Summary

In the MetaHuman Creator web version, a lag occurred when changing the body shape of a character, which caused the current editing character to be replaced by another MetaHuman.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. While editing my MetaHuman character [A] in the web-based MetaHuman Creator.
  2. Quickly changing the body type & clicking back resulted in the MetaHuman’s head texture being lost, with the head material turning white with SSS, and the connection between the head and body showing a gradient from white to skin color.
  3. In this state, when returning to the character selection screen, the right-side character display showed the MetaHuman with the head texture, while the left-side thumbnail showed the white head without the texture.
  4. While editing the MetaHuman in this state, there was a lag. During the lag, I accidentally clicked on another character [B], which brought me into the MetaHuman editing interface, but now the character being edited was [B].
  5. Returning to the character selection screen, my [A] character was automatically replaced by [B], and I could not revert the change.

Expected Result

Each MetaHuman should be edited normally without being replaced by another MetaHuman.

Observed Result

It took me nearly half a month to create my MetaHuman character, and it got overwritten by another one of my characters.

Platform(s)

MetaHuman Creator web version

Additional Notes

I performed the above operations on MetaHuman Creator around 6:30 AM Eastern Time on August 15th using this account, which resulted in my MetaHuman character, on which I had worked for half a month, being replaced by another character. This has seriously hindered my work. I would like to request a rollback of the data or for you to provide the MetaHuman MHB file from before my data was overwritten.
