body, hands, and feet.
this may still work mate but from ue5.4 there's auto retargeting function which you can directly retarget mixamo to metahuman in ue.(you could find many tutorials on youtube).
@@HQ-PARK Thank you for the reply :) And do you have a video tutorial on how to render inside Unreal? Your render looks very good. Or can you point to me a render tutorial? Thank you
@@ricr8987 To be honest, most of my videos don't have any special render values. I add extra setting somtimes, but I usually prefer to render with the default values or preset based on lumens. My main focus is always to set up the lighting, post-process volume, and camera to look as realistic as possible 'in the viewport'.
Hey, I was following the tutorial and when I’m importing the metahuman animation mesh onto the MH folder I get this error “the following bones exist in the imported animation but not in the Skelton asset metahuman_base-skel Can you help me out
Hello EmpticStudios. This error is most likely due to a difference bone information between the animation you are importing and the MetaHuman base skeleton. This is most likely due to you doing something differently at some stage. I recommend that you focus on the values you need to set in the import, export, etc. of this tutorial and try again. If you have solved this, please leave a comment for others, it would be very helpful for those who have encountered the same problem as you.
Hello hotbergina If you close the distance to the metahuman, the hair will be visible and if you move away, it will not be visible. That's because of the LOD(Level of Detail). *Here's a quick tip. * 1. select your metahuman 2. [Details](right side) - Double click [Edit in Blueprint] 3. [Components](left side) - select [LODsync] 4. [Details]-[LOD](right side) - set [Forced LOD] -1 to * 0 or 1* 5. Save 6. Check!
@@HQ-PARK thanks for your quick answers, i appreciate that. But... even if i am close, the hair is not here... i dont have hair or facial hair at all :((( do you have a discord or something in order that i record my screen ?

Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton really helps. This is the best solution for retargeting Mixamo animations to Metahuman. Simple and fast. Thank you very much.
Try this. Double click - animation sequence. Click - Skeleton Tree(left top) Click - option icon(next to search bar) Check- [Show Retargeting Options] Select - [spine_01] to [thigh_twistCor_02_r_dyn] except root(leave as 'Animation'), pelvis(leave as 'Animation Relative') Mouse R.click - Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton Note Select all but [root] and [pelvis] and change to [Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton] and you should see that [Translation Retargeting] has changed to [Skeleton]. Then save and try playing the animation again.(Make sure you've followed the tutorial video exactly)
Hi, excelent tutorial and tool, but I have a problem and is when I import to MH after all the process the MH is streched like long...it deforms the MH on the animations imported but I don't understand why, I have made from scratch the tutorial like 5 times.
try this one my friend Double click - MH animation sequence. Click - Skeleton Tree tab(left top) Click - option icon(next to search bar) Check- [Show Retargeting Options] Select - [spine_01] to [thigh_twistCor_02_r_dyn] except root(leave as 'Animation'), pelvis(leave as 'Animation Relative') Mouse R.click - Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton Note Select all but [root] and [pelvis] and change to [Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton] and you should see that [Translation Retargeting] has changed to [Skeleton]. Then save and try playing the animation again.
Hi Bro... First of all, I want to express my gratitude because this tutorial has been incredibly helpful. However, I've encountered a problem. After using the 'retarget source assets' option from 'None' to the Metahuman body 9:37, the slipper mesh of the character gets distorted during the animation. I've been using custom Metahumans without clothes and shoes, only with slippers because I plan to use custom shoes. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?" 😇
Hello universe! Thx for your comment. Better checkout my recent tip&fix tutorial. And if retarget source asset doesn’t work well for you, you can just edit transform z axis of Metahuman.
@@HQ-PARK If I don't use the 'retarget source assets' option, I encounter a foot sliding issue. Do you have any tutorials on how to add custom shoes to Metahuman? I'd like to give it a try and see if adding the shoes can resolve the problem.
I haven't made it yet. if you want to use custom shoes, select sneakers when you custom your metahuman in metahuman creator. it would have better performance. @@JackNack-pz5wr

However, I tried applying [m_tal_unw_body](male mh) to a female metahuman and found that it does work - weird, but it works.
I tried your tutorial again. step by step. I even made a different charecter. it just seems like the charecters that have been modified in the Metahuman creators dont pickup the animation asset. It works fine on the assets that already exsist in the metahuman library but not the ones I created myself.
