hi, i am trying to work with the unreal engine metahuman plugin but after installing the plugin, after downloading a default metahuman preset, imported it inside UE and it all works but when i click the -START MHC button (metahuman creator link) on the quixel bridge metahuman tab i get redirected to the metahuman homepage on the quixelbridge website that said to me to download unreal engine that i naturally already have.
if instead i search over the web for the metahuman creator link and click it i always get redirected to the same metahuman webpage on the quixel bridge website that says to me to download and install metahuman
p.s. metahuman plugin is already installed in my engine
If you are being redirected to the Metahuman site, it most likely means that the Core of the feature is not installed, which would make sense, as that selection is done when installing UE from scratch.
To confirm if your UE install has Metahuman core, check the options menu. If Metahuman Creator Core Data is not listed, then please reinstall UE, and make sure to select it during setup.
Hi, I have the exact same problem going on for me. I had never tried using MetaHuman and most tutorials I’ve seen create the characters from the web browser creator.
I was on UE 5.4.4 and installed the MetaHumn Plugin, but I always get redirected to the same website as @elements1993
Then I installed 5.6.
Same issue. Then I noticed I didn’t add the MetaHuman Core package. So I went under options and added it later on.
I always get redirected to the same website when trying to edit the character from Quixel Bridge.
So, should i deinstall everything and reinstall again?
Or is there a way to still use 5.4.4? I do have the plugin installed but can’t seem to get anything out of it tbh.
From what Epic have said, if you’ve accessed Metahuman Creator via a web browser before you should still be able to access it, however it will not have the latest updates for 5.6 MetaHumans.
