Character Creator - Reimporting previously saved character to enable re-editing #4453

Open jasailor opened 1 year ago

jasailor commented 1 year ago

Character Creator should be able to reimport and previously created/saved characacter so various attributes can be modified. The most important would include animations. Once modified the chacater can be resaved, reimported and then replace the existing character in the scene.

I look forward to seeing it in a future version.

You can already do this. You just go to import and select the .dbo of the character you want to change. Then save it as same name and in same folder and it will overwrite your old one.

FYI.  The reason I suggested it here is that I asked the question on the YouTube today and Lee thought it was a good idea and asked me to add it.  I think he was thinking that previous saved characters would be just listed on a drop down box in the character creator and then just re-imported/saved into the scene again. Not sure. Thanks for the method it will save me a tremendous amount of time immediately.   Regards,JASailorOn Apr 12, 2023, at 5:53 PM, David Brandt @.***> wrote: You can already do this.

NOTE: The idea in this feature is that all the settings you used when making the character in the CC are saved in the FPE, and those settings can be read back into the CC to get you to the poiint just before you exported. In fact, it would be an extra EDIT button for any character creator object to take you directly to the CC for any adjustments, then decide if you want to replace the current one or create a new instance of the character under a different name.

Thanks for your clarification on the feature.   I’ll be looking for it down the road.  In the meantime, good luck with your launch.  Regards,JASailorOn Apr 13, 2023, at 10:58 AM, Lee Bamber @.***> wrote: NOTE: The idea in this feature is that all the settings you used when making the character in the CC are saved in the FPE, and those settings can be read back into the CC to get you to the poiint just before you exported.

Lee, Any idea when this feature will be added to the character creator?
