Hello,

I have been able to animate the face and body of a Metahuman using Iclone 8 to Unreal 5.3, but the animations are in place... so if I have the metahahuman kit avata walk in Iclone, the Unreal Metahuman walks, but only in place it does translate the position.

Am I missing something?

Add these nodes to your MH BP , I skipped the video to the right start point : https://youtu.be/N7i40HzZlsc?t=260

That upper section with those notes for Root, body, legs, torso do not exists.

I cannot make those changes those nodes are missing.

Are you using older Meta Humans? Then you should upgrade them in MH Creator.
Did you add the Meta Human Kit to your UE project and override ? : https://www.reallusion.com/iclone/live-link/unreal-engine/download.html
Here is how the BP should look like ( latest Meta Human) :

Yes... using Unreal 5.3, with the latest MetaHuman Plugin... the Metahumans are the latest

Here's a screen shot of what I see when I edit a latest Metahuman Blueprint:

Thanks for quick replies by the way... I don't know why I do not see these nodes for the metahuman components... and I have Unreal 5.3 installed on 3+ computers fully updated... the same on all of them.

Your left pane has components of the methahman, but mine dont... why?

I will try the video idea... but there are other areas that I run into that I need that section to appear.

Name of Metahuman
--Root
 --Body
     Feet
     Legs
     Torso

Face
    Everylashes
    Fuzz
    Eyeybrows
    Hair
    Muschaste
    Beard

I don't see these nodes...can you expalin why?
