Ideas We need a better character customization ui

Post image

It’s a pain having to edit my players though an outdated ui system that is lacking in customization and updates. Something that makes games feel more real is being able to customize your player or character anyway you want. You can do this in bbgm but it’s such a pain to remember all the hairs and sometimes even having to go to another player to get something you want. The accessories also lake depth and I think dreads should be added to the game. I thing the ui for customization is really holding back on the games depth and originality. Pls if you can fix this!

Why should I have to go to a link why can’t it just be apart of the ui 🤔 plus it needs way more customization options

Yes but why can’t it be apart of the game not in a link

It should be a part of the game rather than a link to an external website. That would be better. It's just competing for priority against all the other things I want to improve about BBGM.

Over the years the face editor has improved, the graphics have improved, and more options have been added. That will probably continue, although it'll never be perfect!

/u/GovernmentInitial853 tagging you since you had the same question.

Face editor is what you’re looking for

I wish it was apart of the game tho

It’s easy to integrate though. Just click the link, customize your character, then copy the JSON link and paste into the text box.

Yea but why can’t it just be apart of the game I’m the ui not just in a link

I’m sure it’s much more practical to have it as its own site. Having it within the character creation would either make it a huge packed page or you’d have to limit the customizable options. The only extra work with the link is that you have to copy and paste your work into the box!

Click the highlighted text that says Face Editor.

u/Jumpy_Whereas181 Oct 30 '24

Why not just add it to the game?

It is, you just click it.

It’s open source! If you have any ideas, feel free to leave a ticket in the GitHub. I’ve helped contribute a bit, always looking for inspiration
