Pioneer Toy , is that offset happening when simulation is ticked when playing sequencer?
If yes , it could be "physics" or "collision" , cause it will only be activated when rendering or simulation is ticked.?Yo, that was it. Again you pointed me in the right direction. After adjusting Capsule Component Shape (trial and error) Character remains in place... Thank you so much! :kiss:

Think I bit off a bit more than I can chew, spent the last two weeks putting some non-meta characters together for the contest, stylized as that's my thing.It's part of a bigger project with a short for Unreal, nearly finished Mother and Daughter characters. Mother is from a Daz base mesh with some Zbrush mods, and the daughter is my own model using Zbrush with CC base. Anim tests next week. The scene is set in Downtown NY, and the lipsync part will be in a seedy Diner late at night, overall short will be about 2 minutes. Wrote the script a while ago so thought I would use it and try the replica plugin with it for voices. God knows why I'm doing this. The hair is placeholders and will be grooms in Unreal. Let me know if you guys see any obvious character flaws.
 Hallo clearstream,👍😊 Great Character, Greetings Robert

Hm, I have a strange problem... I used this: https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/dystopia-mech-and-pilotAs there are several single parts; head,... to create character,  I did this to get a functional actor with body and head: Result is a ThirdPersonCharacter... To get the built in animation working, I had to do slightly transforms of the character on timeline:  Not sure if it is related to beeing a ThirdPersonCharacter but in Render those transforms seem to be missing... Here is viewport screen capture: And here is Render:
So, character is clearly on different position as seen in viewport...
WHY??
Any thoughts?
Is there another way to create a character out of these parts (head/body/armor)?
Oh, that looks good my friend. Sorry you are having the issue as I bought this asset a few while ago and have not got round to using it yet. I’ve used a few of his other character models fine like the dystopian soldier with metahuman head but not this one. EDIT: actually just looked at the soldier I used, and what I did was use a metahuman BP, selected all components except the head and deleted, then added the other components of the model into that to make the blueprint, like a breather, helmet, balaclava, weapon etc. etc, I retargetted it to ue4 mannequin and cc3 base to mannequin and brought in some iclone to animate it. Also means you can use the ue4 mannequin control rig with it.

Excuse me Toy, I was not concentrated to your problem because I'm so amazed seeing this fluids movements on this great character and with a incredible camera movements, so did you say ?....:D
Toy, You could do a crazy movies with unreal mate . Com'on, go ahead make us a great movie with all this, I can't wait.
Now, we are waiting for a certain sicario to give you a idea :)The animation is "built in", so not really my work. Though it was tricky as the dev did not set this at "zero" and I also had to scale that mech so it fits. It's not perfect. Will ask dev for exact proportions... 😉
