Hi,

The current Houdini frame can't be changed via the unreal plug-in, and the plug-in doesn't support animations.
You could be using a timeshift node to change the frame, but that will give you a new static mesh after each update, which I doubt is what you want.

Instead, you probably want to use FBX export to get your animated mesh in Unreal.

is there any update? - still no possibility to create animation tracks with the engine?

Neonzone

same question is in the roadmap ?

Both version 1 (and version 2) of the plugin still dont have the ability to create animation tracks/handle skeletal meshes and animations.

We do have some animation related features planned, but they will likely be after the v2 release.
