    All of that sounds like it makes sense. I’m wondering how do you say buy a fortnite skin for a specific shaped character, then use it in a game where the character model is wildly different. I know very little about game game dev and even less so about how character art is made and turned into a 3d model. It just seems like the skins would have to be individually created for each game. That may not be too bad at first, but the bigger the game catalog, the more maintenance.

    I’m very much not the demo for this kind of thing, but the tech behind it sounds interesting. I’m just waiting for them to say they’re doing it with AI to take my distaste for Epic and multiplying it tenfold.

      There were automation demos by ue If I remember correctly showing different size and types of bodies wearing the same outfits, mightve been reallusion or something else, either way AAA devs would have access to the tools/knowledge to remodel the clothes to fit manually for their game.
