I know it was just released, but wondering what the ETA is for a UE 5.6 plugin update? We would like to migrate our product to the new engine to make use of all the advanced Metahuman features. Thanks!

I second this request. Please give us the plugin for 5.6.
The new Mesh to Metahumans look incredible and I can’t wait to use them with my Convai Characters.

That is awesome @K3 and team. Let’s also test out the plugin for packaging purposes. Need Beta Testers, Count me in. :slightly_smiling_face:

We’re already actively testing packaging, and just to clarify, most of the packaging issues we’ve seen aren’t related to the Convai plugin itself. They’re usually due to general Unreal Engine packaging complexities.

Unlike Unity, the build process in Unreal tends to be more intricate, so troubleshooting often involves engine-level steps.
