Hi Brian,

Give your client a restart, and then you should find a new tab on the Unreal Engine part of the launcher! :slight_smile:

I had to kill the open Epic processes running as well (even after shutting down the launcher), and then re-launch the launcher and the tab appeared.

Actually, you don’t need to restart the PC, but instead of closing the launcher, you need to Exit it in the System tray.

It looks so good. Love the updated GUI. The map secgment thing is amazing. Interested to see how far you can go with the synthesis. Can you create presets?

i have a question toward the full ik solver system, if also unreal have plans for self penetration collision i means something like this

because it’s something i really wanted to see a proprer adress and way to make “modular characters with animations” being adapted for the characters mesh whenever it’s change, like using the same animation if the character is fat of non fat and stuffs like that.
