Trouble with Live Link Face ARKit and Morph Targets on the ReadyPlayerMe avatar

Trouble with Live Link Face ARKit and Morph Targets on the ReadyPlayerMe avatar

Hello UE Community,

I’m currently working on a project where I’m trying to drive blend shapes (morph targets) in Unreal Engine using Live Link Face ARKit on a ReadyPlayerMe avatar. However, I’m encountering an issue where the face doesn’t change as expected despite setting up the necessary configurations.

Here’s a brief overview of the problem:

Problem Description:

  • I am using the ReadyPlayerMe avatar in my project.
  • I have set up Live Link Face ARKit to capture facial motion data from my ARKit device.
  • I’ve created a Live Link Remap Asset to specify the target morph target for each source morph from Live Link Face ARKit.
  • Despite correctly mapping the source morphs to the target morph targets in the Live Link Remap Asset, the face on my skeletal mesh does not change accordingly.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

If anyone knows how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any insights, suggestions, or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards

PS
If anyone wants to download an RPM for their own use with ARKit viable blendshapes added, use the download link but add on: ?morphTargets=ARKit
