How to go about making a new character.

[RealityRiddler]

Look, I'm not even sure if it's possible at this point, but if it is, how would one go about creating a new character? I know the basic idea that I need a model, and I have one, but past that point, I have no clue as to how to code it, animate it, what resources I need, how many licks it takes to get to the center, and if it's even possible. If I could get some help rounding up some resources, that would be amazing, but so far, I have found absolutely nothing after a solid week of searching.

to make a new character you need to port a model to an existing character (i don't know how to do this) or you can get a model that's already ported (any model in the vault), then you need that character's  fit and motionetc pac files, you will also need 2 programs: brawlbox and project smash attacks. Check this guy's videos, he explains ho to do animations and hittboxes, graphic effects etc.

While obliterator is right I just want to say that he over simplified it. I would try to master a few of those skills before you even attempt to make your own.
