In this video I go through adding a new skeleton to a mesh in Unreal Engine.
Until now this was only possible by going out to another DCC such as Blender or Maya. Now we can do it in Unreal Engine 5.3!

    The first thing you need to do is enable the Skeletal mesh editing tools plugin !!! For a long time I didn’t understand why I didn’t have a conversion button !

    Exactly what I was looking for to get started experimenting. I can now make my stickman character modeling / animating everything inside unreal. All I was finding was full character skeleton tutorials, usually imported from another program. Thanks for doing this.

    Good stuff, they are making it so you don't have to rely on DCCs for small things like this anymore

    Hi again. So I opened up UE 5,3 and there is no blue editing tool box thingi. Yes I clicked on the "skeleton mesh". So I don't have the tools for editing and creating the skeleton. Any ideas? :-) Thanx again!

    Hi, how can you add separate meshes to the same armor, for example to create the skeleton of a weapon with magazine, Shell ejector, trigger etc?
