As usual, my video devlog: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyOt8sPTqNxRseUzpzUEQQg
The system supports loading of the human male models with different features and armor.
Previously, the NPC were all loaded with the same hardcoded item set. Now I can define how each NPC looks like in the NPC configuration and then load it accordingly in the game. In this picture, you can see different NPCs with differnt armor set, and also the Thugs are loaded with different configuration.
Soon character creation and customisation will also be worked on, and that will benifit from what has been done in this direction, regarding the loading of characters with different features and armors.
I'm excited to see how this progresses:) When I get some time I'll have to follow your devlog on Youtube.
Are you also using Unity serverside?
