The Mixamo framework automatically detects the relevant joints and facial features and produces a reasonably flawless rig, complete with facial key shapes (morphs) for adding emotions or speech to the character.įuse was initially developed by Mixamo and distributed through Steam (up to version 1.3).
Rigging and animation is handled by the online Mixamo framework (the character is uploaded to the Mixamo server and is then made available as an FBX or Collada download). Materials can also be imported (proprietary "substance" format). Additional clothes can also be imported through OBJ, either with regular texturing or with a special color map that allows the use of Substance Painter materials. Starting with one of many building blocks and presets (body parts, clothes, hair), the characters can be customized in many ways, both through body shape adjustment (the clothes and hair automatically adjust to the new body shape) and through texture/material adjustment (texture maps are generated on-the fly, depending on the material settings, using the Substance Painter framework).Īdditional body shapes can be imported via an OBJ file (as long as their UV map is consistent with the original models).

On Windows, Fuse CC has a counter-intuitive defect that keeps it from launching unless you spam clicks and Enter keypresses (e.g. However, one can have the best of both worlds by migrating Fuse 1.3 content into Fuse CC. The lower-poly characters of Fuse 1.3 can also be considered a plus. At the time of writing, Fuse CC is the more functional version (mostly because of fully featured auto-rigging), whereas Fuse 1.3 has a more complete clothes/hair library.
The procedure for adapting Fuse/Mixamo characters to the UE4 engine is detailed below.
The Fuse environment is very good as compared to MakeHuman in terms of user-friendliness and customization.
