How to create footprints in unreal engine 5 ( Sequencer animation ) No Blueprint
In this tutorial, I'll guide you through the process of creating footprints in Unreal Engine 5 using a combination of Blender, Photoshop, and Sequencer. We'll start by opening the cloth exported from MetaTailor in Blender, applying shoe textures, and marking the soles in a distinct color like green. This will help us position the footprints accurately. I'll then show you how to export the texture to Photoshop, where we'll replace the marked area with a snowy footprint and save it as a TIFF file.
Next, I'll demonstrate how to generate a normal map from the base color using an online converter, and how to import these textures into Unreal Engine 5. By creating a new material and applying it to the cloth, we'll achieve a realistic look for the shoes. Finally, we'll use decals from Quixel Bridge, added and animated in Sequencer, to show the footprints in Unreal Engine 5 as the character walks on the ground.
