Please enable the Groom plugin when using Groom.

If groom is used in UE5, further Rendering -> Optimisation -> Enable Support Compute Skin Cache in the project settings.

(I have confirmed the operation of Groom only on Windows.

The demoscene without Groom is up to 2:22 seconds in the video below:

The main contents are ostrich models, textures and animations.

Animation BP and minimalisrtic third person character using these are included as example usage.
