Standard Assets: Character Package (BETA)

Note: this project is work in progress and currently considered a beta. It contains dependency on packages such as our new Input System which is in preview, and as such will continue to be in beta so long as it relies on in Preview tech. We will ship this content as a package in 2019.

READ ME FIRST

This package is intended for use in 2019.1.8f1 so we recommend you follow suit as fixes to aspects we use like new input will be applied to a 2019.1.8f1 compatible package first.

Base Setup

Create a new Scene.
Make sure that the main scene camera has the Main Camera Tag set on it
Place a plane in the Scene to act as the floor and resize to preference.
Optional set-up for Movement Effects:
- Drag in Movement Zone Manager prefab.
- To change the level default effects, create a new LevelMovementZoneConfiguration via Create -> Standard Assets -> Characters -> Level Movement Zone Configuration and set it on this prefab
- Set the plane’s layer to Ground, in order for Third Person footsteps to work.

First Person Setup

Drag in the First Person prefab.

Third Person Setup

Drag in the Third Person (Male) prefab.
- Ensure that the Y value is greater than the Ground Plane’s Y value.
Drag in the Third Person Camera (Male) prefab.
There is also a female third person character. To use this instead, delete the male prefabs from the scene and drag in the female prefabs:
- Third Person (Female)
- Third Person Camera (Female)
