Custom Avatars

The EYESIM framework has the capability to use external avatars instead of the default provided ones.

• These avatars must comply with the EYESIM Avatar creation rules and methodologies.

• External avatars can be used for field operators and non-playing characters (NPCs).

• There is no way to mix the setup. The avatars and NPCs are all custom or all default.

Creating Custom Avatars

• Inserting custom Avatar content into project folder

• Configuring project for custom Avatars

• Scripting activity to use custom Avatars

• Include MWX files

• Patching Human node

• Visibility state for Avatar submeshes

Impact of custom avatars

Using custom avatars affects the EYESIM framework.

These are the impacted items:

• The simsetup DPI selection must be skipped because it is inconsistent.

• The DPI-related menu options do not work properly. Set all the DPI to false in the cfg_commons to avoid inconsistent situations.

• All the consequences that happened when equipping/unequipping DPI items, such as screen masks or measure tests, no longer work and must be set up again.
