Thank you for simplifying this, documentation is overwhelming as hell

[mariogreco]

Big thanks man! Thank you for sharing all this knowledge and putting in the time and effort to do so, just subbed and liked!

Im having issues... Im trying to use your tutorial, but my model is only registering a hip socket, and if i add spine to that the neck, shoulder, and leg sockets to not come up. The model has bones that were added in Maya. What do I do about this?

[_siulong]

Once the modular rig is done, I try to load animsequence on the character and convert it to layered control rig to modify the animation but arms and shoulders won't move when animating the spine, is there a way to correct that?

[the_artrobot]

Hmm... I would love to know, in more depth how to customize these rig modules. I was doing this with the rig graphs before, spawning controls of various types with ik/fk switching based on a list of expected joint names. Are the graphs for these modules accessible, perhaps to duplicate for my own variations? Maybe I just haven't dug into the connection editor enough to find them.

Before you can do this the mesh must have a skeletal rig right? Does ue have a way to import a mesh, and give that mesh the standard ue rig?

[jackthewhite]

if people could use a character besides the default out of the box working character that would be great I am using a character that has a naming structure that breaks the modular control rig and no one NO one is trying a custom character

[АннаЛысякова-уо]

Hello, please tell me. I added the spine module, but new modules are not opening, why is that?

[FPChris]

Can you use a control to clean up mocap on a character?

[tommiebennett]

I would love to see the animation tutorial!

[ABentPaperclip]

so.. is this basically just for making animations in the sequencer? does a modular control rig not generate an event graph that can be modified? i was hoping this would be a quick and easy way to drop a few controls in that I could then modify with the event graph but that doesn't look like what this is for.. guess i'm making it manually again

[astropolski]

Looking forward to the animation tutorial for 5.4 changes, gonna be huge.

[noname]

Thanks for the great video! Did I understand correctly - I won't be able to use this tool immediately on a character with a Mixamo skeleton?

[astropolski]

Basically simplified all the backend node creation and made it front end and visually editable... Very nice.

I slogged making and figuring out my old control rig and even then had this weird rotation bug with my arms.

[amigoface]

can you please make a tutorial on how to use rig variables with external blueprint for procedural runtime animations .

or at least give some indications here on how to use them .

thanks .

[PauloSamurai]

Amazing tutorial, thank you!

PS: Consider buying a Lark M2 microphone system. The sound is podcast level and it's cheap.

[ChaseSeaborne]

Could you do a video on making a private multiplayer lobby? I’m having some trouble and other videos aren’t helping.

[marcapouli]

I don't have pole vectors for IK legs and arms

[Jaegerger]

the file must be SK ? how about Static mesh ?

[FPChris]

I assume you have to start with a rigged skeletal mesh? Not just a static mesh in an Apose. ?
