The Load DNA node
When to use it
Pulls the MetaHuman DNA out of a skeletal mesh so the rest of the DNA nodes can read it. Handles both the newer MetaHuman Character storage and the older one, so you do not have to know which your character was made with.
How to use it
- 1
Pick a skeletal mesh that carries DNA
- 2
Wire the DNA output onward
Into DNA To Mesh, Get DNA Expression, Bake DNA Geometry, or any other DNA node.
