VROID to Ue4 Tutorial import / retarget [Requested]

VRM4U Plugin : github.com/ruyo/VRM4U/release...
T-Pose asset (4.21) : mega.nz/#!doQkXYxT!v-QQRW0C-T...
T-Pose asset (4.20) : mega.nz/#!BlA3nCRR!An4EA_IWwU...
You'll learn how to import your VROID character to ue4 properly, and how to retarget your animations.
You won't need blender or unity, just a plugin :)
Let me know if you have any question.

Truly thanks! This could be a big improvement to my personal project, thanks!!!

Excellent tutorial, thank you. Any tips for migrating this to 4.24?

Hello a question, how could you add animations from mixamo? because I manage to do it but they look bad

[@g4lstudios621]

hmm any reason the materials don't work in the scene, I see it when I pull it up in the mesh editor but not showing in scene

great！thankyou~

[@nitroneonicman]

Hey this looks great and would be really useful for me, but the source code zip on the github page does not have anything in it, I can't use the precompiled build since I'm using Mac. Also it would be awesome to be able to have the models use the UE4 mannequin instead of retargeting all of the animation files for each model.

[@carldz6752]

Hey man is necesary the t pose? I hsve animations created for me But I dont know importa tu u4

[@infinithoughts4002]

What if I imported my Vriod Model to Blender to custom Create clothes and animations? Will this still work?

[@jeriahdw]

There's a plugin for Blender, called Rigify. I believe rigify can now export your rigs to be directly compatible with the standard ue4 mannequin.

[@cykzerotv7077]

ecxelente tutorial man and thank you to me but a question, how can you activate the physics of clothes and hair? I have seen in unity if you can but in unreal I can not see that these physical works

[@sockonacab]

Thanks ^^ And I'll explain you how to do this. Check my SAO game preview, the physics is activated :3

[@cykzerotv7077]

@@sockonacab thank you very much, I saw the video of sao in which if the physics are running and I would really appreciate it if you could explain how to activate them for the character

[@cbatzer1367]

+1 How did you get the physics to work? I have been messing around with it a lot and when you import the Vroid character, the physics asset is a simple block. I somehow managed to import the character using Unreal's skeleton and create a physics asset which had all the proper bones and then apply that to the first character but that didn't get physics to work in game, only when I run simulate in the physics asset editor! Any help is Appreciated!!!

Retarget your animtions to the base manequin using the classic way, then retarget those animations using this tutorial ^^

[@mrtesticlease4638]

@@sockonacab what do you mean by "the classic way" do you mean doing what you did in this tutorial and then using the mixamo animations and targeting them to the player like you did in this video or something else?

[@Kennyshin]

Merci beaucoup pour cet excellent tuto ! Tout fonctionne parfaitement avec la version 4.22 d'Unreal. Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas le plugin pour la version 4.23. J'ai essayé de faire tout le set up dans la 4.22 et de migrer le contenu vers mon projet en 4.23, et j'ai été surpris de voir que le retargeting fonctionne*. La seule exception ce sont les materials (forcément, ils dépendent du plug in...). Si quelqu'un sait comment contourner ce problème de material, je suis tout ouïe ^^ (en espérant un jour qu'une version 4.23 du plug-in arrive**). * P.S.: Pour ceux qui se posent la question, le T-Pose asset de la 4.21 fonctionne pour la 4.22 et la 4.23 ;) ** Edit : en cherchant un peu plus loin dans la page japonaise du créateur du plug-in, j'ai trouvé la version pour UE 4.23 ! Et tout fonctionne nickel ^^

[@aphermion]

If you just put the plugin into the plugins folder of your project and try to launch your project, it should give you a message like: "This plugin is for another version, would you like to rebuild it?" (forgot what it says exactly) If so, do the following: Take the plugin out of the project folder, just move it to desktop or something. Then download Visual Studio 2019 from Microsoft (free), in the installation process select C++, should be around 7GB in size. When it has finished installing, launch your project. In the editor go to Edit -> Editor Preferences -> Source Code and select VIsual Studio 2019 Close the Editor. Now put the plugin from your desktop (or where ever you put it) back into the Plugins folder of your project. Now try to launch the project. The message should appear again, but now with VS installed, it should be able to rebuild it. And for the T-Pose assets, I think the ones available for download are still working in future versions, I'm using 4.22 and the 4.21 works just fine.
