Working in partnership at Very Very Spaceship with Niantic to co-develop new avatar features for Pokemon GO that allows you to express yourself like never before with a range of new avatar customization options. This update allows players to personalize their avatars with adjustable body weights, eye colors, skin tones, new facial expressions and hairstyles.

I worked primarily on the section of this update that allows you to customize your avatar’s body weight, muscle, shoulders, chest, and hips by converting legacy clothing articles to be able to fit all of these parameters. I personally fully converted around 200 articles of clothing but helped polish in some way nearly all 1000 assets. Using custom tools to prepare legacy articles in Maya and Photoshop for integration in Unity. Modifying while preserving existing 3D meshes, and UV’s. I bound the meshes to rigs and cleaning up transferred weights. I also set up color map masking for clothing combinations and interactions.
