Hi, I developed a Houdini based workflow which relies heavily on being able to import animation curves contained within character FBX files. The curves are used primarily inside of control rigs, similar to the metahuman face control curves. [1] In UE 5.2 and prior versions this all worked perfectly, the animation curves would get imported along with the FBX and would show up on the skeleton. [2] However, since UE 5.3, 5.4 and now 5.5, these animation curves do not get imported and do not …

Specifically for you case, when pose assets are created their animation curves no longer get added to the skeleton, meaning that they are not accessible to control rigs.

Prior to 5.3 they would automatically get added to the skeleton and so, in the control rig you could import the curves from the skeleton and drive them just you with morph curves.

The only workaround at the moment is to manually create you pose asset curves on the skeleton but, if like me, you have several hundred of them, it’s not really a valid solution.

Please feel free to add your voice to the above post and hopefully it will get some much needed attention.
