Charater Creator

by Hayden Crowley · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 08/02/2009 (8:26 pm) · 5 replies

Hi I was wondering if its possible to make a character creator for TGEA or T3D, I was hoping to try and make one from scratch where it would have a normal skeleton but each part of the body would have a different you could scroll though a list to add to the body, so the hands you can choose a different mesh of different sizes and/or looks for example so you can make your own custom character, later I also hope to add different textures you can select for each part to add to the customization.

Is this all possible?

If it is can anyone help me?

It's possible, but you'll have to do some heavy coding to get it to work. Do a search for character customization for ideas, resources, and lots of discussion on the topic. What you're asking about is non-trivial, but if you want to give it a try and make it work, I'd even shell out some bucks for the resource...

That's something I would pay for as well.

Cool thanks, do you have any suggestions on placed to try? I'd be happy to pay if I can get the customize to work since it's for a MMORPG game I've had my mind set on also.

Well, there's the search terms I gave in the first post, and since you're looking to do an MMO, I would also suggest this thread, which can help you with that sort of thing.
