Hey I'm making characters for the first time for a video game and I was thinking about making them modular so I can switch clothes and accessories and these characters.But beyond the sculpting, what does it take to make a modular character when you're going through the retopo step ? How do you even plan that?Any guides out there on that subject, I can only find resources that scratches the basics in 4 minutes max.
Same skeleton or something idk
>>1023109basically a bunch of meshes weighted to the same skeleton. Either the clothes are added on top of the base character, or the character is made of modules you can swap out, or both.Workflow is you make a basic character, usually as nude as you can, and work out where you want the modular cuts to be. Then for each new clothin/equipment module you copy the relevant modules or even just loops and model/sculpt the new pieces from that.http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/SkankerzeroModularCharacterSystemAlso if you're making a character for the first time don't make it modular, go back to that after you've actually gone through the whole process of making a character
