Question: The clothing in the .mhpkg file is a single mesh, can it be split into parts? Answer: Yes, the clothing comes as a single mesh in .mhpkg, but after creating the MetaHuman, you can split it into parts (like jacket, helmet, pants). To do this, select the mesh in the clothing folder and remove unwanted parts via material slots. The parts were originally separate in Blender, just exported together.Watch the detailed video tutorial on splitting clothing.
Question: Why did all clothing (helmet, pants, armor) become a single mesh after creating a MetaHuman 5.6 character, and how to split it in Blender?
Answer:This is not a mistake of the model author — MetaHuman Creator automatically merges all meshes into one on export.
Solution: export the character to Blender, split the parts, and import back to Unreal.

Please follow the instructions(for UE 5.6-5.7) to successfully import the outfit with the correct textures:
1) Create a folder called "Outfits" and a subfolder "SciFi_PS_p1". In this way Outfits\SciFi_PS_p1
2) Transfer the file - OA_SciFi_PS_p1.mhpkg to the created folder - SciFi_PS_p1
3) Transfer the WL (WI_OA_SciFi_PS_p1) file to MetaHumanCreator (Watch the video tutorial!)
4)In UE 5.6.1 normal maps display correctly by default, so no additional material adjustments are required.
After generating your MetaHuman:
Import the MetaHuman into your UE project.
Open the scene with your MetaHuman — clothing will display correctly without changing any materials.
