== Technical details == | |||
The character starts off as a 3D model which has limb parts, an armature and some animations. The model is then exported as glTF. From there, a custom definition file must be created containing... | |||
* The exported character model (+Y Up, include animations, do NOT include materials, apply modifiers if applicable) | |||
* which parts it consists of (Head, Torso...) and their respective bones (BHead, BTorso). Also, must name the root bone (BRoot). Please note that the root bone must be the parent of all other bones. The bones must NOT have the same names as the body parts. | |||
* The character controllers looks for these animations (the tree structure represents fallbacks if not found): | |||
** Idle | |||
*** Sit | |||
** Walk | |||
*** Climb | |||
*** Swim(?) | |||
** Wield | |||
** Jump | |||
* Min and max scale - set both to the same value to disable rescaling in character editor, 1 for no scaling. | |||
* Unit height - Height from the bottom of the foot to the top of the head, used for collider creation. | |||
* Accessory support - Accessory type + relative origin point translation and quaternion + max amount. | |||
