You’re the best! I mean that sincerely. I got up and saw this released and knew by the end of work, you would be on this like donkey kong, so I could learn it from the best. You’re content is great and I really appreciate you doing this for the community. Also… This reminds me on another project I’ve been putting off that could really help!!!It means it a lot! 🍻

[@Jobutsu]

It has opened the creative part of my mind too.

[@Kedryn]

The applications that this plugin will have in the future are going to be insane! Great video as always!

[@Jobutsu]

The applications it has now means, I won't sleep for a month !

[@snakeeyesdeclassified]

awesome!

[@smudgybrown67]

Sweet, thank you =]

[@ThiagoLionheart]

Thank you very much, i loved your tutorial. Really a great work.

[@chadcrypto2675]

Thank you for this video. Epic has once again setting a new level. And it is surprisingly easy to do.

[@Jobutsu]

I am amzed at just how easy it is !

[@FlyingLotus]

Thanks!

[@techno_shaman]

Thank you for the inspiring video. All thats left id how to add a custom body :)

[@thales9316]

6:58 A quick way to find a good frame is to select the Neutral Pose in the tree view, press F and then hold Alt while dragging to orbit around it. And after click on Identity Solve you can click on the A|B buttons on top to preview the results directly in the viewport

[@Jobutsu]

Thanks !

[@PerFeldvoss]

Cool tool and intro, thanks! Is there any chance you can import clothes,like using the workflow for the body.

[@Jobutsu]

Hopefully in the coming weeks

[@thestellarelite]

I'm so happy you uploaded this! Just found your channel yesterday and will be binging for a while lol. I do have a question, I seem to be unable to import FBX into UE5. I have no import dialogue and I just get a failed to import message. I tried to do File --> Import to Level but that did not bring in the model just a blank empty dumb thing.

[@Jobutsu]

Where is the FBX coming from ? (DAZ etc)

[@thestellarelite]

@@Jobutsu Oh I should have said! It was from Daz I was following what you were doing in this video. I got it working. One thing I noticed was I was trying to select all and export while still in "Geometry Editor". I think this was the issue so no geometry was exporting to FBX format. Once I switched back to regular selection tool and selected for export everything worked. Thank you again for your efforts on this channel. Learning alot!

[@Jobutsu]

You do not have to remove the body. I did it here so I could give emphasis to the fact I was creating a MetaHuman head. Glad you got it working, happy creating !

[@michasowik2438]

I have maybe a bit stupid question but for me it is quite essential. How to make gimbal visible and move face inside mesh to metahuman? I would be glad.

[@Jobutsu]

I do not know the answer

[@SuperlativeCG]

This is what we've all been waiting for.

[@davidgomes4727]

Great tutorial. Question, how did you remove the eyelashes in Daz?

[@Jobutsu]

Just deleted them. There should be a node called "genesis 8 Eyelashes" or something.

[@davidgomes4727]

@@Jobutsu Thank you. I realize that Genesis 3 doesn't have eyelashes separated. So I converted G3 to G8 and that worked.

[@starwarz8479]

Are you able to adjust the height in centimeters? Also length of the limbs?

[@Jobutsu]

1. Not sure. 2. Not at the moment.

[@Deraeking]

Is it possible to use Daz3D clothing on this custom Metahuman? If so, could you do a tutorial on how to accomplish it?

[@Jobutsu]

I am going to play over the weekend.

[@Deraeking]

@@Jobutsu thank you.

[@brad4games]

Hope you will find a way for the body as well, happy playing 😂

[@joehong2792]

After I updated UE 5.0.2, I found that all METAHUMAN characters, controlled by LIVELINK, when opening their mouths or speaking, their facial expressions are wrong and their mouths are crooked. 5.0.1 did not appear before, can it be calibrated? Or fix bugs? thanks

[@Jobutsu]

I maybe found a solution today, will make a video soon.

[@bludbafMcgraf]

This... IS INSANE... Is this what you were referring to in my comment on the other video? I can take basically ANY head and Metahumanize it this way? Does it work with Stylized heads? Bodies? SO MANY QUESTIONS!!!!!

[@Jobutsu]

I have not tried stylized characters yet

[@thales9316]

Your mileage may vary but anything that resembles a human face may work

[@FlyingLotus]

it works with stylized characters too

[@7_of_1]

I tried a couple of stylized ones last night, and it doesn’t handle bigger than usual eyes very well at all, you basically have to adjust them back to be smaller which defeats the purpose for me.

[@thalessabino166]

@@7_of_1 Yeah, eyes are not being fitted at the moment so you might see weird things, but they can be adjusted in MHC

[@joshuacadogan5174]

My meta human isn’t showing up in the creator, any ideas?

[@Jobutsu]

make sure you are using the correct account.

[@moonduckmaximus6404]

WHEN I SELECT BODY UNDER NEUTRAL POSE I DONT HAVE A WINDOW TO SELECT THE BODY TYPE. WHERE IS IT?

[@Jobutsu]

Goto Window > details to display that panel.

[@moonduckmaximus6404]

@@Jobutsu THANKS SO MUCH i ended up figuring it out on my own. i dont see my ''live link'' option in the window dropdown. i have a live link plug in enabled as well can u advise?

[@Jobutsu]

Make sure the LiveLink plugin and Arkit plugin are enabled in the project.

[@lemon_archive]

I'm looking good. Create a consistent person with you and split daz 3d received but specific way. I want to buy a character and I want to buy it from you.

[@Murderface666]

Sir, your voice reminds me of Winnie the Pooh!

[@Jobutsu]

I am fat like him too.

[@King_CATCAT]

Does the mesh have the same topology as the metahuman?

[@Jobutsu]

Try it, i am trying stylized characters today.

[@King_CATCAT]

Thanks

[@thalessabino166]

@@King_CATCAT which mesh are you referring to?

[@respawngamer9417]

meta human plugin not showing up. how to fix?

[@Jobutsu]

Check it is installed from the Marketplace

[@respawngamer9417]

@@Jobutsu thanks but it seems to be available only for PCs for now.

[@Jobutsu]

That sucks :(

[@ANGEL-fg4hv]

Mann....seems like character creator isn't having any love. This season in unreal

[@Jobutsu]

Or... Create a character in CC4 and then convert it to a rigged Metahuman. I have been working on scars and dirt etc in CC4, that cannot be done with this yet.
