In MagicaVoxel, the modeling origin is not located inside the model, and this will happen after importing into Maya:Īt this time, please select the "center" pivot in the " modify" tab (prerequisite: please select the model first), which is conducive to the next operation, and then rotate, translate, zoom in, zoom in is extremely important Because the model generated by MagicaVoxel is extremely small in any 3d environment (even in UE4), if you do n’t zoom in, all the bone nodes after binding the bones will almost overlap, which is not conducive to the subsequent operations. Then create a new scene and drag the obj file exported by MagicaVoxel into the scene. Since the upward axis of UE4 is the z axis, and Maya defaults to y, please synchronize the two.

Next, please open Maya, then click "settings / preference" on the "Window" tab, and select again "Preference" (Preference), click "Settings" (settings), as follows, please select z for the upper axis: After the export is complete, we can see these three files in the corresponding path: Mixamo's bone binding is only suitable for the character model with an initial T-shape, so be sure to model it this way.Īfter the modeling is completed, please export the model as a model in obj format for our next modification and upload. When building a character model, please keep the character model in a T shape with arms extended, as shown in the following figure: (no intention to offend, just do it at hand, looking like an early type Jim with a psychoactive skeleton and a mourning banshee antenna ( Dog head))

Before using Mixamo, please first Register an Adobe account and use it after logging in to Mixamo. It is our main tool for building model bone animation this time.

Blender should be able to, but I did not find a relevant solution, If you are willing to provide relevant methods, please leave a message in the comment area), Mixamo, UnrealEditor 4.20.3 (some of the setting options and the interface of the blueprint node may be slightly different from the higher version of UnrealEditor, the specific changes are official Update documents shall prevail) text So, I thought of creating a third-person blueprint with the voxel-style characters I built myself, so I carried out again Try (who is called UE4's MarketPlace does not have a friendly plugin like Unity).īefore I start, explain the tools I use: MagicaVoxel, Maya2018 (In fact, I do n’t want to use it, but Maya has a strong advantage in some bone processing.

By default, the "car collision doll (fog)" of the third-person blueprint is incompatible with the voxel painting style in the scene. When the static model of MagicaVoxel could be imported into UE4, I was not satisfied again.
