Exporting the Mannequin in 18 easy steps! This is not really a quick-and-easy job despite the humor in the next heading. Yeah, that’s 18 steps, but then the other jobs take lots of steps too…. The first job is to export the mannequin so it can be used in Blender. I’m also using Blender 2.79, again should work in recent Blender versions (2.8 and above is supposed to be a major change in Blender so it might fail there). I am using Unreal Engine version 4.18, but it should be similar in recent engine versions. The older versions of Unreal Engine 4 it just doesn’t work, apparently, but the later versions, I got it to mostly work by searching online, through the Udemy Blender Character Creator course, and through lots of trial-and-error.

Searching online, I see many (like me) have wanted to work on characters in Blender by exporting the Mannequin skeleton provided by Epic, but there are problems with doing this.
