Enhancing Your Unity Game with a Custom Character

Are you ready to take your Unity game to the next level? In this episode of our Unity open world series, we are diving into the process of importing a new character into your project. Say goodbye to the standard third person character template and hello to a custom character from Mixer Mode! Let's walk through the steps together to elevate your gaming experience.

Selecting and Importing the Custom Character

First things first, head over to Mixer Mode to select the perfect character for your game. Once you've found your ideal character, download it as an FBX for Unity. Remember, customization is key to creating an immersive gaming environment.

Create a dedicated folder in your Unity project, such as "Characters," and within that, another folder named as per your character, like "Korea Nora." Place the downloaded character model in this folder.

Adjusting the Character Scale

Upon importing the character model, you may notice that the scale is not quite right. To modify this, simply select the model, adjust the scale (e.g., 0.1), and apply the changes. Voila! Your character's scale is now perfect for integration into your game.

Textures Integration

Now, let's address the textures to enhance the visual appeal of your character. To extract and apply textures correctly, navigate to the model settings and locate the "Extract Textures" option. Select your character folder and let Unity handle the rest. You'll see the textures come to life on your character seamlessly.

What's Next?

We've successfully set the foundation for your new custom character, but there's more to come! In our next episode, we'll delve into animating the character's movements and incorporating a camera system to provide players with an engaging perspective. Stay tuned as we refine our character step by step towards a fully playable and captivating gaming experience.
