Hi everyone!

We've been getting questions about this a lot. Whether or not this tool can be used outside of Unity, or whether it's possible to export the characters as textures or images.

Well, we've been experimenting with PNG exports for Character Creator 2D. It's not done yet, but it's getting there. You should be able to determine the resolution size and export a single image or animation as png sequences.

This could be useful for number of reasons. You could use the exported characters in your game engine of choices, you could make a portrait/avatar of your characters, or you could use this to generate characters for your next DND campaign.

And once this feature done, it should be possible to release a standalone version that doesn't require you to use Unity. 

To close this off, here's a preview of the png export results:

(please note, that the png export doesn't generate spritesheet, only sequence of png images)

Let us know what you think! :)

TLDR:

this feature is still in development. In the meantime, you can play around with Character Creator 2D in the main page: https://mochakingup.itch.io/cc2d
