So I’m returning to game development again and I’d like to give a present to the other developers here, especially to anyone who would like to get into 3D games (which are currently fairly rare here).
I will be updating the model regularly (as it is part of my game) and I’d like to make it publicly available so that many other developers may use it in their own projects or even improve upon it so that it may have more features or be easier to use.
Does anyone have a good idea of where the project should be posted when it’s done? I’m currently on the last stages of modeling it and would like to know early so I can prepare.
A few more details for anyone interested:
- Anime style
- Fully rigged
- Model is gender neutral by default
- Made to be inclusive
- Will have male/female blendshapes
- Female will be available right away
- Male will be available later
- Made to be inclusive
- Breast size and hip size blendshapes
- Swappable eyes, eyebrows, and heads
- Clothing, hair, and accessories will likely be added later
- Most of which will probably be from my game
- Initial version may or may not have weight stages (undecided)
- Weight stages will go up to near-blob size.
- Blob size will likely not be supported with this model as blobs don’t really need as much animation as a typical character model.
- Made for the Godot game engine, but should work anywhere
- Will include a simple character customization preview game later
- Licensed under CC-BY-SA
- You must credit me and other contributors as well as link back to the project.
- Any modifications to the model must be under the same license.
My main goal here is to hopefully create a standard 3D base character for use across most games on the site as a community project that anyone can help improve so that anyone can create their own 3D games without having to worry about character modeling. Would be really nice to see more games that aren’t just the usual RPGMaker and text-based ones.
