Custom Character: What is expected from buyers?

Not sure a ‘demo’ level would be needed, it would be nice but not a deal-breaker to most people. The character should be “ready-to-go”, though. That means capable of moving without much difficulty in setting it up, or provided a tutorial on how-to. The animations should be already set up (which you seem to have a few already) for however you envision it to basically function. Walking, running, jumping, flying, swimming, etc. I don’t think you need to have it make phone calls and play a guitar, unless it is designed to do that (some characters come with guitars but have no way of actually using them, big letdown).

You mentioned that it has wings and a tail, do those also work? That’s something people look for when considering whether or not to get or use a character.

Thanks. I guess the bonus of the demo is that users could quickly import, or just tweak the character rather than going through all of the steps themselves. I just used the Unreal video series, so if they want to learn or tweak what I did they can reference those videos and go from there. I think I’ll go back and add comments to which video specific parts are from.
Right now it’s basically a boring room to run around in and a stair case for higher jumps.

If nothing else this is a good exercise in figuring out Unreal (I’m really liking it so far).

The tail and wings do work, but the winged version is a completely separate mesh. (same textures) This way you could have either a walking or flying character. Or possibly upgrade to flying mid game, etc… Possibly just having attachable wings would be a better way to go. Haven’t got that far yet.
