Retarget to all metahuman skeletons and use in sequencer

Hi,

I’ve retargetted a Mixamo skeleton onto one of the Metahuman skeletons (eg. f_med_unw). There doesn’t seem to be a base skeleton in the Metahumans folder.

Can I somehow use that retarget without having to do it again for a male skeleton?

And if there is a link re: how to use the retargetted skeleton with sequencer that’d be sweet.

Thanks.

Mmm I think you have a mess haha

skeleton: bones
animations: the movement of the skeleton, data
skeletal mesh: the shape “the flesh” which uses skeleton

There doesn’t seem to be a base skeleton in the Metahumans folder.

Yes! There is a common skeleton, you said well! metahuman_base_skeleton

Can I somehow use that retarget without having to do it again for a male skeleton?

Does it makes sense? This is about the shape of the body …

And if there is a link re: how to use the retargetted skeleton with sequencer that’d be sweet.

We use retargeted animations in sequencer, this is easy once is done!

Take a look at the official documentation, you’ll see is not so difficult! Hope it helps :smiley:
