In this tutorial, we will learn how to create motion matching in Unreal Engine 5.3 with AI-generated animation. I'll show how to install the Motorica plugin and how to use Blender to upload curves to generate animation. We'll create a motion matching character, add animations to the database, enable debug trajectory, retarget animations, etc.
You can skip the Motorica Plugin part if you don't want to generate your own animation.

@@jourverse Hi, I like what you are doing, I followed the tutorial until 17 minutes 10, I am stuck at this place, I import the animation on the Motorica skeleton and when I visualize the animation, there is nothing, neither animation nor mesh. Can you explain to me how to resolve the problem and where I must have gone wrong in the import?

Hello, thanks for the vid, Is it possible to import our own animation and just rely on Motorica solely to make the adjustments to it based on the motion?

@jourverse 3 месяца назад

It isn't possible to import your own animation style and adjust using Motorica.

@jamesonvparker 3 месяца назад

I sat down to follow along with your tutorial today. I have a question. First, thank you for creating the animation assets. I want to create the same collection of animations but with a different style from motorica. Does that mean I'll need to generate each animation through Blender, then rename the armature root to reference, and export every necessary animation all over again? Or is there a way to make use of all the trajectories you've created, and just use them all to regenerate with a different motorica style, all in one go?

@jourverse 3 месяца назад

I mostly use the Motorica plugin's preset mode in Unreal Engine for generating short animations with 4 seconds duration. When I need longer animations and ones with simple movements, like idle or running straight for 10 seconds, I switch to the keyframe mode in the plugin. Only a few animations that use dance card are generated using Blender's curve upload to the Motorica website. This is because it's easier for me to keyframe the curve in Blender, and I couldn't upload custom curve from blender using the plugin. These Blender-made animations are stored in the 'DanceCard' folder in UnrealEngine, all named 'Export' since they were exported from Blender.

@jourverse 3 месяца назад

Here are all the Blender curves that I used. Besides these, you need to regenerate them inside Unreal Engine using a similar name to the animation's name. For example, if the animation is named 'Circle', the preset type should also be 'Circle', and the number after the name mostly indicates the degree of the animation. I typically use a speed of 4m/s for running animations. Experiment with it; you might get easier to control and smooth transition movements than mine. drive.google.com/file/d/1ISvXbh7IjYBJaB5jVvARS8hcmNUgSmef/view?usp=sharing

Hello , thank you for your tutorial, i have a question, Can i change the mesh of the character like put m'y own character and still get the motion matching ?

@jourverse 3 месяца назад

It is depend on your character skeleton. If your character have the same skeleton as unreal engine mannequin. You can retarget these animations to unreal engine mannequin and use with your character.

i need your help, i'm trying to recreate these animations you provided but with the zombie style so i can make the same locomotion you did but with zombie animations, but the problem is; when i try to import your animations into my unreal in order to open them in the plugin so i can try and recreate than as close as possible (but with the zombie style) for some reason in that part where i have chose the mostudio skeleton it simply doesn't show up, there's no mostudio skeleton on my unreal '-' what am i doing wrong? can you help me understand what i'm doing wrong? or would you be kind to make these same animations but with the zombie style? you would be helping me a lot, but if it's too much work don't worry about it (you already done enough making this tutorial) i just don't understand why there's no mostudio skeleton for me to choose when importing...also can i talk to you? do you have discord?

@jourverse 3 месяца назад

You need to install the Motorica plugin to Unreal Engine 5.3 and set up your Motorica account in the settings to get the Motorica Skeleton. Then, import those animations. To create a zombie style, you need to regenerate all animations one by one.

@jourverse 4 месяца назад

The motion matching node and trajectory in UE5.2 differ from those in UE5.3. While this functionality will work in UE5.2, slight modifications are necessary. I recommend to follow tutorial tailored for UE5.2 usage.

@jourverse 3 месяца назад

You need to retarget animation from Motorica Skeleton to Metahuman skeleton use RTG_metahuman_MoStudio for IK Retargeter. And create new animation blueprint, database config, database that use metahuman skeleton. ru-vid.com3tZlb98ABmM?si=tqPzuNXSso9uCt17 (At 41:54) in this video, you can see many skeletons that we can retarget, including Metahuman.

Hi, I became your Patreon supporter, really enjoying your content, but I need a little help. In this case, regarding the video, when I run the project, I notice there are some noticeable stutters in the movement, especially when the character is running. I even noticed a bit of it in your video as well. Is it possible to fix this? Please help me, sorry my bad english

@jourverse 3 месяца назад

For now, I still can't figure out how to get the best results from motion matching. Try experimenting with the settings in the animation blueprint's motion matching node and motion matching database config. We need to balance between smooth animation and the responsiveness of the movement. I noticed that when I increase the blend value in the motion matching node of the animation blueprint, the character becomes too unresponsive. When Epic releases the sample project, I'll take a look at their settings. Thank you for your support.
