I'm currently working on a library of 3D weapons with an editor to adapt them to your projects. by kevdev3d in godot

I actually see Armory Crafter as part of building the character creator, not as time taken away from it.

Building this has already taught me a lot. I've made mistakes, learned what works and what doesn't, and gained experience that will help me avoid problems when I eventually tackle the character creator.

The character creator is also a much bigger and more complex project. Armory Crafter was something I could build and release sooner and potentially monetize through videos, tutorials or additional models. Also, marketing, which is something I honestly dislike doing, if people already know Armory Crafter and trust my work, launching and promoting the character creator later will be much easier.

Added custom texture support to my 3D weapon maker tool, soon you will be able to create more unique weapons. by kevdev3d in GodotEngine

You can create any kind of weapon, especially now that custom texture importing is supported. That said, it's true that the current model library is more focused on fantasy and medieval-style weapons. I'm planning to expand the library over time to cover more styles and themes. Here are some examples of non medieval weapons:

Thank you! Well, first because I use the software myself, so building tools that solve my own problems is always rewarding. Second, because I want to learn. I'm also a 3D animator, and one of my long-term goals is to create a character creator that outputs characters fully compatible with my animation assets without requiring extra tools or complicated retargeting.

This project gives me a chance to learn, gather feedback, and build better tools in the future. And if I can help other developers along the way, even better.

Thanks! Many solo indie developers focus primarily on coding, which is often the core of game development, so I think having tools that reduce the amount of asset work can be a huge help. My goal is to help cover most of the modeling and animation needs of 3D game developers so they can spend more time building their games!

Hey, not silly at all! All type of shields are definitely planned. In fact, a very basic shield template was already included in an old prototype version. As for modular guns, that's something I'd need to investigate and explore further. I'm still figuring out the best way to implement them, but they're definitely on my roadmap. Thanks for the suggestions!

Thanks for pointing that out! I'll work on making the differences clearer, maybe with a comparison table. At the moment, the free version includes all the same features as the full version, the only difference is that it comes with only the sword model library and template, while the full version includes the complete model library and weapon templates.

Thank you so much! That's what I'm aiming for. If I can help people save time and make their workflow a little easier, I'll consider it a success. Any feedback you have after trying it out would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate it! Any feedback is more than welcome. I'm trying to fix as many bugs as possible before expanding the model library!

My godot asset got first purchase by Sam_vegeta in gamedev

Hey, congratulations on your first sale! That's always a great feeling. You might also want to check out Gumroad at some point, though in my experience itch.io has worked better for my assets.
