**Automatically generate a UE5 Mannequin-compatible skeleton for your humanoid characters.**  **No manual bone placement.**

Select one or more characters in the Content Browser, right-click, and choose **Generate UE Skeleton (Free)**. The plugin detects the body and fingers and fits the 64 core bones of the UE5 Mannequin skeleton inside each character, then creates a new Skeletal Mesh next to the original.

**Features**

- **Automatic body and finger detection** , using bundled neural models that run offline on your CPU.

- **One-click skeleton generation** for characters in a T pose or an A pose.

- **Works on Static Meshes and Skeletal Meshes.**

- **Batch processing:** select several characters and run them all at once.

- **UE5 Mannequin-compatible:** same bone names, hierarchy and bone axes, so Manny and Quinn animations retarget to the result.

- **Non-destructive:** new assets are created and your original assets are never modified.

- **No setup:** the UE5 Mannequin or Third Person content doesn't need to be in your project.  

**Good to know**

- The free version creates the 64 core bones only, with no twist or IK bones.

- It doesn't calculate skin weights. Bind the skin afterwards, for example with the Skeletal Mesh Editor's Bind Skin tool. Skeletal meshes keep their existing weights on Mannequin-named bones.

- Facing direction is detected automatically (±X or ±Y).  

**Requirements**

- Unreal Engine 5.8 on Windows 64-bit.

- These Epic plugins, which ship with the engine and are enabled automatically: Mesh Modeling Toolset, Geometry Scripting and NNERuntimeORT.
