LODSync in the MetaHuman you imported resolves any flashing or glitching hair issues.
-
Open MetaHuman and copy the LODSync component.
-
Paste it to your player character (where you would be using your MetaHuman assets, Torso, Legs, Feet, Face etc).
-
Change the ‘Forced LOD’ on the LODSync to 0 or higher if you want lower quality, 0 is highest.
-
Make sure the Components to Sync match the text you have for your MetaHuman assets like Torso, Face, Feet, Hair, Beard etc otherwise it won’t know what to set the LOD level on. (make sure the hair component names on the face match up to what the Components to Sync says or vis versa, they must match.

To enable/disable via BP do this…
