Mixamo Animation Retargeting

[tmckenzie17]

Another user had exactly the same problem: the problem was that the character was wrongly oriented. Mixamo characters must look toward the positive Y axis (in UE4). I suspect that your character is looking toward the negative direction. A quick fix: when you import your character, in the FBX Import Options dialog, set the Import Rotation Z to 180. This solves the issue.

The problem anyway is “outside UE4” (or maybe during the import): the resulting character inside UE4 is wrong. The plugin works only on correctly imported assets. If your imported Mixamo character is wrong before using the plugin, the plugin will not work properly.

This did not fix the issue.
