New Character Models Mod possible?

[Javelin_X]

Hi there, does anyone happen to know if character assets are accessible in the dev kit?

I am a character artist in the games industry and am interested in creating a custom character model pack in my free time for Ark. Assuming that the rig they use is accessible. It’s a lot less work to be able to re-use the same animations / rig they currently use for the character models and or dinos then have to create new animation sets.

I haven’t downloaded it yet to check for myself. Which is what I will do if no one knows for certain.

The skeleton is exposed i think and the mesh certainly is. You can export straight from the devkit to FBX but never tried exporting a skeleton myelf

Cool I’ll download the kit and dig into it then, see if I can do a test with one of my other characters then if that works out I’ll work on creating some new character meshes specifically for Ark.
