Development Pipeline & Plugins

I am a total noob to unreal engine.

I installed the metahuman plugin and I understand it is possible to import a picture of a person to use it

If there could be a simple how to somewhere or if someone would be kind enough to explain it I’d be great

Thanks and God bless

Hey @Sequential000, welcome to the Unreal Community!

You can’t upload a photo straight to Metahuman; you need a 3D mesh! Documentation on how to turn a 3D mesh into a Metahuman can be found here. There may be guides you can find on how to turn a photo of a person into a 3D mesh outside of Unreal, however there is no official workflow for this in the Unreal environment at this time.

I hope this information helps, and good luck!
