download link not working, any update on this?

[@psychoticgiraffe]

blendshapes are very frustrating to make do you suppose you could do a video on some kind of script that will auto generate the blendshapes for tweaking I haven't found a tool that does this, it might need a custom python script.

[@Ananggadipa]

@@psychoticgiraffe have you tried FaceIt plugin for Blender?

Thanks for making this available for download. You just saved a lot of people major frustration!!

yea hey creator just responded she will start naming them per apple ar kit yay!!!

Hi J, I have a simple Mixamo running animation on my character and just now added a live link animation to said character but what happens is the face mesh stays in one spot while the rest of the body responds to the mixamo animation I'm just wondering if it is possible to use a Mixamo animation while having a live link face animation in unreal?

[@gabrielsanayeh3177]

A quick question, do you need to have the eyes and eyelid collapse with the body to make the blendshapes or could it be differents objects ?

[@thoughtsbecomeyouractions]

My man started counting in German!!! :))) For a second i thought another youtube video started hahahaha SICK TUTORIAL

[@goldennboy1989]

I suggest you create a datatable for the mapping. Just create a simple structure containing just a variable of type name and create a datatable for it. Then just use the Get Data Table Row node to get your mapped name. Much easier maintaining a datatable then creating 52 nodes in extreme cases :D

[@EUROSONICO]

bro may i asking u a question i do the blendshapes in blender the name exactly like arkit i dont have to create a bp remap asset or yes?

[@anthonycondegni2091]

how did you get the things in the Morph Target Preview to show? The MouthKiss, etc, they are not showing for me it is just blank in that section. I imported a head from blender into unreal and I'm trying to use live link face. I tried creating a skeletal mesh with the automatic export in unreal, I don't really know what to do.

[@ninomancuso7021]

Are you able to adjust the max and min scale on the morph targets in unreal?

[@th3messiah]

Thanks for the great tuts, quick question. in the Remap blueprint is it possible to drive more than one Return Node with a single Pin? My characters eye and eye lash are separate morphs I would need Eye Blink Left to drive both. I tried creating a second pin with the same name but it doesn't seem to work that way. Any Ideas?? thanks again for the awesome tutorials.

[@vespo1427]

good stuff. is there a way for this to work in a packaged project?

[@LSY98989]

Hey, I want to use an animation sequence instead of live link, I have a animation sequence for ARKIT character and I want to get it work for my custom character with difference set of morph targets. How do I do this?

[@GoraGames]

Good stuff, thank you for u r work ❤️👍

[@Jsfilmz]

your welcome! The dev said she will hopefully start including standard apple ar kit for future characters so you wont have to the renaming

[@GoraGames]

​@@Jsfilmz that's nice, i also have to update Annabel, Tom and Carolin... But it's kinda new. What we need is a fix international norm. Its impossible to support all. Love your work, keep rolling :)

Dude is there a part two or did you just decide not to finish the video? Because this was amazing until tje very end

[@psy237]

boohoo, creating 52 blendshapes... seriously^ and there I thought the implementation would be easier... guess I'll stick to better facial animation options... thanks a lot for the overview :)

[@TECHTOUR]

Bro can you make a video on facial expression using live link using facial bones(by pose assets)

[@Jsfilmz]

can you show me an example of what you mean?

[@TECHTOUR]

@@Jsfilmz I don't have any but I have read that we can create own blendshapes using facial bones with the help of pose assets

@@TECHTOUR oh got cha ill look into it when i get a chance

[@vubangers]

UE4 animation and film making is big rabbit hole to enter. Next you will be hooking up Houdini Engine to UE4 for VFX , Using a VR headset to shoot the scene with a virtual camera and exporting the render to Davinci Resolve for colour grading.

[@Jsfilmz]

i think houdini is in ue already iirc

[@TV-pw1dd]

Good afternoon. I want to learn face animation in UE. It works for me with iPhone live link face and metahuman. But I want to make characters in a blender or buy them, and use live link face to animate them in UE. I learned how to make a mesh in blender using the faceit addon and animate it. I also bought a character for UE with a facial animation function. But I can not animate all this in UE. The iPhone is on, the character does not respond. I think it's a BP error. I've looked at KZbin tutorials and it doesn't work. I don't know where the mistake is. I need a teacher to guide me. The lessons cannot tell where I'm wrong (. Tell me how to be. Thank you!

Is there any solutions with facial mocap without iphone ?

[@Jsfilmz]

yes manual bro. want a tut?

@@Jsfilmz Yeah, but I guess you are talking about blendshapes? Cause that's the only way of the "manual" facial mocap I know 😀

The live link face works with the 8th generation ipad which doesn't have lidar so i think arkit supports most apple devices
