Hi, I’m not quite sure why the face gets messed up. But I’ve found that if I navigate closer or further away from the character, the face will appear normal at some point. BUT when I render out the character, he will have normal face regardless of distance. It is only inside UE5 the character will look like this. You lost the face move. But the neck movement works? I can remember this happening to me, but I cannot recall why. I suspect It can either be that you forgot to switch to control rig on head movement at 2:40. Or maybe you missed some minor step from 6:40 - 7:20. I really hope this helped you out. Let me know if not, and I’ll try to do a deeper dive. Thanks.

Hello, does the face animation still work?

Hello ,I’m afraid I don’t have much experience making games in UE5, so I cant really help in that regard. About the deaden expression. I have sometimes came over this while making films. However, for me it seems that UE5 downgrades the quality of an animation or something similar while I’m working with it. Typically after a long session. If I restart UE, the expression goes back to the original (high quality) state. Not sure if this is the same thing though. Sorry I couldn’t be more of help.

@@UnrealPeik Oh, interesting that restarting the engine has helped you with the facial expression problem. I’ll see if it makes a difference for me. I appreciate the reply!

Thanks 😄

Thank you so much!

Thanks for the tip and info! I really appreciate it. I will definitely try to apply this. :)

Thanks! The priest is purchasable on the marketplace. Though not very cheap 😅

@@UnrealPeik alright, that is so cool!!

Thanks my guy :)

I found that as well. skip ahead to the sequencer section at the end of his video and follow his instructions for keyframes. Thats all i needed to get it to work

Hehe 😁

No, they are free characters on the unreal marketplace. I only used the premade animations that come with them. :)

@@UnrealPeik you are so me 😂 i do the same! But unfortunately i didnt had time to produce more short films! I am saving money to buy iphone x so that i can animate metahumans !!! Have you used iphone x with metahumans for facial animation? If yes then would you recommend it to me, given that i only have budget for iphone x 😂

@AhsanRaza29 haha 🤣 in my experience, UEs tracking of the face is very good, not perfect though. I have an IPhone 12 Pro Max, which works fine. have not tried IPhone X. I would expect iPhone X to work fine with good lighting etc, but i don’t know for sure. :)

@@UnrealPeik alright, thank you so much, kindly if you have an iphone x, can you test it tho!!, if you dont then its alright!!

Sorry my dude, I don’t have one to test. I’d gladly do it if I had one.

Thank you :)

So nice to see that it’s working for other people as well. 😄

Glad I could help you out. :)

Hello and thanks! Glad to hear it. I haven’t tried 5.4 all that much, so thats good to know! 😄

Hello! For me the sequencer is already open when I close the performance window. If it's different for you, you can find the sequencer under content->NEW_META. Or wherever you chose to save it. When you clicked "Export level sequence", there was a box that popped up. This is where you chose to save your sequencer. On 2:55 you can see where i saved mine. Hope this helps :)

Glad i could help!

Thanks! Please do :)

Hello, I do not really have a good solution for this myself, though i found a tutorial that might help you. ruclips.net/video/iUySQRbJJ6E/видео.html&t

I think we have to wait till ue5 is useable. It can‘t be the job of creatores to fix this stuff while storytelling.

@@daisylassie280 i managed to do it, but I agree with you that the job needs to be done by more people. When you do all of it alone, you lose on the creative side of things. Yet I'm a beginner so I don't mind it yet 😅

Np mate 😃

Thanks bud. I use the “Live Link Face” app, to capture my own face movement. I then take that footage into UE5, and retarget the movement over to a metahuman. I can make a small tutorial if you’d like.

@@UnrealPeik sure bro, which iphone are you using bro? Which version specificlly

iPhone 12 pro Max

Hello, and thanks, i use blender to post process the images i render out of UE5. In my next vid, ill add a screenshot of the nodes i use, so u can copy/paste them.

Thanks mate :)
