Guidelines for Wearable Creation: Store, Editor, or Both

  • Do not download an avatar from 3Daily.ai and upload it as an outfit.
  • The Male Base Model with Blend shapes is provided for your convenience.
  • Try your assets by changing the Blendshapes in different sizes from 0 to 1.

Note: 

  1. Ensure the Blendshapes’ names match those in the template base body.
  2. Exclude Blendshapes for assets sold exclusively in the Store; but follow the remaining steps.

Meshes & Materials: General Requirements

  • An outfit asset can consist of a top, bottom, footwear, and the body. 
  • Each mesh should use only one material.
  • Maximum triangle count: 20,000, distributed as needed.

You decide how to distribute Quads across meshes. We recommend using as few quads as feasible and putting details into the texture maps.

Blend Shapes (Shape Keys/Morph Targets):

  1. Understanding Blend Shapes:
    • The Male Model comes with multiple Blend shapes and sizes ranging from 0 (minimum size or leanest) to 1 (maximum size or overweight).
    • Crucial for Editor use only; verify your assets’ deformation with our Avatar.
  2. Note:
    • Maintain identical Blendshape Names as the characters.
    • Test asset deformation against Avatar Blendshapes.

Steps for Creating an Outfit:

Step 1: Download and Inspect the Template

  • Download the template body.
  • Familiarise yourself with template details.
  • Ensure your design adheres to Outfit requirements.

Step 2: Create Your Outfit

  • Fit clothing to the template body.
  • Create UV layout for clothing meshes.
  • Develop texture maps for assets.
  • Do not alter the UV layout, shape, or blendshapes of the template body mesh.
  • Name blendshapes identical to the template body; critical for proper asset fitting.
  • Blendshape 0 is minimum, and 1 is maximum.
  • Stay within the total Polycount (Quards) limit.
  • Materials cannot be shared between meshes.

Step 3: Deformation Testing

  • Add skin weights to clothing meshes for the provided skeleton.
  • All vertices need skin weights assigned.
  • Ensure assets move seamlessly with skeleton animation.

Step 4: Export

  • Export as a GLB file for Editor and GLB, FBX, and OBJ for the store, along with renders, Marmoset viewer, and a preview image.
  • Include:
    • Unmodified skeleton (Armature) provided.
    • Assets optimised to the body mesh.
    • Outfit meshes with materials and skin weights for the skeleton.
    • Maintain blendshape names identical to template body blendshapes.
  • Exclude:
    • Templet Body mesh (provided for reference only).
    • Lights, cameras, animations.

Step 5: Upload

  • Package as recommended based on where you intend to sell (Editor, Store, or Both).

Recommendations and Tips:

Modelling:

  • Make every Quad count, contributing to silhouette or deformations.
  • Details like buttons are better suited for texture maps.
  • Bake details from mid-poly mesh into low-poly mesh.
  • Avoid long and thin Quads causing shading artefacts.
  • Avoid very small Quads or triangles with 0 areas to prevent validation errors.
