I have meta human installed but I can’t add a meta human identity when I right click it’s not on the menu.

I'm going to test it soon.

I wonder, how complex the mesh needs to be for this plugin to convert it properly? Is plane with a photo enough, or should I at least cut holes in it for eyes and extrude a nose? Or maybe it has to be proper head shape and texture doesn't matter?

Thanks!

hello, this is interesting. If anybody knows i have 2 questions ;
1- the head mesh is rigged or not?
2- We can add custom body?

awesome tut! it is difficult to scan a face like that one from sketchfab? I mean with "in home" hardware? iphone, webcam etc...?

[Djonsing]

Only the face can be changed? and the body is not yet possible?
