Thanks for this great tutorial! One thing I noticed (not sure if it's just me) but when I'm using 5.3, I duplicated the retargeter for manny to metahuman, I have to turn Metahuman's metacarpal to none (ONLY fingers) to make sure the fingers stay natural. Thanks again!

That must be 5.3 thing. I have not done retargeting in 5.3 but great to put it out there for the community. Appreciate it

When I applied mixamo animations to the character with clothing from Sketchfab in the UE 5.2 sequencer, there is a time lapse in movement. The hands stay in place for a few moments, and then eventually the entire animation is corrupted. Any ideas?

[@xrlearn]

Sorry! I have not tired with clothed character

Looks super janky. I wish this was easier!

[@xrlearn]

yeah. I wish. May be someone will write some script to automate this in future!

What version of UE5 are you using for this tutorial, please? 5.0? 5.1? 5.2? 5.3? I think it makes a difference because things change so rapidly in UE5. Thanks!

[@xrlearn]

I used 5.2 i think for this one

[@d_Howard]

@@xrlearn Great! Thanks!

[@xxx1877]

There is no "MM_T_Pose" in my project..

[@xrlearn]

Hmm. What version are you using and do you have starter contents enabled in the project?

[@horyk13]

Hi, thanks a lot for your tutoria. What engine version are you using? Will this work on 5.2? Thanks

[@xrlearn]

Not a problem ! I am using 5.1 but works for 5.2 as well. Even for 5.0 as well.
