UE5 IK Retargeting - UE4 Mannequin to UE5 Manny - Quick Tutorial
Channel: MoCap Online
Date: 2023-08-29

TUTORIAL  -  This is a quick tutorial on how to retarget animations on the stock UE4 Mannequin to the new Manny in UE5. We've tweaked and customized the retargeter files included with UE5, with much better and more accurate results. It fixes twisted fingers, elbows and shoulders, unstable chest, to name a few issues. It's fast and easy, takes only a couple of minutes.

It will work with ANY animations on the UE4 Mannequin, not just Mocap Online, as long as it's the stock Mannequin with stock proportions and the stock Manny. Using different proportions or skeletons besides the stock UE4 and UE5 will likely require some further paramter adjustments not covered here.
Please note  -  We include two Retargeters  -  One for free hands and a second for Rifle and other weapons or props requiring accurate original hand and finger placement.
