This is a tutorial on how to import survivor model from Dead By Daylight with UModel and Befzz’s importer and create animations with Blender’s Eevee or Cycles engine.

Important Note: I did make a few more changes once I finished this tutorial, including adding, weight painting and texturing the face mask, moving the bones related to the bag to a separate bone layer and exporting the BC and ORM texture for the face and replacing it in the shading tab.
Also please remember if you are rendering an animation please render as an image sequence for the following reasons:
1. It is less of a hassle if you want to “pause” rendering, or your PC crashes if you crash or hang during the render, you’ll keep the images you already rendered.
2. You can create transparency in png renders.
3. Video files are either lossy or huge and if you do editing, pngs are lossless.

Cheers, thanks 👍
Not through the video yet but your Normal and ORM should be set to non-color (I believe) that's why it looks so shiny and metallic looking. change the dropdown for color space from sRGB to Non-Color
Great video helped me out a ton.
can importing these re-textured/rendered skins into dead by daylight get you banned?

Hey I was wondering if you can make the waking up animation from the dream world. I've been looking everywhere, It doesnt matter which character (pref claudette or just any fun looking character). Would love to have that or use that as a gif
