Original Mallkin Deluxe vs the Mallkin 2000:
"What's the difference?"
This is a sequel to our Mallkin Deluxe Avatar from a few years back. While popular, it had lots of limitations that affected customizability, optimization, and quality. With this new character creator, we're utilizing a lot more of our experience as avatar makers to bring something that's even better, and a lot closer to the original vision. The way we've set this up means that we can also update it and add more to it as time goes on.
"Wait, so I build it in Unity? Why not radial dial customization like the old one?"
Yes! While the old avatar allowed for on the fly customization, it also made the avatar much more difficult to customize and edit, forcing lots of limitations. For an avatar with a few options, that's fine, but the Mallkin project has always been intended to give the user tons of choices. With our new system (using VRC Fury), we're able to deliver something that's more intimate, allows for higher quality textures/meshes, has MUCH more choices for customization, and offers better performance.
"Is it hard to build a Mallkin?"
Nope! It's as easy as dragging pieces and popping ‘em together like an action figure. We have an included tutorial (curated by Cake himself) to help you through it. So as long as you watch the included video, you hopefully won’t have any problems.
"Is there gonna be more stuff in the future?"
Yeah! We've created this system specifically to make it easier and better to make new bits and pieces for it. Ideally, we'll release more clothing packs in the future, but for now the Mallkin 2000 comes with everything from the original Deluxe avatar and much more. We'll be listening to feedback as well, so let us know and who knows what you might see in the future!
