@edavid_cig, how many different character customization options do you envision? Both for the characters physical appearance (hair, eyes, face, body shape...) and the clothing options as well. Will there be more, less or about the same options for male or female characters?asked by Goukou

TL;DRCharacter customization is still in R&D, with several hair styles and nine shader-driven eye colours already made, none of it coming very soon; options are meant to be equal across genders.

So we've kind of touched on this a little bit on the other sections but this is something that we're actually thinking about. Quite a bit actually. Customisation is a big part of a good Persistant Universe. I don't think really as we get more things online and we get more clothing styles going, I don't know if there's been a determination for more or less based on gender.

It's just going to be the same. All about equal. Equality. The same amount of female clothesEKD: Well then how about aliens? Any of that equality?

That's another fine question. Sure of course I mean.

All equal. The thing about all that stuff you know exactly eye shape and all those things based on characters you're going to get and things like thatFS: That's something that's still in the RnD phase is how to customise characters in regards to the actual hair, eyes, face, body shape. Currently what we're doing is we do have multiple hair styles that you're going to be able to start swapping through. We have a shader that actually allows you to change the eye colour dynamically.So instead of us having a texture maps and it's a lot of labour for the eye colour. Currently we made nine different eye colours that are all shader driven. That you can cycle through even though it's not coming online in the very near future it will be. Then it also allows us to create even more with that. Too much effort other than making sure that we officially are on it.

Totally. Forest says our RnD lead phase that means we're not only developing ourselves but feedback we always want feedback. What do you like? What do you want to see? What do you appreciate? Send it our way we love that stuff. Cool alright next question.
