Class UManusSkeleton

ClassList > UManusSkeleton

This class is the bridge between the Manus Core animation data and the unreal animation it defines the nodes (bones) and chains (how bones are connected) of a skeleton and offers support functions to send them to Manus Core and retrieve them.

  • #include <ManusSkeleton.h>

Inherits the following classes: UObject

function ClearSetupSkeleton

clear a specific skeleton 

bool UManusSkeleton::ClearSetupSkeleton (
