For anyone that got stuck finding the M_head after the metahuman update, its been relocated at Metahumans/Common/Face/Materials/Baked and it should be M_Head_Baked. It worked for me afterwards
Stuff I forgot to mention: to animate the metahuman head, do +track>(name of metahuman)_FaceMesh in the level sequence, delete face control rig and find animations via track>animation from the facemesh section that is now there. Also, whenever you add an object to the character blueprint, make sure it's attached to something via the Socket>Parent Socket section on the right in the blueprint window (eg: left forearm of skeletal mesh, or jaw root of Metahuman head, etc) or it won't move along with whatever animation you have. So if say you want to put a hat on the blueprint character, attach it to the Metahuman head, then attach it via parent socket to FACIAL_C_FacialRoot

@@Monoville I know your previous video you put the head on CC3 body AFTER the body animation. But now this way animation/mocap of head and body are together at beginning, making facial gestures together with body movements complement each other. :)
can you make new Tutorial video on UE5.2 whit what your showing on this video out date my model keep braking as in using Paragon Gideon body and try to fix the matehuman to the body both objects keep give me red error and the mesh is gone but i still have files ?? i cant use the same BP as i have to keep restart it over and over trying other ways and the software crash`s
Adding to the comment below identifying the new location of the Face Files (Thank You!), I created a duplicate Face file and migrated only one of my Metahumans to it. This is cool if you only want certain Metahumans in your project to experiment on.
It does work, BUT, when you apply an animation to the face (Face_Anim_BP) for live link use, the metahuman head and neck break and merge into each other.......I am unable to fix this, spent 2 days......any help would be appreciated. Try the same steps and try to get live link working.....cant. I did learn alot tho, still cool to walk around, but if theres a live link solution pls help.
Awesome video - I got it working first time, now I cant repeat it lol... my metahuman neck seems stretched.. and now the head moves much more in the same animation vs the body... did I d something wrong with socket?
Don't think I've seen that happen before, but yeah it sounds like an issue with the socket, I think there are a few available for the neck so maybe try each
Very nice! Now i have a question that is a suggestion also: We see a lot of tutorials showing how to attach metahuman HEAD to a custom body using either this process or the previous one, my question is if it is possible to do this but for other parts instead of the head only. Like if i want to attach a robotic arm to a metahuman, or add a human arm to a robot. The suggestion part is, if this can be possible, you could be the first to make a tutorial like this. Because everyone out there is making only the head from metahuman to another mesh. No one does other part and no one does from another mesh to the metahuman (like the robotic arm example).
Not sure how I'd go about doing this but could maybe attach an arm to the metahumam that you animate with control rig, and mask out the metahuman arm. Might do a tutorial along those lines eventually
Not sure if im doing it wrong, but when the camera gets a certain distance from the mesh the meta head and the original are both visable, but when the camera is about 5m or closer it disappears.
I had the same problem and found what I think is a solution for those who may encounter this issue. Double click the skeletal mesh (Belica in this case). Go to LOD settings. Set "Number of LODs" to 1. Hit "Apply Changes" just below. Save and it should be good.
While I follow every step and the animation seems to be working in the blueprint actor, when it comes to the cinematic part of it, it won't show up on the footage. Any idea why? Thanks.
Was wondering if this could be done more simply. I'm horrible at face modeling and Metahuman seems to be the answer for a lot of developers. +1 on this video very helpful!
Will it work on game ready, I created metahuman soldier (Only body) for my game but struggling to create soldier costume. Can I use this trick to change face of soldier pack in unreal marketplace for my game? Plz reply me

You'll need to make a separate duplicate of the base material which you've applied the opacity mask to, and only apply it to the metahumans you want it to. Leave the original base material untouched

Try setting bounds scale for each of those elements to 10. If that doesn't work, try copying LODSync from the Metahuman blueprint to your new blueprint, Num LODs should be 8, and 1 for forced LOD.

In case anyone is still struggling with LOD issues even after copying or adding an LODSync: You need to add the variables (beard, eyebrows, fuzz etc.) manually to the LODSync under "Components to Sync".
@Monoville, Hello, as suggested i tried to duplicate the material but it don't allow me to make one, it is showing me this message every time as soon as i right click and choose duplicate. " The path to this asset is too long 290, maximum cooking is 260, please choose a shorter name for the asset or choose a shallower folder structure with shorter name" This is my path for Metahuman Head - Face, Facemesh, MI_Headsynthesized_baked, MI_Headsynthesized_baked, M_Head_Baked I am duplicating this one M_Head_Baked , is this right.
Yes that's the correct name. M_Head_Baked should be in content>metahumans>common>face>materials>baked. I did a test to duplicate and it's working fine for me

Add a LOD sync component and set it to 0.
In case anyone is still struggling with LOD issues even after copying or adding an LODSync: You need to add the variables (beard, eyebrows, fuzz etc.) manually to the LODSync under "Components to Sync".

@Monoville, Hello, as suggested i tried to duplicate the material but it don't allow me to make one, it is showing me this message every time as soon as i right click and choose duplicate.
" The path to this asset is too long 290, maximum cooking is 260, please choose a shorter name for the asset or choose a shallower folder structure with shorter name"
This is my path for Metahuman Head - Face, Facemesh, MI_Headsynthesized_baked, MI_Headsynthesized_baked, M_Head_Baked
I am duplicating this one M_Head_Baked , is this right.
Yes that's the correct name. M_Head_Baked should be in content>metahumans>common>face>materials>baked. I did a test to duplicate and it's working fine for me
DISCULPA COMO LO HAGO EN UNREAL 5 ESO MISMO?
Can you still use LiveLink Face with this?
