Development World Creation

Hello,

I will like to implement some character customization. Pretty much preset base on gender and default clothing. Some ideas I have is from here

I have to update this Development Vlog - Bridge Unreal Editor 12 26 2018 - Part 1 - YouTube. I was thinking on the right on the character customization is making the window smaller towards the left side then show the character on the right. As the selection change. The character change while giving the player the ability to turn and rotate.

Any thoughts is appreciared.

Hi Vivienne,

A modular character system may be a good place to get started for this:

Here is the documentation that covers this: https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Engine/Animation/Working-with-Modular-Characters

For changing physical characteristics like cheekbones morph targets would probably be the best approach.

Hope this helps!
