Many of us dream of being able to do everything in Unreal. One DCC to rule them all ...at least to reduce dependencies. It would be great to see Unreal catch up to any outside tools to make that easier. It would also be good to understand what workflows from other tools can be transferable to a pure Unreal workflow. I'm still learning, but it certainly seems like the graphs or scripts in Unreal can extend options that are exposed by default. I'm particularly interested in how to do many of the things I'm used to from Maya and Motionbuilder HIK including "fixing" animation in the retargeting step, such as limiting lower limb rotations to one hing axis and puting those other rotation keys to upper limb or foot and hand to keep that original animation sillowette without breaking the rig/deformation with, for example, side to side or twisting from the elbows and knees.

Thanks for this tutorial Sam. You're awesome and an awesome teacher as well. !!

Thanks Sam! Exactly what I needed to get my character working in UE5

The best tutorial! It was very helpful. thanks!

Incredibly helpful and very much appreciated.

You guys made the video I've been needing thank you!!!

Can't wait for the metahuman video

We really need that metahuman skeleton update because we are losing a lot of time for something that you can quickly fix

Where can I find a more up to date video with unreal 5.4 or 5.3?

Great video! Excited to see future Metahuman guides!

Watched the whole thing. Great to see the workflow in 5.x! I'm very interested in getting a metahuman working with Rokoko pre-recorded mocap. It's been a bit of a challenge to piece it together from multiple videos geared more toward 4.27. It's tough to keep up things move so fast. Looking forward in particular to your video on this! Thanks! I was not aware of the IK retargeting process.

I would like to see the Meta-human & Mocap with the new 5.2 Unreal.

Why I can't import without skeleton? the import button is inactive in import dialogue till I choose the skeleton 6:27

I have some mocap files that I downloaded from rokoko's website but they only contain the mocap data and have no mesh attached to the fbx. This makes it impossible to import into unreal engine and every single time I import it. UE crashes. Anyone know any solutions for this problem?

But how can I retarget the face? I don't see any tutorials on that....just live stream

can u give assurance rokoko does not use or access mocap data created in studio in any way?

Thanks for the tutorial! When do you expect the metahuman worflow tutorial to be online?

Hello, I see you show this technology use in animation sequence, I want asked this skill is work in live link? Thank you.

7:30 If you export from Rokoko using a Mixamo skeleton why do you have to retarget to a Mixamo skeleton? Don't they already have the same bone hierarchy?

So cool hey I got question. I did some of mocap through Rokoko and import mocap data. but I wanna edit some part with control rig in UE5. like make hand move further or change leg position little bit with mocap data. Is there a way I can do that? I can't find pipeline or tutorial for it.

Hey Sam, thanks for the great tutorial. It's super helpful. However, I'm facing the problem to set my character to be aligned to the surface. Can you explain how to set a character to collide with an uneven surface or some objects? Thank you!

what about for facial mocap animations? How do we bring those in?

Will you need to add the retarget chains for every animation we import from rokoko?

why arent these export settings in Rokoko Studio legacy?

Hi Sam, Luca Here from S4 Studios. Fantastic video series here! I was able to get the suit up and going super quick thanks to all your tutorials and videos. Just have a quick question. Is this retargeting method applicable to any character model I want to bring in? I.E. A monster from UE Marketplace, or a Metahuman

Thank you! Which version of Unreal are you using? I have left a few questions in the Discord but none are answered - is there a better way to connect?

How would you do this with facial mocap too?

I tried exporting with no mesh and used the Unreal export toggle and it worked fine on the UE4 mannequin. Using 5.1. What's the reason for not doing this? Thanks.

when will the tutorial for metahumans be out? There is any guide or tutorial to follow that uses latest version of rokoko and unreal?

Thanks for this video, Sam! Question. I'm having an issue where after I export the retargeted animation and put it in sequencer, it no longer moves around the space like the source. Suddenly, it has zero root motion. In the retargeter it looks fine, it's just when the animals is exported. Thoughts on this? Thanks in advance!

reserved a spot for the most recent webinar. only to be locked out when I went to join by a message saying it was at capacity. what's the point of reserving a spot if the spot isnt even held? reservation means that spot is kept for me regardless. please do better.

This process is too complicated... I thougth there was an easier way to do this, we need some simple auto retargeting
