Great video, congratulations! I have one question though... Suppose I have a clothing design created in Marvelous Designer (just the clothes) and I have a character (like the UE mannequin, for instance). How should I proceed to apply the clothes from MD or CLO to the Metahuman and animate it? Let me know. 🙏

@NoClassNoProblem Месяц назад

Thanks! I’m making a video that answers this. Coming this week. However, here’s my best answer: export the avatar without a rig as FBX, upload to Mixamo, select the animation, download, import to Clo or MD, add clothing, simulate/ run animation, save, then live sync.

Hey, I have problem i dowloaded everything as Said but when I turn on plugins in Unreal and restart, window wont reappear with the clo live sync as you have it there. Do you know where could be problem? Appreciate your videos. Thank you

@NoClassNoProblem Месяц назад

I’m not sure. CLO has to be open. Also be sure those other settings I covered in your project settings are enabled.

Hi there it seems that it doesn’t work yet on Mac but I have trouble with the geometrical cache as it doesn’t save on the browser do you know why is that?

@NoClassNoProblem 2 месяца назад

My experience was that I had to save the geometry cache, then go back to Clo, then go back to Unreal and finally it would bring up the save location. It definitely takes a few minutes for it to bring up the save location.

@patricksanse9372 2 месяца назад

Hi! I just figured it doesn't work on mac yet, but I've tried with windows and the garment doesn't charge as an animation it exports as textures and materials, do u know why is that? I've exported it as a geometrical...

@NoClassNoProblem 2 месяца назад

I’m not sure. The textures and materials got assigned to the skeletal mesh and there could be options when you save that which need to be checked on. I will need to look further into this and get back. If you solve it please let us know!

Great tutorial! Do you happen to know how does LiveSync work with UDIMs? I imported the same clothing sim from Marvelous to Unreal, first time with one tile, second time with two tiles. There was no visible difference in Unreal. Does LiveSync eliminate the need for UDIMs or something? Would like to hear your thoughts, thanks!

@NoClassNoProblem 2 часа назад

I have not changed any UDIMs or my UVs. Didn’t need to. Livesync’s power is in transferring animated sequences with cloth sims made in Clo/MD at very low file sizes. You can cloth sim elsewhere saving as Alemic files but those are huge. Livesync eliminates that problem.

@NoClassNoProblem 2 часа назад

I should add that displacement maps need to be reconnected and some of my normal maps don’t always transfer 1 to 1.

@ThePipinaDiaz 2 месяца назад

my unreal is closing when i import and save my avatar or garment, any way tom correct this problem?

@NoClassNoProblem 2 месяца назад

I’ve not encountered Unreal closing, but I did have to update. Are you running 5.3? When it closes, do the geometry cache files remain in your content drawer?

@hilaryalvarez4647 Месяц назад

Love the tutorial! Does this work on UE5.4? It only works on 5.3 when I try this.

@NoClassNoProblem Месяц назад

Thanks! I have not tested 5.4 yet. What happened?

@hilaryalvarez4647 Месяц назад

@@NoClassNoProblem Thanks for getting back to me!! I got a message saying it's not compatible with UE.4. Is there any way you can make a tutorial on importing a single mixamo animation with T/A pose to Marvelous Designer? Is it the same process as your other video?

@hilaryalvarez4647 Месяц назад

For UE.5.3

@NoClassNoProblem Месяц назад

Thanks for the heads up! I’ll test it soon. Guessing a new plugin download from Clo is due. The process is actually the same as my other video. Make sure to give yourself about 10 seconds overlap in Blender NLA for the T/A pose transition.

Hi there, Thanks for the tutorial but when I get to click on window it doesn't sow me the option of clo 3d. I'm running with an M2 max with the 5.3.2 .

@patricksanse9372 2 месяца назад

Actually on mac I don't have the windows option on project settings Could you help me please?

@NoClassNoProblem 2 месяца назад

Try: 1. Be sure BOTH plug-ins are copied to the Market folder and are unzipped. 00:55 2. Plug-ins are enabled 01:29 3. Restart and be sure Clo is open first.

I keep getting crashes for 10secs animations with complex garments. I have like 7 million polygons and nothing it gets stuck at 20% when i save as geometrycache and it crashes

@NoClassNoProblem Месяц назад

So I just ran this animation with a complex garment too. Once it animated in Clo then you should be set. Leave the particle distance at 20 and use layers. Got my poly count down to around 500,000 for the garment. The stuck at 20% problem persists if Clo is not in Simulation mode (simulate off)

@PhotoSlash Месяц назад

@@NoClassNoProblem sadly i tried everything, but the poly count even at 30 particle distance is around 6.8 millions. And yes i also make sure im not simulating when importing

@NoClassNoProblem Месяц назад

Man, that’s a lot of polys. Not sure this will help but an idea is to export individual parts if you could possibly animate/simulate separately. Then you can parent them back together in Unreal. Of course your collisions will need to be adjusted. So thing like a skirt and a top could be exported separately without much trouble. Hope that helps you.
