Hi All i’m currently in the middle of working on a game but have come across an issue this is just a basic indie game nothing fancy, but i don’t want to model every enemy different from scratch and same with npcs. Although i’m working on an ai to make them all act different i am hoping someone can point me in the right direction for character customization. A tutorial would be perfect i know i could never build a system like the nemisis system from shadow of war games (which i thought was epic) i want to be able to customize stuff like cloths, skin color, hair, height etc. or for enemies masks and weapons i know ill have to build each setup first like different mask or Armour. But im hoping someone has found a customize that i can input the data and churn out npcs and enemies any help would be much appreciated

Kind regards Majeh

Hey there @Majeh28! Welcome back to the community! If you’re looking to just handle the mesh changing for the characters, the Mutable plugin is fantastic for allowing you to handle character customization relatively easy once setup.

No problem! Seems the patent should expire by 2036, so if we’re lucky we will see more games next decade that utilize something similar if we don’t get a better system in the meantime.