And the ones in the library come with clothes :D dont know how to remove the clothes 😬 (super basic knowledge of UE here)
hello universe, If you have followed the tutorial exactly and the Mixamo animation is not being applied to your MetaHuman, you may not have applied the settings in the tutorial correctly.
You can disable tops and bottoms in MetaHuman Creator (WEB).
(It is normal that this tutorial should work correctly even with clothes on).@@maddiekarlsen
Thank you for explaining. I managed to fix it. Somehow I was doing the steps correctly, but the animation was not sticking. I removed UE and reinstalled it and it worked :///
Also thanks for the update video. it solved all these strechy charecter and pivot problems I had :D
@@HQ-PARK
good to hear that! sometimes, re-install is solving everything ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
go to next step for your dream! @@maddiekarlsen
Thank you for your work. I was going to start with part 2 as I have my own motion capture, though I wanted to follow along your whole work flow to reduce chances of error.
It is correct that I cannot upload animations to Mixamo?
Anyway, I will continue and see if I can follow your tutorial with my own animations.
Thanks again!
yes, that'd be good to watch whole workflow then you develop these to your way. absorb it bro.
i didn't understand 'can't upload animations to mixamo' . you can only upload character mesh to mixamo and download animations from mixamo then use them in unreal engine(or any 3d software).
Hi Quirk, I'm having trouble with this tutorial. At 8:02, you mention importing the metahuman from Bridge, but when I do, I can only see the hands and feet, or the head (without textures). Any idea what might be causing this issue?
hello universe.
This looks like the body is not importing properly (if you only see the hands and legs, you must have imported a metahuman with a split top and bottom).
This is not normal. You will need to try various things. For example, try a different version or try importing a different metahuman so you can check which step is issue, or maybe it just take a long time for loading shader.
If you are studying my pipeline for exporting MetaHuman to Marvelous Designer/CLO, you can create MH version without the top and bottom by selecting the MetaHuman in the quixel bridge and clicking [START MHC] to import it, which should be fine as it will combine the body, hands, and feet.
Hello, thanks for the tutorial, this still work in 2024? are u still using the same process? thank you
this may still work mate but from ue5.4 there's auto retargeting function which you can directly retarget mixamo to metahuman in ue.(you could find many tutorials on youtube).
@@HQ-PARK Thank you :) I found a tutorial about it. Are you using the LiveSync plugin to import and export from ue to clo?
@@ricr8987 sometimes yes sometimes no. I needs to set required software version and someitmes it doens't work in my project. but it's pretty handy.
@@HQ-PARK Thank you for the reply :) And do you have a video tutorial on how to render inside Unreal? Your render looks very good. Or can you point to me a render tutorial? Thank you
@@ricr8987 To be honest, most of my videos don't have any special render values. I add extra setting somtimes, but I usually prefer to render with the default values or preset based on lumens.
My main focus is always to set up the lighting, post-process volume, and camera to look as realistic as possible 'in the viewport'.
Very useful :)
Hey, I was following the tutorial and when I’m importing the metahuman animation mesh onto the MH folder I get this error “the following bones exist in the imported animation but not in the Skelton asset metahuman_base-skel
Can you help me out
Hello EmpticStudios.
This error is most likely due to a difference bone information between the animation you are importing and the MetaHuman base skeleton. This is most likely due to you doing something differently at some stage.
I recommend that you focus on the values you need to set in the import, export, etc. of this tutorial and try again.
If you have solved this, please leave a comment for others, it would be very helpful for those who have encountered the same problem as you.
@@HQ-PARKhanks, found the error, when setting the mesh I accidentally pressed quinn_simple, which I just need the quinn mannequin
@@EmpticStudios problem solved! yai. well done and thanks for letting us know how you fixed this!
did you notice any change in body shape after applying the animation to metahuman? cuz my MH got taller idk why, also the shoes flaps got elongated
check my other tutorial about tips. that might be helpful.
@ yeah solved it! Ty!
hello i dont have the hair when i finish the tutorial.. how to import it please
Hello hotbergina
If you close the distance to the metahuman, the hair will be visible and if you move away, it will not be visible. That's because of the LOD(Level of Detail).
