Hi, I see you are looking for a custom UE 5.7 Face Animation Blueprint bypassing MetaHuman Face_AnimBP's slot zeroing. We have 8+ years of experience. To achieve better results, I would suggest parenting to UAnimInstance (not Face_AnimBP) and using a simple Sequence Player → Slot node → Output — this completely avoids the post-process pipeline that consumes your slot output. What you get: Custom AnimBP (.uasset) for Face_Archetype_Skeleton Runtime assignment via SetAnimInstanceClass in OnAnimInitialized Working PlaySlotAnimationAsDynamicMontage with visible face movement Screen recording proof in PIE + integration notes Delivery: 3 days We are available to start right away. Let's confirm your slot node name. You can check our portfolio below: ? https://www.freelancer.com/u/mahadhasan012 Thanks, PIXORA STUDIO

Hello, I’ve reviewed your MetaHuman facial animation issue in UE 5.7 and understand the assembled Face_AnimBP / Face_PostProcess_AnimBP pipeline problem you described. Since the montage already fires correctly, the issue is very likely the post-process evaluation overriding slot output before render. I can build a standalone custom Face AnimBP in a fresh UE 5.7 MetaHuman project that bypasses the assembled facial pipeline using a lightweight UAnimInstance setup with Sequence Player → DefaultSlot → Output. I’ll test it using multiple facial AnimSequences on Face_Archetype_Skeleton and verify visible runtime facial reactions through PlaySlotAnimationAsDynamicMontage. Deliverables: • Compiled Face AnimBP .uasset • 30–60 second demo video • Integration/setup notes for SetAnimInstanceClass and runtime assignment • Confirmation of testing with multiple animations Experienced with UE5 Animation Blueprints, MetaHuman facial systems, slot playback, and runtime animation debugging. Best regards, Neelam M

I understand that you need a custom Face Animation Blueprint to play AnimSequences via PlaySlotAnimationAsDynamicMontage on a MetaHuman face skeletal mesh, bypassing the standard Face_AnimBP / Face_PostProcess_AnimBP assembled pipeline. Given my expertise in Unreal Engine 5 and animation blueprint authoring, I'm confident that I can help you achieve this. I've reviewed your project requirements and understand the suspected root cause of the issue - the UE 5.6+ MetaHuman "Assembled" BP architecture. I agree with your recommended fix path to build a minimal custom Face AnimBP, which I'll do in my own UE 5.7 project using the default MetaHuman sample for development and testing. I'll deliver the compiled .uasset file for the custom Face AnimBP, along with a 30-60 second screen recording showing it working in my test project, as well as brief integration notes covering setup gotchas and confirmation tested with at least two different AnimSequences. Let's get started on this project. I'd like to discuss the details further and clarify any questions you may have. Please feel free to chat with me anytime within the next 6 days.

Hello, I can build a custom Face Animation Blueprint solution for UE 5.7 MetaHumans that bypasses the Face_PostProcess_AnimBP pipeline and enables proper slot-based facial animation playback for your fighting game system. Solution: Create a clean Face AnimBP (Sequence Player → Slot → Output Pose) Remove/avoid MetaHuman post-process override (mh_arkit_mapping_pose / Control Rig layer) Enable runtime animation via SetAnimInstanceClass() on Face mesh Ensure PlaySlotAnimationAsDynamicMontage() works visibly in PIE Deliverables: Working Face AnimBP (.uasset) UE 5.7 test project with MetaHuman setup Screen recording showing 2+ facial animations working Short integration notes (runtime setup + skeleton + slot config) Outcome: Fully working facial animation system that correctly renders slot-based AnimSequences without being overridden by MetaHuman pipeline layers. Ready to start immediately.

I have spent several years specializing in the Unreal Engine MetaHuman ecosystem, specifically focusing on facial fidelity and rig optimization for high-intensity combat titles. Your fighting game project requires more than just simple sequence playback; it needs a responsive system that preserves the nuances of the MetaHuman DNA rig during rapid state changes. Having recently developed a hit-response framework for a similar UE5 combat project, I am confident in delivering a custom blueprint that feels both fluid and impactful, ensuring the facial performance perfectly matches the kinetic energy and frame-data requirements of your gameplay. My technical approach involves constructing a modular Face AnimBP that utilizes an additive blending stack to layer your AnimSequences over the base facial state without breaking the underlying rig logic. I will implement a robust State Machine or Linked Anim Graph to handle transitions, ensuring that "hit" and "pain" expressions interpolate smoothly via inertialization or custom curves to avoid visual snapping. Furthermore, I will expose parameters for dynamic weight blending and play-rate modulation, allowing you to fine-tune the intensity of each reaction directly within your game's damage logic. This ensures that your MetaHuman’s facial performance remains consistent regardless of the character’s current body animation or stance. To ensure we align on the implementation, are these AnimSequences driven by baked keyframes, or are you looking to integrate procedural jitter during the reactions for added realism? Do you have a priority system in mind for overlapping reactions, such as a heavy hit overriding a light flinch? I am available to chat or hop on a brief call to review your current rig setup and get this integrated into your UE build immediately.

Hi there, THE CHALLENGE is to develop a custom Face Animation Blueprint for a UE 5.7 fighting game project that bypasses the standard Face_AnimBP / Face_PostProcess_AnimBP pipeline, allowing for the proper animation of a MetaHuman face skeletal mesh. Despite successfully triggering the animations, the face does not visibly animate at runtime, likely due to the MetaHuman "Assembled" BP architecture interfering with the slot output. To address this, I propose building a minimal custom Face AnimBP directly parented to UAnimInstance, which can be assigned to the Face component at runtime to bypass the post-process pipeline. By ensuring compatibility with the Face_Archetype_Skeleton and providing detailed integration notes, the goal is to deliver a functional solution that allows for slot-based montage playback and seamless facial animation within the TrueFGE framework. Regards, Matheus.
