Okay if you use UE4 you know very well it is a very difficult-to-use engine. I have now run into another issue. I was under the impression if the bones were in the right hierarchy, named proper, etc UE4 was happy with using that skeleton for whatever objects you have it rigged for. Turns out no. I was wondering if there is a way to universally rename these, all the same, without numbers being added? (This is what UE4 requires now)

Sadly, All game engines like Unity and Unreal need you to rename them properly because that is how it makes it easier for the engine and you to create your game. If you don't do so, in the long run, you will face more issues. So the answer to your question is unfortunately, no. And next time, don't use offensive language.

$\begingroup$ That sucks. Yeah I know of the pedantic ways but this is asinine. I only read the name the bones, keep the hierarchy the same everywhere I read but once I imported it oh boy was I in for the typical unreal experience. Man this is some bull. I am going to have thousands of models. This is going to be hell. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 21, 2021 at 3:05

$\begingroup$ I agree with you. This is actually a lot of work and isn't normally worth it. It's like paying for 1000 dollar pizza and getting a 2 dollar pizza. But no 3d software has such options, so we have to rename them ourselves. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 21, 2021 at 4:00

$\begingroup$ Please, don't use offensive language like hell. This is against the rules of the stack exchange and you could be blocked from stack exchange if you keep using this sort of language. Also, I am a 12-year-old so you have to be a bit careful with talking with me. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 21, 2021 at 4:15

$\begingroup$ Okay I'm done here then. I kept my language at TV level. I am not playing human any lower. Screw this. I am not walking on egg shells. Surprised there is no auto censor sites do it all the time. but if this site is going to be this pedantic I am not writing anymore. I will figure this out on my own. It isn't worth trying to play human that far. Not walking on eggshells. Ciao. $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 21, 2021 at 5:51
