Character Creator

[KAZECoyote]

My idea is to model parts (tops, bottoms, shoes, gloves, weapons, heads, hair, and accessories) and distribute them to be placed together and rigged. They'll be done by body types like marth, link, pit, zelda, etc.

the models will be distributed as a .dae in an .rar with its corresponding texture. the models within the .dae will be placed it its correct position within world space(so a shirt will be floating in its position, instead of at 0,0,0)

Its completely possible, my only question is about the max polycount. IS there one? if so, how do i find it/them. I'm looking forward to starting this project.

Any other experienced modelers are welcome to join the project.

Alright, now that all that messy business is sorted out, I would like to wish you the best of luck on this. It would be nice to spruce up existing characters with accessories and the like.

As far as the polycount... there is a limit, but I don't remember the exact number. /:

[KAZECoyote]

thanks. once i figure it out, it should be smooth sailing.

[Spex130]

So wait. You're saying that you'll take one specific body part, then rig it to one specific bone, right?

Then you can take a base boneset, then import a bunch of body parts prerigged to a certain bone(or bones.) so you can make a custom(ish) character, right?


Or is it more like an Accessory adder? Because that's cool too.


Either way, I support this! Count me in if you need some body part submissions!

[KAZECoyote]

Yes, the first one. though, we can do accessories for pre-existing characters also. I need as much help as I could get. we should start with concepts.

[Spex130]

Alright! Would you like some drawings? Or will just ideas do?

Also, will all of this be simply original, or will you add accessories and the like found online?

[KAZECoyote]

Drawings or ideas will do. I'd like for it all to be original. but you can use stuff online for reference, just not ripped pieces from other models. But, you can modify parts already in brawl.

Thanks! We recently released Roxas!

[Spex130]

Alright then. How about a few sets of civilian clothes for, say....

Pit? Is that good?

[TokoyamiTheDark]

You guys know what? This is EXACTLY what I do to get T-stanced models. As a result, the shoulders are often odd-looking, but who cares? As long as the model is good and plays fine, then everything is OK.

  I wondered what happened to this. It was missing in action this morning. This sounds great.

I'm sure everything will turn out fantastic with the tools available. Totally probable and possible 

◕ ヮ ◕ full support. Best of luck in this endeavor

I actually had this idea early last week. I made an attempt to attach Kirby's Plasma hat (from the trophy) to a green Kirby. I failed spectacularly at it, but its definitely something that can be done now.

[KAZECoyote]

Pits base model is done, uving soon.


We're going to have to sacrifice facial expressions for space, hope you'all are ok with that.
