50. Character Armor Customization Part 2

       For this next armor customization update, I created a custom armor set inspired off of Link from the Legend of Zelda games and my personal favorite superhero... Iron Man! Due to the vast amount of customize-able options, creating all the art assets for players to choose from has been the most time consuming. I will explain how it works in further detail. From the menu, the player will be able to adjust the load-outs of their character. For the long-term project, new gear will become available when the player completes various missions or when goals are met. Players will start off with a basic armor set. Then they will be able to change different parts of their armor. The following options so far are: helmets, left shoulder, right shoulder, chest pieces, arms, gauntlets, legs, thighs, and backpacks.

       I might add the option to change knee guards and torso parts. I am also working on a way where players can add neon lighting for special effects. There are different types of categories for backpacks. There are jet-packs, capes and wings. They not only help with agility and speed, but jet-packs for instance will allow players to hover while jumping for a certain amount of time. The following pictures will fall under the category of Armor Presets in which players will have the option to purchase. Presets are pre-made armor sets inspired off of characters from a variety of sources such as games and movies  once I obtain certain rights. The armor sets for the most part take the same amount of damage, so they are purely cosmetic. This eliminates the issue of players having advantages over other players and the so called "pay-to-win" model. After all, playing "dress-up" with your character is fun.

Master Chief

       The following screenshots below are of the Master Chief's armor attached to the character marine model inspired from the model by 343 Industries from the game Halo 4. This is not the actual Master Chief model and its purely for fan-art out of my curiosity. The following screenshots are a work-in-progress and for non-profit just to be clear. This will not be in the actual game of-course so no copyright infringement. These armor load-out screenshots was taken from my phone and are running in-engine.
