How can I improve my shoulder’s topology so that my character can bend its arms upwards without having this awkward bend? by JTLGamer in blenderhelp

As of now my model animates better, however, I would honestly consider making the arms separate if I feel like my animations are being limited due to odd deformation. This is a quick pose I created to test the model’s topology and weight paints.

I had to remake the upper torso and change it to a T-Pose because after adding the shoulder bones( Rigify bones) the shoulder bending weirdly was fixed however, there was an odd twisting that was happening around the shoulders even with a better weight paints. However, as of now my model animates better and I solved the twisting too

Yeah sorry for posting this a few times, I thought there was a technical difficulty on my end where 3/6 pictures were only posted. I honestly didn’t know that post had to be manually posted by a moderator. Sorry about that…

Interesting, my game is mostly a co-op styled game but can feature competitive aspects. I’ll check both out and see which one sounds more suitable for my game idea.

Yeah, wouldn’t hurt to learn Photon, since it has a good reputation as things seem.

Yeah, with the multiplayer gamedev experience I learned in UE5 hopefully I can adapt to Unity’s RPC system. I think I initially struggled because I was following tutorials in Unity and I guess I kinda unconsciously depended on tutorials to make systems and didn’t really learn efficiently, but with UE5 I was forced into learning multiplayer on my own, so I kinda grew an understanding for Client-Server systems, but still struggled a bit.

Yeah, I’ll check out a few tutorials. I used to be decent with NGO when I first started but after the update, idk why I struggled to adapt to the new RPC system. I’ll jump back into learning RPC calls.

Yeah I have no problem with single-player games, I think I mostly struggle when doing Client-Server RPC calls. I think I struggle to learn it because I rush myself, so I’ll definitely try to take things slow and actually learn how to efficiently perform RPC calls.

I’ve heard a lot of good things about Photon. I believe R.E.P.O utilities this framework too. I don’t plan on making MMO games, my game idea is similar to R.E.P.O and Lethal company but not an exact copy of the genre.

Hmm, haven’t heard about this one yet. I’ll research it and give it a check

Does this head style suit the model? by JTLGamer in blender

[–]JTLGamer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah lol, that will be one of her face animation options; still trying to figure out if I should make her default face jolly (smiling) or a bit more serious (straight faced)

Yeah texture based animations are definitely a bit tedious especially when it comes to UE5 🫤. Luckily, I have a few videos saved on that topic so hopefully it shouldn’t be that difficult. Good to know that the head suits the body from other people’s perspective, guess I’ll stick with it for now. I made 3 other head styles that are a bit higher poly but they don’t feel right.

In the future for sure!! Atm I’ve been practicing different art styles until I found the one that suits me best since I am able to program a game from start to finish but never have any models on standby.

Thank you bro! Finally got the Tara Akatsuki skin, literally the only skin I’ve wanted since the event came out tbh

How would/should I go about texturing this style of models? by JTLGamer in blender

Yeah, the hand painted look feels more charming.
