Help using animation asset

[echo field]

A while ago I bought an animation asset bundle and im trying to use it , the problem is that in both ue4 and 5 i get this message "Could not find the skeleton for "Name of the pack" Would you like to choose a new one ? When i choose the new skeleton ( i tried both the ue4 and ue5 mannequin ) the animation doesnt work i just see the mesh in t pose , ive tried to replace every skeletal mesh with the ue4 default but doent work , I also tried checking the file paths and they are correct , i honestly dont know what to do , i dont want to pay 80 bucks for the new version of the asset

When you are importing it then you have to choose the skeleton there

[echo field]

Its a .uasset Animations , I copied the folders into the project itself

[raw crown]

Otherwise migrate it into your current project

[echo field]

I cant migrate it , theres no original project where it works

I used it on ue4 and dont know what changed that now doesnt detect it

Its like the skeletal mesh was emty

all the joints are named but the dont show on the viewport

This should probably be in #animation or #ue5-general

[raw crown]

Then choose the skeleton bro and i wanna know is the skeleton is showing up or not and if not then import the ue4 mannequin skeleton from fab

[echo field]

Not compatible with my project (ue5.7.2)

[raw crown]

Checkbox tick it

And below the version selector is coming up

Choose their and if your project shows up then select it and import

[echo field]

Does not show , its up to 4.9 and mine its on 5.7

[raw crown]

Yet another thing you can do is import ue5 first person project files using

By right clicking and there is an option of

Add quixel or feature content

Select this option

And select and third or first person project

It will import in current one

And then choose the skeleton

[echo field]

using the mobile mannequin doesnt work either

[echo field]

doesnt work either , its uses the basic SK mannequin and ive tried that

Retarget animation bro

[echo field]

thats the problem my friend

the animations dont have a skeletal mesh assigned to them , so i cant retarget

[raw crown]

Ask in #animation about it

[echo field]

well

they do have a skeletal mesh but its corrupted or smth

[raw crown]

Regenerate Skeleton: If no skeleton exists, you can right-click the Skeletal Mesh in the Content Browser and select Create -> Skeleton. This generates a new skeleton asset based on the mesh's current bone hierarchy.

Otherwise ask their

[echo field]

control rig?

[raw crown]

You can do that too
Also, if you want to change skeleton just retarget skeleton

[echo field]

I cant , the skeleton isnt working

the skeleton seems to be the base of all the problems

[raw crown]

Choose skeleton their

And then send a pic

[echo field]

skeleton their?

[raw crown]

Yup

After skeleton done creating you have to go for its ik rig

[echo field]

Im not following , what does skeleton their mean

[raw crown]

When you right click on it below create there is skeleton option

[echo field]

there

both created

the skeleton from the Skeletal mesh and the IK

now what do i do o

[raw crown]

You need an ik retargetor
