Exporting your rig from Maya to Unreal Engine can be more complicated than it seems. While it might appear simple, many people struggle with issues like controls, IK handles, hierarchical setups, scaling problems, and material assignments. As an instructor, I often get asked about this, so in this tutorial, I’m going to walk you through the process of exporting a clean skeletal mesh from Maya into Unreal Engine 5. Even though Unreal’s Control Rig features allow you to rebuild your rig, you need to understand the steps for smooth, error-free export. In this video, I’ll cover common issues you might face, and I’ll also share a helpful joint-filtering script to make your workflow easier. 🌟 Want the joint-filtering script?
