Fellow Character Enthusiasts,

Version 2.2 has just been launched and it offers quite a lot of new features, so lets get us started.

Changelog

  • With the last update we introduced a rework of all bases, hairs, facial hairs and bangs, but sadly some artifacts made it into the sprites that made them look bad upon closer inspection. So once again all hairs, facial hairs and bangs have been reexported and cleaned up!
  • You want more content, so we deliver: A Roman Armor has been added. In the future we will try to bring you more content updates, so creating new stuff takes time.
  • The pixelate feature can now be controlled separately for busts and sprites
  • Same goes for body height and width control - change busts and sprites on their own as well
  • A button has been added to enable an isometric grid behind the sprite if you want to

The last and biggest addition: Body <-> Head ratio adjustment!

What does that mean? You can now create even more believable children, dwarves, gnomes and so on. It's now also possible to create CHIBIS - something quite some people seem to be looking forward to.

A little disclaimer: A few (3-4) animations are problematic when you go all the way with big heads and small bodies. Everything that involves hands above the head still have the big cutouts from the hairs, but the hands are smaller. This for sure includes climbing, carry walk & carry idle. So use the new feature at your own disgression!

Enjoy version 2.2 and let us know on our Discord or in the comments what excites you most about this update - thanks for using 8D!
