Mesh Morpher (Wrapper)

Mesh Morpher allows you to create/remove/modify morph targets easily from within the Unreal Engine Editor.

Current Version 2.6.1

Mesh Morpher allows you to create/remove/modify, copy, import and export morph targets easily from within Unreal Engine Editor.

This plugin is under continuous development and improvement.

Please get in touch with me on my discord server or on e-mail with suggestions, bugs or any other questions.

Mesh Morpher version 2.0 and above is only available for UE5.0 and later.

Mesh Morpher doesn't use any third party libraries outside the engine.

You need to have Epic Games Launcher installed and authenticated in order to use Mesh Morpher.

Key Benefits:

• Simplifies the process of creating and managing morph targets, allowing developers to spend less time on technical details and more time on actual content creation.
• Enables developers to create and manipulate complex shapes and models by blending multiple morph targets. This level of customization allows for a wide range of unique characters, assets, and environments.
• Allows for real-time editing of morph targets within the Unreal Engine 5 environment, making it easy to preview and iterate on your work without having to switch between multiple applications.
• Integrates seamlessly with Unreal Engine 5, allowing developers to leverage its benefits within their existing workflow.
• Allows developers to reuse existing assets by applying different morph targets to create new, unique models. This can save both time and resources when developing multiple game projects or iterations.
• Supports popular 3D file formats, such as FBX and OBJ, making it easier to integrate with your existing 3D modeling and animation software.
• Can help streamline the collaboration process between artists, designers, and developers by allowing them to make changes to 3D models directly within Unreal Engine 5. This can lead to a more efficient workflow and better communication within the team.
• Intuitive interface and real-time editing capabilities allow developers to quickly test and iterate on their ideas, accelerating the development process and reducing the time it takes to bring a game to market.
• Non-destructive nature that allows developers to easily create, modify or remove morph targets without affecting the original mesh, enabling them to experiment with different ideas and make changes without losing their initial work.

Technical Details

Mesh Morpher 2.5.9 is Live! (04/03/2023)

• [MM-422] Fixed a bug where grabbing deltas from import data wouldn’t work correctly in certain cases. Instead, we now grab deltas only from UMorphTarget objects.

Mesh Morpher 2.5.8 is Live! (04/02/2023)

• [MM-417] Bone Tree fits better in Poser side panel
• [MM-418] Bonesnapshots have been changed. The bone transformation storage is completely changed and requires users to recreate them.
• [MM-419] Renaming a Morph Target now pre-fills the text block with current Morph Target name
• [MM-420] Wrapper control points index indicator are not render anymore if they’re outside of viewport frustum
• [MM-421] Fixed a bug where creating the bones gizmos would crash the engine

Mesh Morpher 2.5.7 is Live! (03/23/2023)

• [MM-409] Improved the smoothing for non-rigid wrapping
• [MM-410] Added Symmetric Control Points
• [MM-411] Updated default Wrapping settings