*Here's a quick tip. *
1. select your metahuman
2. [Details](right side) - Double click [Edit in Blueprint]
3. [Components](left side) - select [LODsync]
4. [Details]-[LOD](right side) - set [Forced LOD] -1 to * 0 or 1*
5. Save
6. Check!
@@HQ-PARK thanks for your quick answers, i appreciate that. But... even if i am close, the hair is not here... i dont have hair or facial hair at all :((( do you have a discord or something in order that i record my screen ?
when i open the blueprint of the character , on the pannel of the component (left) i dont have hair, beard or anything. I added manually "groom component" and then try to put them all.., this is not normal....
@@hotbergina if you add your metahuman from quixel bridge then everything must be shown in viewport(that's default).

Hello, I hope you'll reply and solve my issue as this is the best tutorial for what I'm doing
The issue i'm having is after everything is done, When you Add level sequence the Sequence is showing animation in timeline but it's different for me. My character is animating in the level but it's not showing in Level Sequence Issue. What could be the issue? Please reply it would be a great help
hello universe. it's pre-made level sequence for the video. you better check part2 to complete for putting them in your level sequence. I think I need to record whole process for beginner :)
HEY when i put the animaton to my metahuman it streches him to a taller person. is it normal? i floowed the process step by step
Exactly the same problem. The metahuman is stretched in length, and the hips are greatly moved apart.
Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton really helps. This is the best solution for retargeting Mixamo animations to Metahuman. Simple and fast. Thank you very much.
@@PonomarovSerhii where i enable that?
doi use the video and then do what you said?or search another solution?
Try this.
Double click - animation sequence.
Click - Skeleton Tree(left top)
Click - option icon(next to search bar)
Check- [Show Retargeting Options]
Select - [spine_01] to [thigh_twistCor_02_r_dyn]
except root(leave as 'Animation'), pelvis(leave as 'Animation Relative')
Mouse R.click - Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton
Note
Select all but [root] and [pelvis] and change to [Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton] and you should see that [Translation Retargeting] has changed to [Skeleton].
Then save and try playing the animation again.(Make sure you've followed the tutorial video exactly)
thx bro
you're welcome
why in place and not moving?
it will be easier to control location value in level sq when you use 'in place'. it just depends on your purpose.
Hi, excelent tutorial and tool, but I have a problem and is when I import to MH after all the process the MH is streched like long...it deforms the MH on the animations imported but I don't understand why, I have made from scratch the tutorial like 5 times.
try this one my friend
Double click - MH animation sequence.
Click - Skeleton Tree tab(left top)
Click - option icon(next to search bar)
Check- [Show Retargeting Options]
Select - [spine_01] to [thigh_twistCor_02_r_dyn]
except root(leave as 'Animation'), pelvis(leave as 'Animation Relative')
Mouse R.click - Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton
Note
Select all but [root] and [pelvis] and change to [Recursively Set Translation Retargeting Skeleton] and you should see that [Translation Retargeting] has changed to [Skeleton].
Then save and try playing the animation again.
Dude!!! You are a monster!!! Thank you soooo much!!! I'll let you know as soon as I finish my videogame so you can check the result!!!@@HQ-PARK
wow! looking forward to it! @@daniel-vergara-gamedev
Hi Bro... First of all, I want to express my gratitude because this tutorial has been incredibly helpful. However, I've encountered a problem. After using the 'retarget source assets' option from 'None' to the Metahuman body 9:37, the slipper mesh of the character gets distorted during the animation. I've been using custom Metahumans without clothes and shoes, only with slippers because I plan to use custom shoes. Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?" 😇
Hello universe! Thx for your comment.
Better checkout my recent tip&fix tutorial.
And if retarget source asset doesn’t work well for you, you can just edit transform z axis of Metahuman.
@@HQ-PARK If I don't use the 'retarget source assets' option, I encounter a foot sliding issue. Do you have any tutorials on how to add custom shoes to Metahuman? I'd like to give it a try and see if adding the shoes can resolve the problem.
I haven't made it yet. if you want to use custom shoes, select sneakers when you custom your metahuman in metahuman creator. it would have better performance. @@JackNack-pz5wr
I disappeared as soon as I see the word blender, which in my opinion is the most pointless tool in this field
I don't agree with your perspective but I respect your opinion.
hey, im having some troubles, do you have discord or other platform where we can discuss this?
